He then gives extracts from the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle of the events connected with Cuichelm from AD 611 to 626, when he died. He confesses he can make nothing of Corroi, but he immediately identifies Cocholyn with...
Side 200 - ... indeed, that it would be impossible for a man to live there, even half an hour. Vipers and serpents innumerable, with all other kinds of wild beasts, infest that place ; and, what is most strange, the natives affirm, that if any one, passing the Wall, should proceed to the other side, he would die immediately, unable to endure the unwholesomeness of the atmosphere.

But this necessity does not really exist ; and the result I come to is, that it is not Welsh, neither is it Gaelic ; but it...
