Excerpt from Celtic Wonder-Tales Retold In Tir-na-Moe, the Land of the Living Heart, Brigit was singing. Angus the Ever-Young, and Midyir the Red-Maned, and Ogma that is called Splendour of the Sun, and the Dagda and other lords of the people of Dana drew near to listen. Brigit sang: Now comes the hour foretold, a god-gift bringing A wonder-sight. Is it a star new-born and splendid up springing Out of the night? Is it a wave from the Fountain of Beauty upflinging Foam of delight? Is it a glorious immortal bird that is winging Hither its flight? It is a wave, high-crested, melodious, triumphant, Breaking in light. It is a star, rose-hearted and joyous, a splendour Risen from night. It is flame from the world of the gods, and love runs before it, A quenchless delight. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
