In order not to pre-judge the matter, the two are distinguished in the present catalogue.

Old Irish poem (beg. ‘Fíl and grian Glinne Aí’) which uses kennings to describe a variety of foods at a banquet. It is accompanied by (a) a gloss which offers interpretations of a number of these kennings and (b) a prose account, according to which it was uttered either by Da Coca for Cormac Cond Longas, or by an apprentice of the poet Banbán as part of an educational test. In either case, the poem is said to describe a banquet (fuirec) of which they are about to partake.
