Irish poem of prayer for protection (30 qq). According to the editor, O’Nowlan, qq. 1–19 represent the original extent of the poem, ending as it does with a dúnad, while the remainder (beg. Dá apstol déc Dé) is an invocation that was added to the text.

Early Irish litany of saints whose invocations are usually grouped into sevens, e.g. ‘the seven holy bishops of Druim Urchailli (Dunmurraghill)’. In the manuscripts, it is always preceded by a litany of pilgrim saints, which appears to have been a separate text originally.

Early Irish verse hymn ascribed to one Colmán mac Uí Cluasaig, lector in Cork. The first divison (ll. 1-38) is regarded as the original poem, which appears to be an adaptation of a Latin prayer. The next divison (ll. 39-47), itself perhaps of mixed origin, serves as an appendix. The final one, almost certainly a later addition, invokes the chief patron saints of Ireland (Brigit, Patrick and Columba).
