A fool is each man on earth

Who ceases from praising Him,

And ceases not the bird

And it without soul. . . .

Another quatrain from Meyer, “Bruchstücke der älteren Lyrik Irlands,” Abhandlungen d. preuss. Akad. d. Wissen. (phil.-hist.

^{Note 73 in page 102} Exigencies of the complex Irish meter influenced somewhat the order of details; but the effect is rarely bad. Cf. the similar difficulties which Dafydd ab Gwilym, the Welsh poet of the fourteenth century, confronted successfully.

Rawlinson B 502 fo 59. b, together with the reply on summer, Heinrich Zimmer, Göttingische Gelehrte Anzeigen (1887, Nr. 5), pp. 184 ff.; without reply it is also in the Book of Leinster, 208a. The song of winter is sung by Mac Lesc (Lazy Boy) as an excuse against going out to get water; Finn replies and punishes him. A second version of “The Hiding” Meyer found in MS. Betham 145, p. 13, and therefore corrected for F. S. S. W.; the first version is from MS. Harleian 5280. Parts of poems shifted settings or were “plagiarized.”—Cf. Hull, p. 82.

^{Note 111 in page 121} One may go further and extend the view to the early Celts, for a survey of the poetry of Dafydd ab Gwilym would find no dominant melancholy, though it would prove him quite the Welshman and the Celt. The theory of an early and persistent melancholy of the Celtic peoples, though it was developed by Renan and Matthew Arnold and still lingers in handbooks and popular criticism, has been exploded and is accepted by no Celticist.
