"In the Southern Part of the County of Donegaul, near the Borders of Tyrone and Fermanagh, in the Latitude 54. 10. there is a Lake, now called by the Native Loghderg, about three Miles long, and two broad. It is surrounded with wild and barren Mountains, some of which have their Names from those Saints, who are supposed to have continued there in prayer for the Pilgrims; and that so long, that the Print of one of their Knees is still to be seen in a big Stone, and is adored by the Votaries as a precious Relick."

"It has been an endless Work to give an Account of all the Superstitious Places and Things in this Kingdom, of all the Lakes, Ponds, Wells, Trees, Stones, Crosses, Images, and Relicks, in which the Natives place a great deal of Vertue and Holiness, and to which they often go in Pilgrimage, with a firm belief that they shall procure great Blessings by Bathing in the Waters, or by Bowing down to, Kissing, Touching, nay, the very coming near of those Trumperies..."

"Mingled with these devotees, is another body of the faithful, no less necessary to the due 'getting up' of the drama. These are composed of men, women, and children, afflicted with every species of disease, whose friends have brough them thither, or who have spontaneously come, in the hopes of cure, natural or supernatural. As the masses proceed, one or other of these imposters feels or feigns recovers. First, a shrill voice, pipingly announces the fact; organs more powerful next proclaim it; then shout the press within, A miracle! - A miracle! the outer crowd repeat, in a grander key; which, borne on the glassy surface of the lake, to the expectant multitude who line its shores, is again and again echoed, till the distant mountains receive it into their lonely caves, and give it back again in dying tones, to the ears of those who first published the monstrous fallacy. 'A miracle the woods, a miracle the floods, a miracle the vaulted roofs resound'."

“We pray to ourself. The metal moon, unspent
Virgin eternity sleeping in the mind,
Excites the form of prayer without content;
Whitehorn lightens, delicate and blind,
The negro mountain, and so, knelt on her sod,
This woman beside me murmuring My God! My God!”

"An old legend in a life of St. Brendan the Navigator relates how three clerical students went off to a desert island, determined to win Heaven for themselves. They devoted all their days to praying in just such a fashion as one prays during the night vigil on [Station Island]. They recited the ancient prayers in enormous blocks and in every posture: standing upright, sitting, kneeling, with outstretched arms, with hands joined. They prayed like athletes drilling, repeating the words almost like physical exercises are repeated, shaking the very stars with their fusillades of Paters. The legend recalls the methods of spiritual training devised by the early Irish Christians and gives a clue to the present-day island practice."

Between Pettigo and Lough Derg on the old road lies the ruined graveyard of Templecarne, which Archbishop Healy thinks was the place of St Patrick's passage. Knox describes an interesting custom in connection with it: 'In the Sessiagh stands the Parish Church which is ruinous and there is the burial place for all, most commonly, but of old tis said some of the greatest note were buried in the Church Island in Logh Derg, I mean of those who were the inhabitants of Termond. Near this Church of Carne is an old ruinous building which of old was used as a place so sacred that when the inhabitants used to go from their winter dwellings to the utmost mountains for grass to their cattle which they did most commonly in Summer, they left such good as they could not leave safely at home in this place until they returned again or had occasion to use them and it was accounted a kind of sacrilige to meddle with anything that was left there to be kept, so much veneration had those barbarous people for whatever their Clergy gave them to believe was holy, which is indeed commendable in my opinion and much to be admired in those whose natural inclinations ever did and does to this day incline them to rapine and spoil.' It is only fair to add that however barbarous, the inhabitants aforesaid were not guilty of the spoil of Lough Derg and the rapine of the Holy Island which must be placed to the credit of so-called civilised folk!"
