XXXVI. THE REMOVAL OF THE LAKE

29. Moreover there was a lake near Isel, and country-folk and

despicable people used to occupy the island that was upon it. The

noise and uproar of those worthless people used to cause disturbance

for the clerics. Ciaran prayed to the Lord that the island should be

removed from its place, and that was done. The place where it was in

the lake is still to be seen as a memorial of that miracle.
