The Martyrology of
Oengus the Culdee 4. April Sing pious Tigernach, For Christ’s sake he
vanquished every lust, Out of whom burst a
stream of knowledge Of beautiful Clúain Euis
(Clones) Notes 4. Sing Tigernach i.e. Tigernach son of Cairbre, son of Catháir,
of Leinster, or of Leix was
Tigernach's father, or of Húi Bairche. Darfraich daughter of Eochaid son of Crimthann, king of Airgéill, from
Rigraith over Clochar was his
mother. Now Cairbre brought him under
cover to Kildare. He goes into the
guest-house. Brigit sees a watch of
angels above the house. She asked who was there. "One young warrior is there," says the attendant.
"Look thou still," quoth Brigit. He looks. "There
is," he says, "a little infant in the young warrior's bosom." "Good is the infant," says Brigit. Brigit goes into the guest-house, and the child
is baptized, and Brigit holds him at
the baptism, etc. Tigernach, i.e. of Offaly or Ui Barrchi, and, quod uerius est, he is in Cluain Euis. Of Hui Barrchi out of the west of Leinster is he. Cluain Eois i.e. the name of Concobar's swineherd who used to be there. Tigernach sang A bittock of a cake of
bright barley, this is my portion on the board, a sprig of watercress and warm water, this is my share every night. What has brought thee, O
Cuachán, over Muadán's hair (i.e. from below)? i.e. the angel said Thy piety and thy
devotion and Guaire's generosity. Darfraich mother of Tigernach, is to her that Cechtamair of Druim Dubain said, after being unable to split the tree while building her oratory: O Darfrtich! O mother
of holy Tigernach! let come thy help which was not slow, split the
tree anigh the wright. Tigernach son of
Cairbrei son of Fergus son of Énda son of Laban son of Briun son of Eochaid
son of Daire Barrach son of Catháir Mór. [Martyrology
of Tallaght – Book of Leinster] Marginal notes from The Martyrology of Tallaght: Tigernach of Cluain Eois, or Oois, i.e. from Oois, the name of the king of Oriel's swineherd, who was in that place before Tigernach. What he asked of the cleric alongside Fochart was that his name should be given to the place. Or, it was a great tree that was there formerly, i.e. eo aisse, i.e. a yew, as is said Eo Rosa. Or eo aisse, i.e. tree of acorns, i.e. oak, as it is calledthus, aiss mast on which swine are fed. [A swineherd was the name for a Celtic pagan sorcerer - often advisor to a king, similar to "shepherd" and "pastor" which mean Bishop in Christian nomenclature. To name a place after him might mean that this person had left his former ways and even encouraged the king to embrace Christianity. Or see the note about about Concobar's swineherd from a much earlier time.] |
