(Probably) the poet's Wikipedia page.


From The Poem-Book of the Gael on Project Gutenberg. Selected and edited by Eleanor Hull. The preface say poems are translated by Hull if not otherwise credited, but it's not clear if all poems were translated (I'm treating them as having been, but... I might be wrong). I'm separating out the poems that list clear authors (as opposed to attributions), and those will be indexed as normal.
