 of my monks that shall hearken to me," 

 said Maelxuarn, "and keep my Eule, 

 shall not need to be cleansed by the fire 

 of Doomsday, nor to come to Judgment, 

 because they shall be clean already. 

 Thy monks, ho'W"eTer, shall perchance 

 have somewhat for the fire of Doom to

 praying to God. "Be off with you 

 then! " said he: "misfortune take your 

 face ! " Instantly thereupon Cainchom-
