Scél saltrach na rann
prose

A prose redaction of the Middle Irish biblical poem Saltair na rann. Myles Dillon distinguishes between two main recensions of the tract, which are most fully represented by the (incomplete) versions in the Leabhar Breac and the Book of Uí Maine respectively. The first section in the Leabhar Breac, covering the narratives from Creation to Adam and Eve, has no extant counterpart in the the Book of Uí Maine. (There is also a prose summary corresponding to the first section. It is found as a commentary to the note on place (locc) in the Pseudo-historical prologue to the Senchas Már).
