XXXVII. And Cambrensis, who undertook to supply authority for everything, it is likely in his case that it was a blind man or a dunce who gave a shower of fabulous knowledge to him, so that he left the invasion of the Tuatha-De- Danann without making mention (or narration) of it, and that they were three years short of two hundred in the headship of Ireland, and that there were nine kings of them in the sovereígnty of Ireland ; and he having under- taken to set down the first invasion of Irelan...d, even though it were the invasion of Kesar, and that the antiquaries do not regard [withj it for certain as an invasion, notwithstanding that it is mentioned in their books.
Truly I think that it was not any regard he had for investigating the ancient record of Ireland, but that the cause why he took in hand to write on it was in order to give false testimony concerning its inhabitants who lived during his own time, and on their ancestors before them : and, moreover, the opportunity he had was short for makíng search on the antiquity of Ireland, because that he spent but a year and a half at it, without goingto England : and his history not being (then) finished, he left a half-year's portion Digitized by VjOOQIC 89 of it (which was) wanting to the care of a com- pahion of his, named Bertram Verdon.
