Edition Notes

"This book is the first that has issued from Iona for some hundreds of years. The prayer is in very old Gaelic and is taken from the liturgy composed by John Kersewell, bp. of Argyll in 1566. It is also recorded in Martin's 'Hebrides'. 1703. An English translation accompanies the prayer. The plates are painted in water-colour by the island girls. "[-Preface.]
