Chapter XXXI: Appendix: C (5)
[390] So I would amend the corrupt _metuendis_. Ellis reads _tetricis_, and suggests _mediis_. But there is greater point in _nudis_; it implies “without the crops, etc., which would naturally attract an enemy.”

[392] Pp. 16-18, and Appendix B.
[393] Cp. Arrian’s _Cynegeticus_, esp. chaps. 1, 2, 3.
[394] The nature of the cargo is another argument against the view that Britain was the destination.
[395] _Annis_ xxx. Tír. _loc. cit._ The numeral is less probably a mistake for iii. than the result of a mistaken attempt to account for the chronology of Patrick’s life on the hypothesis that he lived to the age of 120. Other schemes assigned 30 or 40 years to the Auxerre period (Muirchu, 271₂₂).
[396] For the traditions and legends connecting Palladius with Scotland see Skene, _Celtic Scotland_, ii. 29 _sqq._
[397] Schoell, _De ecclesiasticae Britonum Scotorumque historiae fontibus_, 1851, p. 77; Loofs, _De antiqua Britonum Scotorumque ecclesia_, p. 51 (1882). Compare B. Robert’s criticisms on their arguments, _Étude critique_, etc., pp. 28 _sqq._
[398] Professor Zimmer (_Early Celtic Church_, p. 38) regards Palladius as a Roman rendering of Patrick’s name Sucatus (warlike), following a suggestion of Mr. O’Brien (_Irish. Eccl. Record_, 1887, pp. 723 _sqq._). This is quite unconvincing, in the absence of any evidence that Palladius was a Briton. Why should he not have belonged to the _stirps Palladiorum_ of Bourges (Apoll. Sidon. _Epp._ vii. 9, 24)? Cp. Duchesne, _Fastes épisc._ ii. p. 26, _note_.
[399] P. cxxv. ed. Stokes (1871). This calendar, Mr. Stokes has shown, cannot be earlier than the end of the tenth century.
[400] The name of Palladius does not appear in any Irish calendar of saints. It appears under July 6 in the Breviary of Aberdeen. See Todd, _St. Patrick_, p. 299.
[401] Cp. _Chron. Scot._ pp. 24-25; Cormac’s _Glossary_ sub _Mogheime_.
[402] M. d’Arbois de Jubainville has a note on Sen Patrick in _Revue celtique_, ix. p. 111 _sqq._ He thinks a second Patricius came over to Ireland as a mere name in a copy of the Hieronymian Martyrology towards end of sixth century; and that of him were made the two Patricks of August 24 in _Mart. of Tallaght_.
[403] See Bury, “Tradition of Muirchu’s Text,” p. 205.
[404] The name of this place, whether in the form _Ebmoria_ (_Lib. Arm._) or in the variant form _Euboria_ (for the variants see Bury, “Tradition of Muirchu’s Text,” p. 185) is unknown. The context shows that it lay between Auxerre and the north coast of Gaul. Ebroica = Evreux would be my guess. (It probably became the seat of a bishop before the end of the fifth century, but probably not long before. Cp. Duchesne, _Fastes ép._ ii. 226).
[405] On the evidence for this date see _note_ 15 in my “Sources of Early Patrician Documents” (_E.H.R._, July 1904), where I refer to the discussion of Dr. W. Levison in his monograph cited above, Appendix A, i. 7.
[406] _Nennius Vindicatus_, p. 123, _note_. Later compilers divided _Amatho rege_. In Irish conditions a _rex episcopus_ would not sound so strange as in Gaul, though I do not know of an instance before Cormac of Cashel at the beginning of the tenth century. In _Tripartite Life_ (p. 34) we get a further step in the evolution; the bishop appears as Amatho rí Románach (King of the Romans); and the final stage is reached when Patrick is ordained _coram Teodosio imperatore_.
[407] I pointed out this inference in “Sources of Early Patrician Documents” (_cit. sup._).
[408] _Ann. Ult. s.a._ 439. For the separate coming of Iserninus see account in _Lib. Arm._ f. 18 rᵒ a (342, Rolls ed.). It is there indeed supposed that they started at the same time from Gaul, but were severed by storms, and so arrived separately in Ireland. The motive for this tale is evidently the genuine record that they did not come together.
[409] There are three cases (Zimmer, _ib._ 24-26):
1. Long ō instead of long ā: _e.g._ _trindōit_ (= _trinitatem)_; _altōir_ (= _altāre)_; _caindlōir_ (_candelarius_); _notlaic_ (_nātalicia_); _popa_ (_papa_). If the Latin forms had come directly to Ireland, the ā would have been preserved; ō for ā is characteristically British.
2. _c_ for _p_: _casc_ (_pascha_); _crubthir_ (_presbyter_). Words of this kind must have been “interpreted to the Irish by British mouths,” for if they had been borrowed from Latin, _p_ would have been preserved. The motive for the change of _British p_ to _c_ in the loan-words was the observed fact that in native words Gaelic _c_ corresponded to British _p_ (representing the velar _q_). The treatment of Patrick’s name is a significant instance. From its British form we get in Irish _Coithrige_, from its Latin form _Patraicc_. _Caille_, a veil (_caillech_, a nun), is supposed to be another case (= _pallium_). Mr. Nicholson suggests that it is Celtic, = _capillia_ (_Keltic Researches_, p. 104).
3. _sr_ for _fr_, _sl_ for _fl_: _e.g._ _slechtan_ (_flectionem_), _srogell_ (_flagellum_). In case of a direct borrowing, _sr_, _sl_ would have been kept; but coming through British they were treated on the analogy of Irish _sruth_ = Br. _frut_.
[410] _Tracia_ being an error for _Frācia_.
[411] The prose list in the _Book of Ballymote_ describes both Duachs as Tenga Uma (and as slain by Muirchertach), but in the case of the first _Duach Galach_ is written above.
[412] Dai Galach is mentioned as Brian’s youngest son, and destined to reign in Connaught, in the text printed, with translation, by Dr. W. Stokes, from the _Yellow Book of Lecan_ (col. 898), concerning the sons of Eochaid Muigmedoin, in _Rev. Celt._ xxiv. (1903), p. 182.
[413] The notice is discussed by Todd, _St. Patrick_, pp. 469-70, but he does not attempt any explanation of _probatus est_, and by omitting the first part of the notice altogether he shows that he did not apprehend the significant association of the _probatio_ with Leo.
[414] _Nostra provincia_ is ecclesiastical Ireland, or north Ireland—not a particular district or kingdom.
[415] The _Vit. Trip._ (Part 3, p. 238) places the visit to Rome _after_ the foundation of Armagh. This order seems to be simply an inference from the fact that the relics which Patrick got at Rome were brought to Armagh.
[416] The references are to Gundlach’s ed., _Epp. Mer. et Kar. Aeui_, vol. i.
[417] Mr. Warren rightly rejects the pregnant meaning found in this passage by Döllinger (_Liturgy and Ritual_, p. 39).
[418] _difficiles_ is in three MSS., including the Coloniensis (eighth century): it is clearly wanted, and (if there was not some stronger and fuller phrase in the original canon) it has a very pregnant meaning.
[419] I believe that the silence of Cummian in his letter to Segéne (Migne, _P.L._ 87, 970) has been urged as an objection to the authenticity of the canon. But the argument from silence in such a case as this has no cogency. It is quite possible that he was not aware of the canon.
[420] See B. Krusch, _Der 84jährige Ostercyclus und seine Quellen_, 1880.
[421] Columbanus, _Epp._ ed. Gundlach, Ep. 4, p. 162.
[422] _Ib._ Ep. 1 (to Gregory I.), p. 157; _Catal. Sanct. Hib., unum Pascha, quarta decima luna post aequinoctium vernale_ (H. and S., _Councils_, ii. 292, 293).
[423] Dr. MacCarthy’s explanation (Introd. to _Annals of Ulster_, iv. p. lxxix) of an entry in the Chronicle of Marius Aventicensis (ad ann. A.D. 560), as implying a survival of the old 84 cycle in Gaul, does not seem tenable (see A. Anscombe, _Z. f. Celtische Philologie_, iv. p. 333).
[424] I have omitted all reference to the abstruse technique of the computations, and the question as to the difference between the two cycles of 84 (differing in the number of the _saltus_), for which see MacCarthy, _op. cit._ pp. lxv. _sqq._; Krusch, _op. cit._
[425] For dating, see MacCarthy, _op. cit._ cxl. cxli.
[426] Migne, _Patrol._ 87, 969.
[427] Krusch, 302 _sqq._ For dating, see MacCarthy, _op. cit._ cxvii., where the proof of fabrication will be found.
[428] So MacCarthy, cxxxvii., note 2.
[429] Dr. MacCarthy shows that Cummian was uncritical (cxl.), but I cannot go quite so far as he. He accepts, as genuine tradition, the statement that Patrick brought a cycle with him (rightly observing that the addition of _et fecit_ cannot be pressed), but holds that it was identical with the Celtic cycle of later times. It is with much diffidence that I venture to differ from him on this point; but I owe it to his investigations that I have been able to reach a definite conclusion.
[430] The learned Appendix A, pp. 123 _sqq._, in Reeves, _Eccl. Ant._, is valuable still.
[431] Ed. Gundlach, _M.G.H., Epp. Mer. et Kar. Aeui_, i. p. 163. See Jerome, _Ep._ 58 (Migne, 22, 583).
[432] 450 in Tírechán and one MS. of _Catal. Sanctorum_; 350 in other MSS. of _Cat. Sanct._
[433] It is not, of course, certain that Bishop Muirethachus _qui fuit super flumen Bratho_, for whom Patrick and Bronus wrote an alphabet, is identical with the _epscop Muiredaig_, “an aged man of Patrick’s household,” who is said in _Vit. Trip._, p. 134, to have been left by Patrick in Cell Alaid. The foundation of Cell Alaid is not mentioned by Tírechán.
[434] The text of Tírechán leaves it doubtful whether the foundation of Cellola Tog was laid under Patrick’s auspices, and whether Patrick ordained Cainnech bishop. He is not included in the author’s catalogue of bishops ordained by Patrick (p. 304).
[435] For the _monachi_ of Assicus, see 313₃₃ and 328₃₀.
[436] Cainnech was a _monachus Patricii_, 324₁₃. Another _mon. P._ is mentioned 329₉. The deacon Coimanus of Ardd Licce seems to have been another, 317₂₆. Gengen and Sannuch are described as _mon. P._ 305₁₇; and for the foreigners _Conleng and Ercleng_, see 313₁₂.
[437] Thus Slébte, the seat of Bishop Fíacc, would have been a _civitas_. It is called _Slebtiensis civitas_ by Muirchu (271₁₉). See also _Lib. Angeli_, 355, _omnis aeclessia libera et civitas <quae> ab episcopali gradu uidetur esse fundata_. Cp. an Irish canon, ascribed to Patrick, in the _Hibernensis_, 29, c. 7 (p. 101 ed. Wasserschl.), _aut a sancta ecclesia aut in civitate intus_.
[438] 326₂₁, _quia deus dixit illi ut legem relinquerent_ [?—_et_, as Stokes suggests] _et episcopos ordinaret ibi, et prespiteros et diaconos in illa regione_. This suggests, though it does not necessitate, the inference in the text.
[439] _Senchus Mór_, i. 40. See also the following passages: i. 54 (a false-judging king and a stumbling bishop are placed on a level); i. 78, the king’s testimony is valid against all except the man of learning, the bishop, and the pilgrim.
[440] In his treatment of the Muirchu narrative Todd does not go below the surface, but he recognises that the first part embodies a concession on the part of Armagh. The question is discussed in Reeves, _Eccl. Antiquities_, 223 _sq._
[441] The simplest case is when an incident is reduplicated, as in the Cyclops story in the _Odyssey_ (Book 9), where the second stone-casting of the Cyclops at the escaping ship is a later addition by an expander who sought to outdo the original incident but failed in his effect.
[442] I may note here that the river Cabcenne, where the Orior men discovered the deception, has not been identified, but ought naturally to be sought near their destination, Armagh. So Todd, p. 195.
[443] In his article “Keltische Kirche” in the _Realencyklopädie für protestantische Theologie u. Kirche_, 1901; translated by Miss Meyer (_The Celtic Church in Britain and Ireland_), 1902.
[444] In Bede’s _Martyrology_, under March 17, we find _in Scotia S. Patricii Confessionis_. Zimmer (p. 10) accepts this, without question, as Bedan. I should like to know how far we can distinguish in this document what is Bede’s from later additions.
[445] There is, however, another consideration which may be taken into account by those who wonder at the absence of any reference to Patrick in Bede’s _Ecclesiastical History_. The Latin literature concerning St. Patrick only began to appear in Bede’s time. Tírechán’s _Memoir_ cannot have been written long before his birth; and he was nearly thirty years old when Muirchu’s _Life_ was composed. The older Patrician literature, as we have seen reason to believe, was in Irish, and inaccessible to Bede. The Columban church in north Britain was not concerned to propagate the fame of Patrick. There was rivalry between the Columban and Patrician communities in Ireland (cp. Tírechán, 314₈).
[446] As I observed above (p. 262) if Muirchu’s work were anonymous and nothing were said of Aed, we should never suspect that the author belonged to the south of Ireland; we should certainly connect him with north Ireland.
[447] The particular passage on which Zimmer relies—the only _positive_ evidence—is in the “Additions” to Tírechán in the _Liber Armachanus_ (p. 332, Rolls ed.), where Palladius is said to have been called _Patricius alio nomine_, but is distinguished from the second Patrick. But this can be otherwise explained. The double date of Patrick’s death (see Appendix C, 7) led to a duplication—a first and a second Patrick, and one attempt to fix the personality of the earlier Patrick was to identify him with Palladius.

SOME PRESS NOTICES
_GUARDIAN._—“Professor Bury may be heartily congratulated on the successful performance of a most difficult task. He has written a thoroughly satisfactory History of Greece in a single volume, and produced a book of value not only for students at school and at the Universities, but also for scholars of maturer years and judgment.”
_SATURDAY REVIEW._—“Professor Bury has supplied a real want. At last we have to hand in a single volume a History of Greece which is at once comprehensive, critical, and up to date—a history, moreover, which may be read not only with profit but with pleasure.... Will, no doubt, be found useful even by specialists. To schoolmasters and tutors it is a veritable Godsend.”
_SPECTATOR._—“Told with such clearness, fulness, and sense of proportion that the book will stand as a model for a one-volume history, rivalled only by J. R. Green’s similar work on the English people.... It has all the qualities of accuracy, lucidity, and art in arrangement which are the special merits of a short history. The book also contains numerous excellent illustrations.”
_PILOT._—“Recognising in Professor Bury exceptional erudition, untiring industry, brilliant scholarship, and a marked genius for historical study, we expected much from his _History of Greece_. We may say in a word our expectations are more than realised.”
_Globe 8vo. 3s. 6d._
A History of Greece for Beginners
_Two Volumes. 8vo. 32s._
A History of the Later Roman Empire
From Arcadius to Irene, A.D. 395-800
_CLASSICAL REVIEW._—“Mr. Bury’s volumes are an important and valuable contribution to our knowledge of a period the history of which has been too much neglected by scholars.”
_ATHENÆUM._—“This scholarly and vigorous work.”
_EDINBURGH REVIEW._—“His illustrative matter is, on the whole, ample and correct.”
_OXFORD MAGAZINE._—“The bright and attractive chapters on literature and on social life, which are scattered among the more solid matter, deserve a word of special praise.”
