XXI. CIARAN AND THE STAG

16. Further, into that school there used to come a stag to Ciaran, and

he would place his book on the horns of the stag. One day there Ciaran

heard the bell. He arose suddenly at the sound of the bell, but still

swifter was the arising of the stag, and it went off, with his book

on its horns. Though that day and the following night were wet, and

though the book was open, not a letter in it was moistened. The cleric

arose on the morrow, and the stag came to him with his book uninjured.
