FEOM IRISH MANUSCRIPTS

Preface 

The series of liitlierto inedited Irish texts, of which 

this is the first instalment, has been undertaken with the 

object of furnisliing- fresh material for investigation to the 

increasing number of workers in Irish philology and 

literature, especially those to whom tlie original manu- 

scripts are inaccessible. It is also hoped that it will 

provide handy text-books for students. 

While the collection is to consist mainly of pieces 

never before printed, otlier copies or different versions of 

important texts already published will be included when 

it is considered that they contribute materially to their 

interpretation and reconstruction. No text already pub- 

lished in facsimile will be admitted. An exception is 

made, however, in the case of the Yellow Boole of Lecan, 

the facsimile of this most important of Irish MSS. being 

so often unreadable or untrustworthy. 

In printing the texts no attempt is made either to 

provide a diplomatic transcript or to construct a critical 

edition. The more common compendia such as those for 

at; air, con, for, us &c. are silently expanded, but italics 

are used in all doubtful cases. Punctuation, hyphens and 

capitals have been introduced for clearness' sake. Addi- 

tions and corrections by later hands are put in paren-

VI Preface 

theses or indicated as such in the footnotes. In order to 

ensure the greatest possible accuracy every document 

printed has been compared with the original MS. by one 

or the other of the editors. 

Each volume of the series will be complete in itself. 

While it is hoped to issue a volume every six months, 

their regular appearance will depend largely on the 

measure of support accorded. 

Thanks are due to Mr. Whitley Stokes for kindly 

placing at the disposal of the editors his transcript of 

the version of Cain Emine Bain from the British Museum 

MS. Additional 30,512. 

Dublin, June 1907

The quatrain on p. 6, 1.11 above is quoted in the glossary 

of H. 3. 18, col. 73c, as follows: 

roptene .i. gairge ut dixit Cano 

Ni urg eona in niuige . ni impu mo roptene* 

ni [e]adh domuci o Sci . coccad [fri] geisi Ceirne 

There is a copy of the poem on p. 14 in the Stowe MS. B. 

IV 2, fo. 149 a, written in 1628 by Michael O'Clery. The following 

are the most important variants.

P. 54, § 29: the MS. has tolga, with a dot under I and another 

between g and a, and d inserted over the line before 

a. The corrector probably wanted to read togda. 

P. 70, § 179. It is doubtful whether the dot over ndele is in- 

tended for n or d. In the latter case it would be 

a punctum delens.

Cain Domnaig 21 

Cain Domnaig 

Cain Domnaig, or Law of Sunday, may he said to consist of 

three parts: 

a) The Epistle of Jesus concerning Sunday. 

h) Three examples of supernatural punishment for the 

transgression of Sunday, 

c) The Cain Domnaig proper, a laio tract on the ob- 

servation of Sunday and the fines and punishments to 

be exacted for its violation. 

The text of a) together with a translation is given in Eriu, 

vol. II, p. 189; that of b) is given in Zeitschrift fiir Celtische 

Philologie, vol. Ill, p. 228: here folloivs the text of c) taken from 

Harleian MS. 5280 (British Museum), fo. 38a, ivith the more 

important variant readings from MS. 23 N 10 (Eoyal Irish 

Academy) p. 108. For an enumeration of other copies of Cain 

Domnaig see Eriu, vol. II, p. 189.

SANAS CORMAIC 

AN OLD-IRISH GLOSSARY 

COMPILED BY 

CORMAC ÚA CUILENNÁIN 

KING -BISHOP OF CASHEL IN THE TENTH CENTURY 

EDITED FROM THE COPY 

IN THE YELLOW BOOK OF LECAN BY 

KUNO MEYER 

PROFESSOR OF CELTIC IN THE UNIVERSITY OF BERLIN

Í 

Preface 

The text of Cormac's Glossary which is here printed 

is based upon a transcript from the Yellow Book of Lecan, 

made many years ago by Whitley Stokes. This transcript, 

which Mrs. Boothby kindly placed at my disposal after her 

father's death, I collated in the first instance with the 

photographic facsimile published by the Royal Irish Aca- 

demy. When all but the last sheet was printed off I had 

an opportunity of collating the whole with the original 

manuscript. I then found that Stokes or I had in many 

cases silently altered the spellings of the manuscript 

where these needed correction, and in Latin words often 

substituted the normal for the peculiar Irish spelling. 

Besides I was repeatedly able to decipher better some 

letters which were obscure in the facsimile, i) Of these 

corrigenda I have relegated those which do not affect the 

sense or are otherwise of no great moment to a list by 

themselves at the end of the volume. There remain however 

a number of more serious errors and misprints to be cor- 

rected of which I subjoin a list here in order to at once 

draw the reader's attention to them. 

*) This was particularly the case on the first page which 

in the facsimile (p. 255 = col. 1) is much blurred. In several 

doubtful cases I applied to my friend Mr. K. I. Best to whom 

several improvements on my readings are due.

VI Sanas Cormaic 

§ 31, robiatJiais. This impossible form is corrected into 

rohiathad in the MS. 

ib., before ./. imed insert dicitur. 

§ 32, instead of on read an with the MS. 

§ 35, „ „ ala „ andcda with the MS. 

§ 37, „ „ 

.i. hais read A. has with the MS. 

§ 43, „ „ ainm hais read ainm bass with the MS. 

§ 94, for eillned read eillned. 

§ 141, last line, after coire insert sin. 

§ 150, instead of cuius read quarum (qifaram MS). 

§ 204, „ „ nominis read non, and for Cormaic read 

CormsiC. The MS has the suspension wo, which 

Stokes read as nomen. It is used for that word 

by the scribe on p. 261 a 17, 263 b 38, 263 c 25 &c. 

But on p. 264 b 14 and 266 c 24 he employs no for 

non. The meaning of the passage then would be 

'not Cormac without b'. 

§ 240, for read on, 

§ 264, „ a cicul so read ./. a ciculo (ciculoo MS). 

§ 279, read candelaforum with the MS, and cf. Isid. XX 10,3. 

§ 283, „ unde read ut {v MS). So in § 284 for [unde] 

read [ufj. 

p. 24, note 2, for dirrig read diriiig. 

§ 294, for coll read colt. 

§ 304, „ 

puino read puinc. 

p. 27, note 2, for ietcil read Ictcil. 

§ 371, after dicitur insert crocangel .i. 

§ 372, above the n of cinaid a later hand has inserted 

sn, as if the etymology of the word were cin snaid. 

% 376, for caimpar read caimper. 

§ 383, for cacht read cucht.

§ 401, „ om read n-om. 

Sanas Cormaic 

§ 434, Mr. Best confirms my reading arnaba. 

§ 467, Mr. Best reads ./. after dero. 

% 478, for deleg ex read delegec. 

§ 524, „ [p. 265'] read [p. 266\ 

§ 570, „ Ee the MS has two capital e's. Stokes read 

VII 

this esse, but there is no top stroke as is usual in 

this compendium, which occurs e. g. on p. 274 b 29. 

Still, esse is probably the right reading. 

§ 571, for nomen read perhaps non (no MS). 

§ 576, „ Gaoidel read nGaoidel. 

§ 649, here cap-fell is meant as an etymology of capall, 

as if it were cap-fell. 

§ 690, 1. 7, for Grith the MS seems to have grcth. 

p. 60, 1. 4, „ caier read Caier. 

§ 747, for my arose daind, Mr. Best reads arose aind. 

§ 851, after didiu insert .i. 

§ 874, „ ond insert d. ond. 

§ 893, for ob read ah. 

§ 970, „ Cceirnech read Cairnech. 

§ 1000, for blegar read mhlegar. 

p. 96, 1. 12, before dar insert slighe. 

In the foot-notes I have given some of the most im- 

portant variants when these either yield older forms or 

better sense. For these I have consulted the following 

manuscripts i) 

: 

1) The only copy of Cormac's Glossary which 1 have not 

consulted at all is that in the Book of Húi Maine, fol. 177ai 

to 184a\ 1. 15, breaking off like L in the article tuirigein.

VIII Sanas Cormaic 

LB, but B from § 756 (where L begins) onwards, 

= Lebor Brecc, facs. pp. 263 a— 272 b, printed by Stokes 

in his Three Irish Glossaries (1862), pp. 1— 44. 

E^ = H. 2. 15, pp. 13—37 and 77—102, on which 

see Stokes, 1. c. p. VIII and Abbott, Catalogue, p. 327. 

^"2 = H. 3. 18, pp. 61—87, published by Stokes in 

the Transactions of the Philological Society, London, 1859. 

This is not a copy of Cormac's Glossary, but many of the 

entries are identical. 

L = Laud 610, fol. 79 a—84 a, a fragment con- 

taining only §§ 756—1224, printed and translated by Stokes, 

Transactions 1901. 

LL = Book of Leinster, p. 179, a fragment con- 

taining the end of § 1224, printed by Stokes, Three 

Ir. Gl., pp. 44 and 45. 

Harl. = Harleian 5280, fol. 75, containing only 

§§ 883 and 1059. As these two articles belong to an 

older period than that of Cormac I print them here in 

extenso^ adding also the version of the article priUl from 

23 N 10, p. 74.

A handy and cheap edition of Cormac's Glossary has 

long been a want felt by many students of Irish. When 

Stokes in 1862 brought out his eclitio princeps from the 

Lebar Brecc, he warned the reader that it was a mere 

exóoaiq, the time for óiOQ&cóúíig of Celtic texts not 

having yet arrived. So slow has been the progress of 

Irish studies that fifty years later we have still to be 

content with mere éxóóoeiq. In the case of our Glossary 

a critical edition would have to be based not only upon 

a collation and stemma of all existing MSS, but would 

also involve a minute study of the language, so as to 

separate the genuine articles from later additions, and if 

i) 

possible to establish Cormac's authorship ; a definition 

of the relationship of Cormac's work to such other com- 

pilations as that which goes by the name of O'Mulconry, 2) 

1) See CZ VIII p. 178. To the evidence there collected 

we may add § 1103, where a quatrain on Cenn-gécáÍD, Cormac's 

predecessor on the throne of Cashel, is quoted, and § 140, where 

one of the tributes of the king of Cashel is mentioned. 

*) Stokes unaccountably assigns this glossary to the 13*^1 

or 14tii century. It belongs undoubtedly to the Old-Irish period, 

as the verbal and other forms collected by Stokes on pp. 222 

and 22;j prove. To these may be added hue 779, the neuter 

a cétleth 417, the inf. do buith 467, 604, and the part. nee. 

huithi 300. The quatrain quoted in § 180 was not composed

XVIII Sanas Cormaic 

or the Dull Dromma Ceta ; ^) an investigation of the various 

sources used by Cormac or his predecessors; 2) the tracing 

and verification of his quotations, ^) and an examination 

of his knowledge of Latin, Greek and Hebrew. On all 

these points since the slender information contained in 

Stokes' preface no progress has been made. 

It is probable that the Irish took the idea of alpha- 

betical etymological glossaries from the tenth book of 

Isidore's Etymologiae ('De Vocabulis'), on whose methods 

their own etymological speculations are founded. The 

very first entry in our Glossary is taken either from 

Isidore VII 6, 3 or direct from Jerome's interpretation 

by Flann Mainistrech, as Stokes assumes on p. 234, but by Flann 

mac Lonáin, who died in 918. A post-Norse redaction is proved 

by the quotation of Norse words in §§ 100, 183 and 507. 

1) Preserved in H. 3. 18, pp. 63 — 83 (printed by Stokes in 

the Transactions of the Philological Society 1859, pp. 170—21o) 

and in Egerton 1782, fol. 15aff. It is mentioned as one of the 

dúili bélrai in the metrical treatise, Ir. T. Ill p. 50. 

2) Some of these are cited in the preface to O'Mulconry's 

Glossary. The Virgilius mentioned there is not the Roman 

poet, but the 5 th century grammarian Virgilius Maro. 

^) I have occasionally added references in the foot-notes; 

but much more remains to be done. Thus the quatrain quoted 

in § 398 is taken from a poem the end of which is found in 

LL 43 a (see 1. 50) , while two complete copies have been preserved 

by Michael O'Clery in BIV2, pp. 79 b and 132 a. The 

beginning of this poem is A clwicid cáin Cairpri chrúaid, and 

its author, as I hope to prove some day, is Grthanach úa 

CóiUáma. — The quatrain of which the first line only is quoted 

in § 369 is found complete in H. 3. 18, p. 66. It is the 29 th 

stanza of a poem preserved in 23 N 10, p. 17, where it has the 

heading Vga CorbmsAc nmc Culendain.

of Hebrew names, i) Bat while many definitions and 

derivations tally with those given by Isidore, 2) others 

differ. 3) Lastly it will have to be investigated whether 

such derivations as that of ecloga from aiS, and Xoyog 

(§ 561) and of episcopus^) from ijii, xai and «/?/?« are 

Cormac's own or taken from older sources. 

K. M. 

1) Cited as Hebraeicanum Hironitni in the preface to 

O'Malconry's Glossary. 

2) So § 72 = Isid.Vl2, 43; §99 (leg. aiíávag) =V38, 4; 

§ 101 = VIII 11, 20-21; § 116 = XVI 4 ; § 167 = XVIII 21; 

§ 223 = X 153; § 325 = V31,7; § 339 = XV 16, 9 (where for 

Cormac's ferariim Isidore has pecudiim); § 352 = VII 12, 1 (where 

Cormac's eledus corresponds to Isidore's de sorte); § 750 = 

VII 1,15; §751 = VIII 11, 13; § 76S = 119,8 (where for Cor- 

mac's intentio Isidore has concept'w); § 875 = X 182 (cf. II. 3. 18, 

82b, where meritoriae tahernae comes from Isidore); § 890 = 

XII 7, 69; § 1297 = X 115, so that we should read humo 

[ad]cUnis. 

3) Thus Cormac's derivation of apostolus (77) varies from 

that given by Isidore (VII 9, 1); similarly that of frater (111), 

cf. Isid. IX 6, 5, and of diluvium (480), cf. Isid. XIII 22, 1. While 

Cormac §65 renders oQXÓq by 'excelsus', Isidore VII 5, 6 has 

' princeps '.
