This is suggested, first, by the scribal signature at the end of the MS and second, by the prominence accorded to St Ruadán and other midland saints. Similarly Ó Cuív observes that the Múscraige Tíre are given special treatment in the secular genealogies written by the third main scribe (ff. 23r-36v), again suggesting the Lorrha area as a likely place of writing.

A small remnant from this bygone age survives into the time of St Patrick’s advent in Ireland: aged, weakened and sorrowful, Finn’s son Oisín and Finn’s nephew Caílte still wander about, each with a band of followers. One day, having travelled to the area of Louth, they seek hospitality for the night and find a welcome and lavish reception in the home of Lady Cáma, who used to be Finn’s guardian. Oisín and Caílte part ways.
