Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Jesus; giolla-muire, the servant of Mary. These names were latinized by some writers in modern times, Marianus, Christianus, Patricianus, Bri gidianus, &c. &c. But when an adjective, sigui fying a colour, or quality of the mind or body, is postfixed to Giolla, then it has its ancient sigui fication, namely, a youth, a boy, or a man in his bloom, as Giolla-dubh, i. E. The black, or black haired youth; Giolla - ruadh, i. E. The red-haired youth Giolla-riabhach, the swarthy youth Giolla - buidhe, the yellow youth; Ciolle-odhar, Giolla - Maol, &c. &c.
