Excerpt from The Book of Tephi In 1886 I published a fragment of this tale which some of my reviewers then invited me to complete. I have been unable to accept this invitation earlier owing to my own ignorance of the story as told by the Irish bards; and these, so far, give me little help between the departure of the "sea-king's daughter from over the sea" from Taphanes and her arrival in Ireland; though I fancy that eventually something might be gleaned upon this head from other Celtic sources, particularly those in which the name Inogen or its congeners appears. My own rough and erroneous reproduction of the main features of a story which has deeply influenced the national, clerical and literary history not merely of Celtdom, but of all non-Sclavonic Europe, is chiefly based upon the excellent modem translations of Messrs Standish O'Grady, Whitby Stokes, and others; whilst I must recognise the claim made by Gillariach, the crouchbacked, O'Clery, to kindly remembrance for preserving certain important details which would otherwise probably have been lost.
