excessive tbirst should cause him 

 suii'ering ; and he was to perform thirty 

 paters in cross-vigil thereafter. From 

 nooturns to tierce, however, none was 

 permitted to take a drink though he 

 were at the point of death. As to the 

 infirm and old, however, the rigour of 

 the rule does not bind them to go with- 

 out any thing, like healthy persons. 

 This is what I have heard from Mael- 

 dithruib : this was the practice in 

 Lismore : — Different folk for different 

 hours : if a man. were very infirm, he 

 was to do some duty at tierce, another 

 man at midday, another at none, and 

 another in the afternoon, according to 

 each man's infirmity. A lad or youth 

 that gave up his body to Maelruain, such 

 would be excused from fasting when 

 they had made themselves liable to fast. 

 The feasts of the apostles in summer- 

 lent : he does not forbid the vigil to be 

 relaxed on these days. 



§ 49. ITow gathering of apples on a 

 Sunday or lifting a single apple from 

 the ground is not allowed among them. 

 In the case of one who does not eat 

 meat ho thinks it proper that he should 

 not be allowed to drink the broth thereof. 

 He does not think it right to prepare a 

 selann on a Sunday, but that it should 

 be done beforehand. 



§ 50. The course prescribed to a 

 wedded couple who are under spiritual 

 direction. From prime on Monday 

 to matins on Wednesday, for these 

 two days and nights they are given ex- 

 emption and licence both for meals and 

 conjugal intercourse. After that time 

 abstinence is imposed on them both 

 from flesh and intercourse, from matins
