|Date=“A date in the mid-ninth century would be very possible, but an earlier date might be arguable [...] The features of ''Tánic sam'' which would suggest a date ''c''.800 (or earlier) are: npl. masc. adj. ''lúaith, léith'', § 2; ''sáim'' for later ''sám'', § 2; neut. ''fúam'', § ''díambi'', 3 sg. consuet. of copula, §§ 1, 3 etc.; ''ro-faith'', perf. of ''fedid'', § 5; ''for-berait'' (favoured by alliteration against, ''forbrit'' of MSS), § 7. Also ''dedlai'', 3 sg. fut. of ''dlongaid'' (?), ''fris-sil'', 3 sg. fut. of ''fris-slig'' if the interpretation of the text is sound. On the other hand, ''íach'' ‘salmon’ can hardly be very early, and suggests the late Old Irish or early Middle period. [...] Furthermore, we may note the word ''ocus'' in § 2. In early accentual verse there seems to be a tendency to avoid copulative conjunctions” (Carney).<ref>{{C|Carney 1971a|at=38, 39-40}}</ref> | |Date=“A date in the mid-ninth century would be very possible, but an earlier date might be arguable [...] The features of ''Tánic sam'' which would suggest a date ''c''.800 (or earlier) are: npl. masc. adj.

|commentary=7 qq. | |commentary=7 qq. The orthography has been modernised. James Carney (1971) suggests that it is a closely related but otherwise independent copy, probably deriving from the ‘lost’ Book of Glendalough. However, Pádraig Ó Riain (1981), who takes the view that the ‘Book of Glendalough’ refers to Rawl. B 502, sees no evidence of an independent transmission of the text. | ||
