=C.= The third phase may be called the Wanderings of Ciaran. From
Clonard he made his way to the monastery of Ninnedh on the island in
Loch Erne now called Inismacsaint (it is to be noted that VG knows
nothing of this visit). From Loch Erne he went to Aran, thence (after
a visit to Saint Senan on Scattery Island) to his brother's monastery
at Isel, a place not certainly identified. After this he removes
to Inis Aingin, now Hare Island in Loch Ree, which is his last
halting-place before reaching his goal at Clonmacnois. There are
twelve incidents. The first forms incident 13 of LC, which then breaks
off; this text therefore no longer requires a special column. The
wander-years end with 548, the year of the saint's arrival at
Clonmacnois.
