574 Bass Conaill mac Comgaill Ri Dalriada xiii. anno regni sui qui oferavit insulam Ia Coluimcille. Cath Delgon a Cindtire in quo Duncadh mac Conaill mic Comgaill et alii multi de sociis filiorum Gabrain ceciderunt.—_Ib._ p. 67. Delgon seems to be afterwards called Cindelgen. It is probably the place from which the Lord of the Isles dates a charter in 1471, apud Ceandaghallagan in Knapdal. Footnote 143: _Chron. Picts and Scots_, p. 83. Footnote 144: Reeves’s _Adamnan_, ed. 1874, p. 81. Footnote 145: _Chron. Picts and Scots_, p. 60. Footnote 146: Reeves’s _Adamnan_, ed. 1874, p. 264. Footnote 147: This is evidently alluded to in the passage in the tripartite life of St. Patrick, when he blesses Fergus, son of Ere, in Irish Dalriada, and says, ‘Though not great is thy land at this day among thy brothers, it is thou shalt be king. From thee the kings of this territory shall for ever descend, and in Fortrenn (Pictland), and this was fulfilled in Aidan, son of Gabran, who took Alban by force.’—_Chron. Picts and Scots_, p. 17. Footnote 148: Aetio ter consuli gemitus Britannorum. Repellunt nos Barbari ad mare, repellit nos mare ad Barbaros; inter hæc oriuntur duo genera funerum, aut jugulamur, aut mergimur.—Gildas, 17. Footnote 149: The name Gurthrigern, usually inserted in the text, is not to be found in the best MSS., and is an interpolation. The ‘concilium’ or council was evidently the Roman provincial council, and the leader is here called Dux Britannorum, also a Roman military title. Footnote 150: ‘Usque ad annum obsessionis Badonici montis.’ The words which follow, ‘qui prope Sabrinum ostium habetur,’ are not in the best MSS., and are an interpolation. Footnote 151: ‘Transactoque Romanorum imperio in Brittannia per quadraginta annos fuerunt sub metu. Guerthigirnus regnavit in Brittania et dum ipse regnabat in Brittannia urgebatur a metu Pictorum Scottorumque et a Romanico impetu necnon et a timore Ambrosii. Interea venerunt tres cyulæ a Germania expulsæ in exilio in quibus erant Hors et Hengist.... Guorthigernus suscepit eos benigne et tradidit eis insulam quæ in lingua eorum vocatur Tanet Britannico sermone Rusihen. Regnante Gratiano secundo Equantio Romæ Saxones a Guorthigirno suscepti sunt anno trecentesimo quadragesimo septimo post passionem Christi.’ This account appears to belong to the work as originally compiled in the seventh century.
