Two medieval Irish saints’ lives, edited from manuscripts including one copied by Brother Michael O’Clery: Declan, the bishop of Ardmore, and Mochuda, founder of Lismore. Power’s 1914 edition prints the texts with translation, introduction and notes, and the legends are full of miracles, kings and tricks such as a pagan serving dog meat as mutton.

Essential reading for anyone curious about early Irish Christianity and the Waterford saints. Download the free EPUB.
