Padraig

From Rhegeds lofty peaks spied sailing over Erins sea pirates raiding from Innesfail white sails catching the prevailing wind as if flying them over the watery way. Mannanans mares could not catch nor hinder them from their wicked and dastardly intent. Taken as a servant lad to serve at a chieftains table questions he dare not ask complaints he would not utter. Growing tall into manly ways with resentment and a nurtured hate unable to comprehend his destiny. As a man his life was touched by divine and mysterious ways forgiveness for his captors grew A servant for his Masters will to teach Gods will on Erin land clearing out the serpants hand. All was done and accomplished amid astonished looks and wonderment to Gods glory he gave praise strengthend by the three in one Padraig a servant of Gods own son.
