Cyngar, son of Arthog, son of Ceredig, kinsman of Cuby,
was with him, an old man, failing in health. S. Cuby bought
a cow with its calf for him, " because, on account of his old
age, he could not take any other food besides milk." And
Cuby and his disciples cultivated the barren soil.
" It happened that on a certain day, one of the disciples
of S. Cuby, named Maelog, went to the door of Crubthir
Fintan1 to dig the ground. And Crubthir Fintan being
angry, came to forbid him, and said,' Do not dig the ground
at the door of my residence.' Then S. Cuby and Fintan went
out together to the abbot of the isle of Aran, who was called
Enna (Enda), and he made peace between them. Now it
happened on a certain day, that the calf of Cyngar's cow
came to the cornfield of Crubthir Fintan, and the disciples
of Crubthir Fintan came and took the calf, and tied it to a
great tree. And S. Cuby sent one of his disciples to Crubthir
Fintan, requesting that he might loosen the calf, and he would
not loose it, for as yet Crubthin Fintan persevered in his
anger. And S. Cuby prayed to the Lord that the calf might
come to its mother, for the old man Cyngar was almost dead
for want of milk, for without the calf the cow would not give
any milk. And the Lord heard the prayer of S. Cuby, and
sent the calf to its mother in a wonderful manner, with the
tree to which it had been tied and its roots. Then Crubthir
Fintan prayed to the Lord that he might drive away or destroy
S. Cuby from the isle of Aran, but the Lord loved him, and
an angel of the Lord came to S. Cuby in his sleep, and said
to him, ' Go from this island to the eastern side.' To which
S. Cuby answered, saying,' May God destroy Crubthir Fintan
from this island.' And the angel said, ' So shall it be.'
1 Fintan, son of Crimthan. Nothing is known of him. Crimthan was the father
of S. Columba of Tirdaglas. Archdall makes Fintan son of Crimthan, bishop of
Clonfert; but Lanigan points out that this is a mistake. Eccl. Hist, of Ireland, ii. 231.
Crimthan was King of Hy-kinsellagh; he favoured S. Patrick, but opposed Fiech.
Columba of Tirdaglas died about 552.
