Early Bardic Literature, Ireland., Early Bardic Literature, Ireland., part 4, sentence 65

On page 33, Vol. I., will be seen a poem [Note: Publications of Ossianic Society, page 303, Vol. IV.] by Fionn upon the spring-time, made, as the old unknown historian says, to prove his poetic powers--a poem whose antique language relegates it to a period long prior to the tales of the Leabhar na Huidhre, one which, if we were to meet side by side with the "Ode to Night," by Alcman, in the Greek anthology, we would not be surprised; or those lines on page 203, Vol. I., the song of Cuculain, forsaken by his people, watching the frontier of his country--

Who acts: Fionn, old unknown historian, antique language, we, Leabhar na Huidhre, Cuculain · What happens: see, make, say, prove, relegate, meet · To what, where: poem, page, poetic powers, side, song, frontier · Speech: someone speaks here
