One of the Commissioners for the Publication of the Ancient Laws of Ireland Late Principal of the Government Training College, Marlbcrough Street, Dublin Late President of the Royal Society of Antiquaries, Ireland THE LIFE OF A PEOPLE IS PICTURED IN THEIR SPEECH. LONDON : LONGMANS, GREEN, & CO. DUBLIN: M. H. GILL & SON, LTD. i\ 1910 . b PEEFACE. THIS book deals with the Dialect of the English Language that is spoken in Ireland. As the Life of a people according to our motto is pictured in their speech, our picture ought to be a good one, for two languages were concerned in it Irish and English. The part played by each will be found specially set forth in and VII and in farther detail Chapters IV ; throughout the whole book. The articles and pamphlets that have already appeared on this interesting subject which are described below are all short. Some are full of keen observation but are lists ; very many mere of dialectical words with their meanings. Here for the first time in this little volume of mine our Anglo-Irish Dialect is subjected to detailed analysis and systematic classification. I have been collecting materials for this book for more than not indeed twenty years ; by way of constant work, but off and on as detailed below. The sources from which these materials were directly derived are mainly the following. First. My own memory is a storehouse both of idiom and for the reason vocabulary ; good that from childhood to early manhood I spoke like those among whom I lived the rich dialect VI PREFACE.

It stands in the famine graveyard in Sligo. Conlon wrote this description of Faoin Sceach: This Bronze Tree stands as a symbol of dignity. It marks the final resting place of the unnamed dead of this area who perished in the Great Famine of 1845-1847. An Gorta Mór (The Great Hunger) was like a never-ending win­ ter. Its chill of desolation brought hunger, disease, and death. In Ireland the lone tree or Sceach was held in a position of high importance from early Celtic mythology to recent times. The boulder stones surrounding the base allude to ancient forms of burial.

They are shape- changers; they can grow small or grow large, they can take what shape they choose; they appear as men or women wearing clothes of many colours, of today or of some old forgotten fashion, or they are seen as bird or beast, or as a barrel or a flock of wool. They go by us in a cloud of dust; they are as many as the blades of grass. They are everywhere; their home is in the forths, the lisses, the ancient round grass-grown mounds. There are thorn-bushes they gather near and protect; if they have a mind for a house like our own they will build it up in a moment.

  • Songs of the Sidhe
    Songs of the Sidhe by David Ross Chapter One: Into the Otherworld Songs of the Sidhe by David Ross Development Team: Anthony Bulldis, Will Church, Marley Gable, Samuel Peer, David Ross, Ten Vee Kie Guest Developer (Dragons): Sean Surface Layout: David Ross Dicefreaks Logo: Tim Moore Additional Thanks: Jonathan Bloxsom, Serge W. Desir, Jr., Velson Horie, D. F. Sada, Robert Shaw, and the Dicefreaks community Poem adapted from “The Economy of Vegetation,” a work by Erasmus Darwin, now in the public domain. The following is an excerpt fromThe Wanderings of Hisolda the Wild, a tale recorded in the Age of Silence by Roshanara the Glorious: She knew not how long she was lost. The world and her path were hard to remember, like colorless dreams. She knew only that she now trod through pale mist, not quite as dense as snow, rather than the green grass of the ancient fey mound. Nothing could she see through the fog. Yet, she could still hear. Through the mist, slowly disappearing like a spring frost at dawn, came a clarion song. Hisolda could not make out words, but it seemed to rhyme, a rhythmic melody cycling and building slight differences with each repetition. At length, she found the fog’s edge beside a titanic blackthorn tree atop a low cliff. Beneath her lay the crashing, restless sea. Above her, in the barren boughs of the tree, pixies and ravens chattered amongst themselves and watched the starry sky. The stars were falling like petals in a breeze. Every measure of the song was punctuated by one of them crashing into the cliffs not far below her, each exploding in a different shade of red or blue.
