ST. PATRICK
Visions
I saw a man coming, as it were from Ireland. His
name was Victoricus, and he carried many letters,
and he gave me one of them. I read the heading:
"The Voice of the Irish". As I began the letter, I
imagined in that moment that I heard the voice of
those very people who were near the wood of
Foclut, which is beside the western sea—and they
cried out, as with one voice: “We appeal to you, holy
servant boy, to come and walk among us.”
