Notes

  • Dedication: For Rodney Hall and Goran Tunstrom
  • Epigraph:' "A question to you", said Columcille, to his strange visitor from another realm. "What used this loch we are looking at to be in the old time?" "I know that," said the young man. "It was yellow. It was blossoming, it was green. It was hilly. It was a place of drinking. It had silver in it and chariots. I went through it when I was a deer. When I was a salmon. When I was a wild dog. When I was a man I bathed in it. I carried a yellow sail and a green sail.,..I know not father nor mother. I speak with the living and the dead.' John Sharkey, Celtic Mysteries
