" " What (really) delayed you to-day ? " — said Patrick. " Rain delayed us, " said the King. " Your tribal gatherings shall be showery, " said Patrick. 'Patrick's Well is in that place, and there is the church of Mac Clarid, one of Patrick's household. More- over, the Deisi held their gatherings at night, for Patrick left that word upon them, since it was at night they came to him. ' In this way, doubtless, they hoped to escape the penalties threatened by Patrick.^ There is a Patrick's Well in ...the parish of Inislounaght, near Clonmel, which is, probably, the place here referred to. If so, it is likely that Patrick crossed the river Tar at Clogheen, and the Suir at Ardfinnan, and so came to Patrick's Well. This view is confirmed by the narrative: ' Patrick cursed the streams of that place because his books had been drowned in them — thrown, perhaps, into the river at the ford — -and the fishermen had refused to give him fish. ' And, although they were fruitful hitherto, he said that there would be no mills on these streams, but ' the mills of the foreigners would be nigh to them ' — perhaps at Clonmel or Waterford.
