It is one of the few existing Gaelic songs that we can definitely date within our period, being composed in 1574. To Eogan: I would consider it a great kindness if you could supply me with either the piece, itself or a source where I might find it. It's a little later than my persona but I'll manage something -- To the list: Here's a source you might find helpful for Gaelic poetry and song: Gair nan Clarsach -- The Harp's Cry, An Anthology of 17th Century Gaelic Poetry (Birlinn Ltd - 1994) available from James Thin. The pieces run ?1600 - to ?c1698 and are in both Gaelic and English. --ihon John F.
