I need say nothing about the translation and arrangement of this book except that it is worthy to be put beside Cuchulain of Muirthemne. Such books should not be commended by written words but by spoken words, were that possible, for the written words commending a book, wherein something is done supremely well, remain, to sound in the ears of a later generation, like the foolish sound of church bells from the tower of a church when every pew is full.
