"The hymn which thou hast chosen in thy lifetime shall be a
protecting corslet to all :
around thee on the Day of Doom the men of Ireland will go to
Judgment."
Tassach remained behind him, when he gave him communion :
15 he said Patrice would soon come to them": Tassach 's word was not
false.
55 He set bounds to night, that light might not be spent therein :
for a year there was light, that was a long day of peace ^.
(During) the battle which was fought on Bethron against the people
20 of Canaan by the son of Nun,
the sun rested '••' (?) on Gibeon; that the writer tells us.

  31. This saying of Tassach that Patrick would soon return to Saul seems not to be found elsewhere. Lib. Ardm. 8» 2 has: adpropin- quante autem bora obitiis sui sacriticium ab episcopo Tassach, sicut illi Uictor anguelns dixit, ad uiaticum beutae uitae acceperat
  32. For a less extreme form of the miracle, cf. Lib. Ardm. 8» 1, and see further Trip. Life 255, 487
