|Description=The text relates that the poet Dallán Forgaill composed the ''Amra'' for Columba on the occasion of the convention at Druim Cett, where the abbot secured the release of [[Scandlán mac Colmáin|Scandlán Mór]], negotiated terms of peace between Ireland and the Irish settlers of Scotland and saved the learned classes from expulsion (Dallán recited it after the abbot's death). The story varies in length and detail from one manuscript version to another.<!-- Those in LU, which may represent the earliest extant version (Kenney), and the ''Liber Hymnorum'' (TCD 1441) are relatively short, while manuscripts such as Rawlinson B 502 offer a considerably longer tale and cite additional verses.{{Note|The editors of the ''Liber Hymnorum'' text subdivide the preface into a ''praefatio'' and an introduction proper beginning ‘Locus huius artis Druim Cetta ...’.}}--->
