"[Lough Derg] is almost inaccessible by Horsemen, even in Summer, because of great Bogs, Rocks, and Precipices with which it is environed on all Sides. Such dismal and loansom Places are very apt to make frightful and melancholy Impessions upon the Minds for Weak and Ignorant; and, therefore, it is very probably, that it was pitched upon, as a convenient Place for passing so grand an Imposture upon them."

"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."

"Lough Derg has certainly been well chosen as a spot of religious penitence and seclusion, for the character of its scenery harmonises well with such a feeling; it is that of wild and gloomy loneliness. There are no trees to be seen, and very little cultivation of any kind. It is surrounded by heavy, round-headed mountains, or rather gigantic hills, covered with heather, which, with its red stalks and purple blossoms, casts a dull, dusky, red reflexion on the water, and gives to the lake its name. There are a few islands besides the Purgatory, and these are not without their beauty ; but they are still of the same wild, savage character as the coasts, — rocky, heath-covered, and abounding in myrica and arbutus."

"Though my letters are wild as the mountains in which they were written, still do I feel myself very sober in thought, and exceedingly (excessive) in love with truth even to the prejudice of all national feelings. But when you consider the subject, the difficulty of my task - that of seeking through the dim vista of tradition some faint glimmerings of truth - and the incoherency of the rude tales which I have attempted to digest, you will perhaps feel convinced that I could be not at all times serious or sober in expression."
