Early Bardic Literature, Ireland., Firbolgs and Third Cycle of the Fomoroh., sentence 177

The same sentiment which caused the mediaeval Christians to disinter and enshrine the bones of their saints, and subsequently to re-enshrine them with greater art and more precious materials, caused the ethnic worshippers of heroes to erect nobler tombs over the inurned relics of those whom they revered, as the meanness of the tomb was seen to misrepresent and humiliate the sublimity of the conception.

Who acts: same sentiment, Christians, ethnic worshippers, heroes, meanness · What happens: cause, disinter, enshrine, re-enshrine, erect, inurn · To what, where: Christians, bones, ethnic worshippers, nobler tombs, inurned relics, meanness
