LIV. THE PANEGYRICS (LA, VG)

There is little that need be said about these paragraphs, which are of

conventional type. There are two references in VG which may, however,

be noted. The first is to the relics left in the hollow elm, of which

we have already heard at the beginning of these annotations: here

said to have been deposited by Benen (the pupil of Patrick, and his

successor in Armagh) and by Cumlach (the leper of Saint Patrick). The

second is an allusion, on which I am unable to throw any light, to

some evidently well-known story of a certain Peca and his blind pupil.
