§ 11. Aos aithrigi "tr« iudi chetamus 



Maeldithruib sings Celehra Juda and 

 Cantemus and Avertefaciem, and soforth, 

 and thereafter Shjmmim dioat, this last 

 iu a cross-yigil. Then the Beati of 

 5 nocturns, and along with it the Magni- 

 ficat. As to the Beati of the refectory, 

 however, the Magnificat and Wymnum 

 and Unitas are sung with it, and Ego uero 

 orationem, and so forth. But on Sunday 



xo night the -S^rt^j is sung twice over. The 

 Psalms of prayer are sung on Saturday 

 night and Sunday night at vespers. 

 It is also his custom to recite on Sunday 

 nights a table grace and thanksgiving. 



15 Immediately after dinner he sings 

 Arerte faciem to a chant ; after it a 

 prayer, Cohimia sanote, sume nos in 

 gremio. Caritatis tutela tuae sit nobis. 

 After that, Stephen, help me ! guard 

 with thy head my heart against the 

 snares of death ! holy fire, save the 

 household of my dwelling ! Let there 

 be no pains nor torments, et reliqua. 

 Then he crosses himself. 



§ 9. If anyone eats before the proper 



20 hour, a fast is the penalty for it, or to 

 be put on bread and water the nest 

 evening. 



§ 10. AlsoMaclriiain did not approve 

 of listening to music. There was a cer- 



25 tain piper, Cornan, who lived in Descert 

 Lagen, and he was an anchorite. They 

 called him Cornan of the Glen (that is, 

 of Glen Essa), a man of grace. Presents 

 used to be sent to liim from Maebuain. 



30 He said once to Maelruain's monks, " I 

 would crave a boon," said he, "to play 

 a tune to the cleric." Then Maelruain 

 made answer, " Say to Cornan," said 

 he, " these ears are not lent to earthly 

 music that they may be lent to the 

 music of Heaven."
