To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
CHAPTER V.
LATER CELTIC STORIES OF THE JOURNEY TO THE OTHER WORLD.
In the great collection of tales called The Colloquy with the Men of Old (Acallamh na Setibrach), preserved in manuscripts of the fifteenth century/ there is a story of the Journey to the Other World which illustrates very well the partial rationalization which the older themes generally undergo when they pass through the hands of later redactors. In this tale the Other-World heroine is repre- sented as the daughter of the arch-...ollave of Manannan mac Lir, and the hero is said to have eloped with her. These rather stupid attempts at rationalization^ do not, however, prevent the original fairy character of the lady from coming out distinctly. Though the story in the Acallamh is only an episode, it will be convenient to give it a title from the name of the hero : ^ The fragments occurring in the Book of Lismore (including this tale) are printed by O'Grady, Silva Gadelica, I, 94-234 (translation, II, 101-265). The whole Acallamh has since been edited, from four MSS., by Stokes, Irische Texte, IV, i, 1-438, with a translation of such passages as are not found in the Book of Lismore.
