The Colloquy With The Ancients (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162691121)

The Colloquy With The Ancients is a book by Standish Hayes O'Grady that delves into the mythology and legends of ancient Ireland. The book is written in the form of a dialogue between the author and various characters from Irish mythology, including the legendary warrior Cuchulainn, the god Lugh, and the goddess Morrigan. Through these conversations, O'Grady explores the themes of heroism, magic, and the supernatural in Irish folklore, and provides a fascinating insight into the culture and beliefs of ancient Ireland. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in Irish mythology and folklore, and provides a unique perspective on the rich history and traditions of this ancient culture.There they were until the morrow's morning came, when Patrick robed himself and emerged upon the green; together with his three score priests, three score psalmodists, and holy bishops three score as well, that with him disseminated faith and piety throughout Ireland. Patrick's two guardian angels came to him now: Aibellan and Solusbrethach, of whom he enquired whether in God's sight it were convenient for him to be listening to stories of the Fianna.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
