921 _Maonach Cele De do thiachtain don fhairrge aniar dodhenamh reachta h-Erenn_.—_Chron. Scot._; _An. F. M._, p. 605. This passage has been misunderstood. Mr. O’Donovan translated it ‘Maonach, a Cele De, came across the sea westwards to establish laws in Ireland;’ but Mr. Hennessy correctly points out that _aniar_ is ‘from the west,’ not ‘to the west.’ In fact _aniar_ is generally used for ‘from Ireland to Scotland,’ and _anair_ ‘from Scotland to Ireland;’ but _reachta h-Erenn_ means the laws _of_ Ireland, Erenn being the genitive form. What he brought over may have been the rule of St. Maelruain. Footnote 615: See _Vit. S. Cadroë_, _Chron. Picts and Scots_, p. 113.
