III. HOW CIARAN RAISED THE STEED OF OENGUS FROM DEATH

3. A certain day the horse of Oengus son of Cremthann died, and he

had great sadness because of the death of his horse. Now when Oengus

slumbered, an angel of God appeared to him in a dream, and thus he

spake with him: "Ciaran son of the wright shall come, and shall raise

thy horse for thee." And this was fulfilled, for Ciaran came at the

word of the angel, and blessed water, and it was put over the horse,

and the horse arose from death forthwith. Then Oengus gifted a great

land to God and to Ciaran in return for the raising of the horse;

Tir-na Gabrai is the name of the land.
