Irish story of Silvius
prose
A short Irish account of Silvius, son of Ascanius and father of Brutus of Troy. The text is indebted to the Irish adaptation of the Historia Brittonum known as Lebor Bretnach, which it quotes in places, but also adds material to it, such its opening passage on Vulcan the smith.

Temaile fáid Miled Espáin
prose
A prose passage in the Book of Leinster about a certain Temaile or Témaile, a prophet (fáid) of Míl Espáine whose name is associated with Druim Témaile (place unidentified). Because the outer edge of the manuscript page is worn, the text is now only partly legible.
