Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from St. Fursey's Life and Visions: And Other Essays
Moreover, this prose poem of the seventh century is doubly interesting, as bearing the mark of its high antiquity in the lyric simplicity and artless form of the narrative. And as St. Fursey's name and story are not so well known in his native land as assuredly they ought to be, I will give, at the same time, a rapid sketch of his career, - first in Erin, then in East Anglia, and lastly in that glorious France where his memory is still held in grateful veneration.
