To  the  Most  Hokourable, 

WILLIAM 

Marquis  of  LOTH/^A^, 

PRESIDENT^ 

AND  ^  /> 

Remanent,  Mod  Noble,  Right  Ho- 
nourable, Reverend  and  Charitable 
Members  of  the  SOCIETY  in  Scot- 
landj  for  propagating  Chriflian 
Knowledge. 

AMONGS'T  the  matfji  wife  Pufpofes,  for  which 
^jf^  particular  Societies  have  been  injlitute,  none  can 
be  of  a  higher  Value ,  than  the  great  and  the  good 
"End  propofed  by  the  Royal  Letters  patent,  conjlituting  you 
into  a  Body  Politick,  for  propagating  Chrijlian  Knowledge ; 
and  it  deferves Encouragement,  you  not  only  contributing  of 
your  own  Subjiance,  but  alfo  giving  fo  much  of  your 
Time,  in  attending  the  Service  of  the  Society  gratis,  is 
highly  Praife-worthy,and you  will  not  want  your  Reward, 

IT  feems  to  have  been  referved  for  you,  to  be  the 
happy  Injlruments  of  bringing  about  the  Reformation  of 
the  Highlands  and  IJlands  of  Scotland,  diverfe  Places 
of  which  were  remote  from  the  Means  of  obtaining  In- 
JlruMion  \  and  indeed,  when  we  conftder  the  Situation  of 
the  Inhabitants,  their  Ignorance,  their  Inclinations  to 
follow  the  Cujloms,  Fajhions  and  Superjlition  of  their 
Forefathers,  the  Number  of  Popifh  Emiffaries  in  many 
Places  of  thefe  Countries  \  and  add  to  thefe^  their  Way

of  Life^  the  unfrequented  Pajfesy  and  the  Dijlance  of 
their' Houfes  from  one  another,  together  with  innume- 
rable other  Difficulties,  one  could  not  think,  hut,  that  an 
Attempt  to  reform  them,  would  he  a  very  arduous  Task^ 
to  he  brought  about,  even  by  the  mojl probable  Means. 

BUT  great  and  generous  Spirits ^  Lovers  of  Religion 
mid  their  Country,  have  nobler  Aims  than  to  be  difcon- 
raged  from  attempting  their  Duty.  Noble  publick  fpiri- 
ted  Virtue  is  their  peculiar  Care,  and  the  more  free, 
great,  and  difinterefted  it  appears,  the  liker  it  is  to  its 
Author,  and  confequently  may  expe5t  the  greater  Share  of 
Divine  Affifiance. 

FROM  a  Perfwafion  of  the  Truth  of  thef  excellent 
Principles,  did  you,  of  this  illujlrious  Society,  proceed  to 
form  your  Plan  :  Tou,  no  Doubt,  forefaw  the  Difficulties 
and  Difcouragements  which  your  pious  Defign  would  he 
attended  with,  and  did  meet  with  at  your  Beginning  ;  yet 
fiillyou  hop* d  they  might  he  furmounted:  And  tho*  all  the 
good  Effects  of  your  Endeavours  could  not  fully  appear  at 
firjl,  yet  you  might  expert  that  they  would,  by  GOD'S 
Bleffing,  afterwards  appear  ;  and  how  far  your  Hopes 
were  right  founded,  the  prefent  Situation  of  your  Schools, 
theiy  blejjed  Siiccefs,  will  jujiify  to  thetVorld;  and,  for 
the  Satisf anion  of  all  who  are  ignorant  thereof,  I  refer 
to  the  printed  State  of  the  Society,  and  Rules  of 
Management. 

I  could  with  Pleafure  enlarge  on  the  flouri/hing  Con- 
dition your  Schools  are  now  in  in  many  Places,  I  could 
the)  tell  the  almojl  miraculous  Change  made  upon  the  Tem- 
pers and  Lives  of  many  of  the  Inhabitants^  and  could  te- 
Jlify  how  much  they  are  civilized,  and  happier  than  for- 
merly ;  but  this  is  ?wt  proper  for  me  to  expatiate  on  in 
this  Effay,  my  chief  Bufinefs  here  is,  to  Jhew  how 
much  this  Galic  and  Englifli  Vocables  may  have  a 
Tendency  to  further  the  ISocietfs  Defign. 

THE 


DEDICATION.  v 

7H£  Mru^ion  of  the  Youth  in  the  Englifh  Lan- 
gfuige^  is  thought  necejjary  to  promote  the  charitable  Pur- 
pofe  of  this  Society,  and  to  make  thefc,  who  can  [peak 
onlyGd.\^Cy  more  ufe fid  Members  in  the  Commonwealth  ; 
and  it  is  certain,  that  if  this  were  to  be  carried  on-,  by  teach- 
ing froin  Books  intirely  Englifh,  without  any  Mixture  of 
the  Mother-'Tongue,  it  would  not  be  fo  fpeedily  got  done. 
I  know,  that  by  your  Orders,  we  your  Schoolmajlers 
are  not  to  carry  our  Scholars  forward  in  Reading,  but  as 
they  underfi and  what  they  read  in  Englifli,  and  mojlrea- 
fonable  it  is  -,  but  then,  ^tis  a  great  Task  both  to  Mader 
and  Scholars,  and  takes  long  ^ime  -,  whereas,  we  can 
oblige  our  Scholars  to  get  thefe  Vocables  by  Heart,  as  is 
done  in  Latin  Schools,  which  will  very  much  further 
them  in  their  Progrefs,  and  alfo  fpread  the  Englifh 
Language  thro*  the  Country,  and  make  thefe  young  Ones 
more  ufeful  the  fooner,  as  Servants  at  Home,  and  alfo 
when  they  come  Abroad  to  the  Lowlands,  andbe  imployed 
in  the  Navy,  or  Army,  or  in  any  other  Service  in  the 
Commonwealth. 

IT  is  well  known,  that  the  Method  of  teaching  any 
Language  by  Books,  not  written  in  Peop'les  own  Lan- 
guage, has  been  very  uneafy  to  Youth,  and  difcouraging 
to  their  Endeavours,  in  the  Profecution  of  their  Studies  ; 
whereas  a  regular  Vocables  in  both  Languages,  put  in 
their  Hand,  is  a  great  Help,  not  only  to  the  Mafters 
and  the  Scholars  themfehes,  but  alfo  to  thefe  with  whom 
th^  converfe,  and  it  makes  the  Englifh  Language  to 
fpread  the  more  quickly. 

I  therefore  frefume  fo  far,  as  to  offer  the  following 
Galic  Englifh  Vocabulary  to  your  Ircte^ion,  and  the 
rather,  that  fuch  an  Undertaking  being  frji  fuggefted  in 
your  Honourable  Society  itfelf,  and  by  you  recommended 
to  the  then  Presbytery  of  Lorn,  noiv  that  o/Mull,  %uho 
,  laid  it  on  tne  to  prepare  fuch  a  Vocables /6»r  the  Ufe  of 
your  Schools,  which  is  certainly  one  good  Mean  to  carry 


vi  DEDICATION. 

en  the  glorious  End  of  your  EreSlion,  as  I  know  by  Ex- 
periotce  in  the  Pcji  I  ferve  you  in,  I  did  cordially  un- 
dertake to  give  my  Jjjijiance  therein,  in  order  to  intro^ 
duce  the  Englilh  Language  over  the  whole  Highlands 
and  Iflands  of  Scotland,  and  have  executed  this  Work 
with  all  the  Care  I  could :  I  have  followed  the  Method 
of  the  moji  approvedVoc^buhrks,  and  ranged  the  Words 
in  a  natural  Order,  have  added  many  Words,  particU" 
larly  fuch  as  relate  to  "Divinity,  that  the  Youth,  and  o- 
thers  in  the  Highlands  and  Iflands,  may  the  more  rea- 
dily learn  the  firjl  Principles  of  Chrifiian  Knowledge,  in 
an  eafy  and  familiar  Way.  And  thd*  I  was  brought  up 
with  the  Galic  Language,  as  my  Mother-Tongue,  yet  1 
thought  fit,  to  lay  this  my  Performance  lefore  Reverend 
Mimfiers  of  the  Presbyteries  of  Mull  and  Lorn,  who 
may  be  prefumed  to  underftand  the  Galic  Language,  as 
well  as  many  others,  and  they  having  revifed  the  fame, 
have  approven  thereof  And  if  any  who  are  known  in 
the  Galic  Language,  Jhall  difcover  any  Errors,  wrong 
Syllabications,  Defers  or  Omiffions,  which  may  happen 
in  tranfcribing,  thro'^  my  Ahfence%  and  not  overfeeing  the 
Prefs,  they  may  take  Notice  thereof,  and  the  fame  may 
be  amended  in  another  Impreffton  ;  this  being  the  firfl  of 
this  Kind,  that  I  know  of,  I  commit  to  your  Patronage 
avd  Ufe. 

IF  this  Attempt  of  mine  (hall  contribute  to  advance 
your  good  and  pious  Vefign,  and  if  it  (hall  be  efleemed 
ufeful  by  your  Honourable  Body  ^  and  if  my  honejl  En- 
deavours are  favourably  interpreted,  it  will  be  a  great 
Pleajure  to  me,  and  flxdl  always  be  my  Care  and  Study, 
how  befi  1  can  to  defe-rje  the  Continuance  of  your  Fa-. 
vour,  which  I  efleem  very  much  ;  and  to  bear,  in  my 
Station,  the  Name  and  Character  of  being 
Your  moft  devoted, 
moft  humble, 

and  obedient  Servant.

NATIONS  by  nature  fituatcd  in  the  mkift  of  the 
world,  whatever  tl.cir  origin  be,  if  they  nrd\.s 
any  figure,  and  become  confiderable  in  peace  or  war, 
have  their  hiftory,  either  by  their  own  writers  or 
thofe  of  other  countries,  tranfmitted  to  pofterity  ; 
whilft  the  anions  of  people  more  remote,  though 
perhaps  not  inferior  in  power,  nor  lefs  confiderablc: 
in  peace,  are  loft  in  the  oblivion  cf  time,  and  their 
name  and  language  almoft  annihilated  or  eririn'fl. 
Of  the  latter  fort  is  the  Celtic  nation.  Situate  1 
early  weft  of  Greece  and  Rom;»,  their  learning  and 
hiftory,  fuch  powerful  rivals  having  fpi  ung  up  to 
the  eaft  of  them,  either  remained  with  themfelves, 
or  emigrated  from  the  continent  to  Britain  and  the 
adjacent  iflands. 

Greece,  at  one  time,  fabjefling  the  EaiT",  and 
Rome  afrerwards  becoming  miftrcfs  both  of  the  Eaft 
and  Weft,  the  Galic  power  either  decreafed  or  re- 
treated, and,  in  room  of  Galic,  Roman  learni'.ig  fac- 
ceeded.  Rome,  like  every  other  great  and  wealthy 
ftate,  by  its  own  weight  and  unv/eildinefs,  dropt  in- 
to non-cxiftsnce  ;  and  now  its  language  lives   only

in  books.  An  inundation  of  Barbarians  from  th«i? 
northern  parts  overwhelmed  the  European  continent. 
Letters,  as  affrighted,  fled  to  the  Hebrides  and  Ire- 
land for  an  afylum,  where  they  flourifhed  for  fome 
centuries. 

Saxon  innovation,  however,  both  in  the  northern 
and  fouthern  parts  of  Britain,  proved  fatal  to  the 
Galic  power  and  language.  The  Cambrian  and  the 
Galic,  formerly  the  fame,  but  now  different  dialeds 
of  the  Celtic,  retreated,  the  one  into  Wales,  and  the 
other  into  the  Highlands  and  weftern  parts  of  Scot- 
land. At  the  revival  of  letters,  and  afterwards  at 
the  Reformation  in  religion,  the  Galic,  being  unfor- 
tunately the  provincial  language  of  but  a  part  of 
Scotland,  and  having  ceafed  to  be  falhionable  at 
court,  did  not  partake  of  the  advantages  that  other 
languages  derive  from  the  invention  of  printing. 
Under  thefe  difadvantages,  however,  it  ftill  is  fpo- 
ken  with  much  purity,  on  a  great  part  of  the  conti- 
nent  and  iflands  of  Scotland,  and  exifls,  at  this  day^ 
one  of  the  greatefl:  livmg  monuments  of  antiquity. 

The  human  mind,  vi^ith  great  longing,  looks  back 
into  the  paft,  lefs  mterefted  in  many  particulars  of 
the  prefent,  which  it  overlooks,  and  of  the  future, 
which  it  enquires  not  after.  The  aftions  and  con- 
nexions, the  fortune  and  habitations  of  our  ancef- 
tors,  the  fields  they  walked  on,  their  prudent  con- 
dud,  and  even  foibles,  we  delight  to  hear  recited, 
with  an  interefted  attention.  The  fields  on  which 
Caefar,  Alexander,  and  Fingal  fought  their  battles  ; 

the 


INTRODUCTION  vii 

the  ruins  of  antient  Rome,  Carthage,  Athens,  or 
Palmyra  ;  the  contents  of  Herculaneum,  a  Grecian 
temple,  an  Egyptian  pyramid,  or  Druidical  circle  ; 
infpire  tlie  mind  of  every  vifitant  with  the  ardent 
enthuiialm  of  inquiry,  and  a  multitude  of  forrowful 
thoughts  on  the  inftability  of  the  highefl:  temporal 
grandeur,  which,  attended  by  a  pleating  melancholy, 
leaves  the  mind  calmly  penfive,  and  gently  perplex- 
ed. But  when  I  look  back  into  the  former  times  of 
the  Gael,  whofe  hiftory  a  native  might  be  fuppofed 
more  immediately  fond  of,  finding  it  fo  much  in- 
volved in  obfcurity,  or  fupprelTed  and  obliterated  by 
the  policy  of  a  neighbouring  monarch,  I  could  lit 
down  and  weep  over  its  fall,  execrating  the  pohcy 
of  ufurping  invaders,  ever  deftruclive  to  letters,  hu- 
manity, and  its  rights. 

There  are  not,  however,  wanting,  at  this  day, 
proofs  fufficient  to  fliew  the  Gael  were  once  a  very 
confiderable  people.  As  late  as  the  Roman  invafi- 
on,  all  tliat  part  of  Britain  north  of  the  Tweed  and 
Solway  Frith,  with  feveral  counties  of  South  Bri- 
tain, and  all  Ireland,  with  the  adjacent  iflands,  was 
inliabited  by  the  Gael.  When  the  Romans  retired, 
and  ceafed  to  be  a  people,  other  invaders  infeiled  their 
coafts.  'The  Danes,  at  different  times,  either  in- 
vaded or  conquered  diiFerent  parts  of  Britain,  and  as 
often  were  repulfed.  The  Saxons,  however,  hav. 
ing  gained  a  fettlement  on  the  eaftern  coafts  of  South 
and  North  Britain,  the  Gael  by  degrees  recreated  to 
the  north  and  weflern  parts  of  Albin,  as  their  inva- 
ders, theScoti  of  the  Low  Countries,  gained  ground. 

The 


x'm  INTRODUCTION. 

Tlie  diiTercnt  kingdums  cf  England,  after  Ibine  time, 
uniting  and  forming  one  great  monarchy,  became 
too  powerful  for  the  inhabitants  of  the  Low  Coun- 
tries of  ScDilaiid,  and  obliged  the  Gael  and  the  Gaill, 
or  the  ftrangers  of  the  Low  Countries,  for  the  ge- 
neral fecurity,  likewife  to  become  one,  in  oppofition 
to  the  Englifli.  The  feat  of  government,  which 
fled  before  the  Romans  to  the  weft  and  the  iflands, 
where  the  Palladium  had  hitherto  remained  fecure, 
at  tliis  period  having  no  enemy  north  of  the  Tweed, 
\/as  removed  to  Scoone,  afterwards  to  Dunfermling, 
thence  to  Edinburgii,  and  at  laft  is  arrived  at  Weft- 
minder.  The  Kings  of  Scotland,  with  the  court, 
now  reiiding  in  thoff  parts  where  a  dialect  of  the 
Saxon  was  fpoken,  and  having  in  times  of  peace 
greater  intercourfe  with  the  Englifli,  the  Scots  at 
length  became  the  court  language.  From  this  pe- 
riod SVC  may  date  the  decline  of  the  Galic. 

All  ciiarters,  deeds,  records,  and  laws  were  nov/ 
written  in  Latin  or  Scots.  And  the  monafteries  be- 
in-T  pillaged  by  Edv/ai'd,  whatever  was  valuable  in 
literature  was  ent^irely  loft.  Ireland,  which  hither- 
to was  fubjectcd  by  no  foreign  lord,  nor  diftrefled 
bv  the  encroachments  of  a  neighbouring  ftate,  ex- 
cept Tome  temporary  iavafions  by  the  Danes,  quiet- 
ly  enjoyed  the  ufe  cf  its  laws,  language,  and  liber- 
licj.  It  was  at  this  junclure  that  the  Irifli  ^eana- 
chies  and  annalifts  (when  the  Scots  having  thrown 
off  their  extorted  allegiance  to  England,  their  annals 
and  records  being  irrecoverably  deQroyed  by  Ed- 
warc^  wilhed  to  have  fome  account  of  their  own  oil- 


INTRODUCTION.  ix 

gin)  invented  their  hyperbolic  and  incredible  Mile- 
fian  expedition  from  Egypt  and  Spain  to  Ireland, 
and  thence  to  Scotland  by  the  promontories  of  Gal- 
losvay  and  Ceantire.  Fordun,  having  no  other  ma- 
terials,  at  once  adopted  this  fyftem,  which  gaiued 
unlverfally  in  Scotland,  until  the  ingenif)us  i\jr  Mac- 
pherfon  publiflied  his  introduction  to  the  Hiltory  of 
Great  Britain  and  Ireland.  Wbilft  Roman  learn- 
ing, by  the  medium  of  a  dialect  of  the  Saxon,  nov/ 
flouriflied  in  Scotland,  the  Galic  and  Roman  m  fomc 
degree  grew  together  in  Ireland,  which,  for  fome 
centuries,  was  deemed  the  greateil;  fchool  for  learn- 
ing in  Europe.  There  letters  and  learned  men, 
from  all  countries,  found  a  fccure  retreat  and  afy- 
lum.  Its  happy  iituation,  however,  did  not  perpe- 
tuate  thefe  bleilings.  Ireland  was  invaded  by  the 
Danes,  and,  in  a  fubfequent  age,  made  fubjed  to  the 
Kings  of  England.  1  hough  there  were  Englilh  co- 
lonies in  Ireland,  the  Gael  of  that  country  enjoyed 
their  own  laws  and  cufloms  till  the  reigns  of  Eliza- 
beth and  James  I.  when  the  Englifli  laws  were  uni- 
verfally  ellabliHied.  Then,  for  the  firft  time,  the 
Grdic  ceaied  to  be  fpoken  by  the  chiefs  of  families, 
and  at  court ;  and  Engliih  fchools  were  erected,  with 
llrid  injunctions,  that  the  vernacular  language  fliould 
no  longer  be  fpoken  in  thefe  feminaries.  This  is 
the  reafon  why  the  Iberno-Galic  has  more  MSS. 
and  books  than  the  Caledonian.  In  Scotland  there 
has  been  a  general  dcftruflion  of  antient  records  and 
hooks,  which  Ireland  eftaped.  It  enjoyed  its  owa 
laws  and  language  till  a  later  date,  wluKl  the  Scots- 
fa  Eimiilh 


X  INTRODUCTION. 

Englilli  very  early  became   the  eftabliihed  language 
in  North  Eritam. 


In  this  fituation  I  found  ,the  Galic,  with  few- 
books,  and  fewer  iWSS.  in  the  living  voice  of  many 
thoufands  who  entirely  neglected  it.  The  firft  Ga- 
lic printed  book  ever  known  in  Scotland,  is  the  Irilh 
tranriation  of  the  Bible  and  New  Teftament.  It 
underwent  two  inipreflions,  one  in  the  Iridi,  and 
the  other  in  the  Roman  letter,  but  is  now  to  be  met 
with  only  in  the  libraries  of  the  curious.  Though 
the  Bible  be  the  common  book  of  Chriftians,  and  to  be 
met  with  in  the  language  of  every  Proteft ant  country, 
yet  ip  Ireland  and  the  Highlands  of  Scotland,  it  is  at 
this  day  a  curiofity.  ]>Jotwithftanding  that  one- 
third  of  the  minifters  of  the  Church  of  Scotland, 
fmce  the  Reformation,  daily  preached  in  Gelic,  fo 
little  zeal  for  their  own  language  prevailed,  that  the 
Bible  is  not  yet  tranfiated  ;  and  it  is  within  thefe 
ten  years  the  New  Teftament  has  been  attempted 
by  one  of  their  minifters.  The  Confeflion  of  Faith, 
and  the  Pfalms  in  metre,  both  imitations  of  the 
Irilh  dialeft,  have  been  tranflated  by  the  Synod  of 
Argyle  ;  and  fince,  there  have  appeared  three  col- 
letTions  of  fongs  and  poems,  all  of  which,  though 
there  be  merit  in  the  eompofuion,  are,  however, 
wretchedly  orthographied.  By  Mr  JVIacdonald 
there  has  been  a  Vocabulary  publiflied  at  the  ex- 
pence  of  the  Society  fur  propogating  Chriftlan  Know- 
ledge in  the  Highlands,  in  which  moft  things  arc  ex- 
prelTed  by  circumlocution.

Mr  Macfarlane,  late  niinifter  at  Killinvir,  Arg^-le- 
fliire,t]-an(laTedBa:cter'sCalito  the  Unconverted  He 
underftood  the  Galic  well,  and  was  a  Grammarian  ; 
but  his  poetry  is  more  forced  than  natural.  Had 
ethers,  however,  been  equally  zealous,  the  language 
would  have  had  many  books,  and  been  better  un- 
derftood  by  thofc  who  every  day  fpeak  it.  But  at 
prefent  I  much  doubt  whether  tKere  be  four  men 
in  Scotland  that  would  fpell  one  page  t'^c  fame  way  ; 
for  it  has  liitherto  been  left  to  the  caprice  and 
judgment  of  every  fpeakcr,  without  tlie  fleauinel's 
of  analorry  or  direction  of  rules.  The  tafte,  at  this 
day,  of  tlie  clergy,  a  lettered  and  refpectable  order, 
is  to  underfland  the  Englifij,  content  with  what  G?- 
-lic  enables  them  to  tranflate  a  fermon  they  original- 
ly wrote  in  Englifh.  And  although  they  are  oblig- 
ed to  fpeak  in  public  once  in  feven  days,  there  are 
not  five  minifters  in  Scotland  who  write  their  dif- 
courfes  in  their  own  tongue  ;  yet  there  are  feveral 
ambitious  to  be  reputed  tlie  tranflators  of  a  few  lines 
of  Galic  poetry. 

The  improvement  of  the  country,  as  well  as  the 
minds  of  the  inhabitants,  has  been  flrangely  neglect- 
ed, in  an  age  when  every  other  country  emerges 
from  obfcuriiy  and  ignorance,  till  fome  changes  were 
forced  upon  them  by  a  late  law,  I  fliall  not  fay  how 
politic.  To  fee  a  people,  naturally  capable  of  every 
improvement,  though  once  mided  by  ignorance, 
ftripped  of  their  ancient  habits  and  cuftoms,  and  de- 
prived of  the  Scriptures  in  their  own.  tongue,  the 
right  of  Chriltians,  never  denied  to  the  moft  favage

Indians,  is  at  once  a  complication  of  inhumanity  and 
imprudence.    Better  flay  their  bodies  to  fecure  their 
aft'edions,  as  Rome  was  wont  to  do  with  heretics  to 
bring  their  fouls  to  heaven,  than  keep  them  in  igno- 
rance, with  the  expeftation  that,  after  fome  genera- 
tions, the  Engli'h  manners,  language,  and   improve- 
ments,  may  begin  to  dawn.    At  this  day,  there  is  no 
equal  number  of  people  in  Britain   fo   ufeful   to   the 
ftate.     Upon  every  emergency  they  fupply  our  na- 
vy with  good  feamen,  and  our  armies  with   valiant 
foldiers.     But  Ihip  them   of  their  drefs,   language, 
the  name  and  honour  of  Gael,  and  they  foon   dcge-r 
nerate.       Their   habit,   language,   life,   and  honour, 
they  alwa^rs  kept  or  parted  with  at  once.     The  ho- 
nour of  the  narr»e,  their  habit,   and   a  Galia  fpeech, 
have  always  infpired  them  more  than   the   confecra- 
tion   of  the   colours.       Government,  by   preferving 
thefe  privileges,  to  them  I'acred  as  their  arte  <b  foci, 
might  ha^e  at  leaft  one  p^rt  of  the   community   of 
whom  they,  on  any  emergency,  might  fay  with  the 
Roman  general,  "  I  know  the  tenth  legion  will  not 
''  defert  me."     From  this  I  would    infer,    that   the 
Gael    Ih.oukl   be    taught   to   read    the    Scriptures   in 
their  own  language,    by   which   Popery,    tliat   ever 
grows  in  the  foil  of  ignorance,  might  be  for  ever  ex- 
terminated.    Is  there  no  Bifiiop  Bedel,   no  Robert

calion  to  fpeak  it,  an  undertaking  which,  without 
any  precedent,  1  thought  at  firft  impraAicable.- — 
Upon  a  more  clofe  attention,  however  to  its  pecnli- 
av  genius,  and  the  general  philofophy  of  language, 
1  found  that 

NH  tarn  d'^cile  quod  non  folertia  vlncat  ; 

and  afterwards  confidering  a  Galic  Grammar  as  an  ad- 
dition to  the  ftores  of  literature,  much  wiilied  for  by 
many  both  in  Scotland  and  England,  I  was  encoura- 
ged to  perfevere  in  attempting  to  do  what  was  ne- 
vsr  done  before. 

On  the  Iberno-Galic  there  have  been  v/rltten  gram- 
mars by  different  hands.  The  Scots  and  Irifh  Galic, 
though  not  radically  different,  are  two  fcparate  dia- 
lects of  the  fame  language.  The  words  are  almoft 
always  the  fame,  but  differently  orthographied , 
The  Irifli,  in  their  grammars,  have  a  more  uncertain 
and  various  infledion  in  the  termiriation,  which  the 
Scots  Galic  has  not  ;  and  this  inclines  me  to  think  the 
Scots  is  the  original,  and  that  this  inflection  of  termi- 
nation in  Irifl)  grammars  is  the  mark  of  an  attempt 
by  the  monks  to  poli/li  it,  after  tlic  manner  of  the 
Creek  and  Latin.  '

na-Hilernica  in  i2mo  at  Piome,  1677  ;  and  Macurtin,

of  which  nierit  only  to  be  mentioned.     There  are

by  the  indefatigable   Major  \"allenciH,   in  1773,  ^^ 
Dublin,  is  the  moll  latisfaiftory  that  has  appeared. 

In  tnis  treatife  I  have  entirely  confined  myfelf  to 
the  Scots  Galic,  and  think  I  have  accounted  fui-  eve- 
ry  phenomenon  in  its  ftruclure.  To  reduce  to  rule 
a  language  without  books,  and  having  no  ttandard 
but  the  judgment  of  every  fpeaker,  is  an  undertak- 
ing  perhaps  adventuix)us  ;  but  finding  the  alphabet 
confilting  of  eighteen  letters,  in  which  it  has  hither- 
to been  written,  fo  well  adapted,  that,  with  a  very  few 
combinations,  every  found  in  the  language  ni-\y  be 
eafily  accommodated,  it  remained  for  me,  after  con- 
fiderirg  its  genius,  to  raife  this  fyfterri  on  that  foun- 
dation. Jf,  neverthelefs,  it  be  found  defeclive,  it  is 
altogetlier  my  own.  I  cannct,  like  other  Gramma- 
{■ians,  be  called  a  compiler  or  tranfcriber  ;  what  I 
have  delivered  is  the  refuk  of  attentive  obfervati- 
on.  The  books  I  found  of  moll  ufe  are,  Harris'^ 
Henr.es,  Sciopius's  Gran:mat.  Philojlph.  and  particu- 
larly Mr  Elphinfton'o  ingenious  Analylis  of  the 
English . 

Being  the  firft  that  has  offered  the  public  a  gram, 
matical  account  of  the  Gahc,  it  was  recommended  by 
feveral  pcifons  to  frame  a  new  alphabet,  confining 
of  letters  or  combinations,  to  exprefs  all  the  founds 
in  the  language,  without  any  mute  letter.  This  is 
impradicable  ;  but  though  it  could  be  effecled,  it 
would  only  render  the  etymology  more  perplexing. 
It  was  recommended  to   wrhe  v  inltead   of  bh  and

mh,  aiuljv  initead  oi dh  and  gh  ;  which  if  i  had  done, 
the  inflections  of  words  beginning  with  b  and  m,  &c. 
would  be  indifiingr.ifiiable.  Thus,  it  could  not  be 
known  whetlier  voladh  was  praife,  from  moladh, 
praifing;  ov  bholadh,  the  dsiiiyc  of  hladh,  fmell.  Pie- 
jeding,  for  thefe  and  other  reafons,  all  remarkable 
changes,  I  have  only  thrown  away  fome  ufelefs 
confonants,  retaining  what  are  neceffary  to  preferve 
the  etymology  and  exprefs  the  founds.  Excepting 
words  that  begin  with  certain  confcnants,  the  initial 
confonant  before  the  afpirate  't,  there  are  no  filent 
letters  in  the  language.  Unlike  the  Irifii,  the  Scots 
Galic  delights  to  pronounce  every  letter,  and  is  not 
briftled  over  with  fo  many  ufelefs  and  quiefcent  con- 
fonants.  The  EngUfli  and  French  are  infinitely 
more  difficult  to  read  and  pronounce,  and  have  ma- 
ny more  filent  and  mute  letters.  In  the  Galic  there 
are  no  fnch  ugly  locking  words  as  thought,  through ^ 
Jlrengthy  &c.  nor  found  fo  different  from  what  the 
letters  at  other  times  exprefs.  Kow  far  I  may  have 
reduced  it  to  a  fixed  fyftem,  founded  on  the  general 
philofophy  of  language,  and  its  ova  particular  geni- 
us, others  muft  determine  ;  I  only  claim  the  indul- 
gence always  (liewn  to  a  juvenile  attempt,  efpecial- 
ly  of  a  paiTagc  through  mountains  never  trod  before. 
It  was  not  the  mercenary  conllderation  of  intercll-, 
nor  perhaps  the  expeftatlon  of  fanje  among  my 
countrymen,  in  whofe  efleem  its  beauties  are  too 
much  faded,  but  a  tafte  for  the  beauties  of  the  ori-

have  been  more  profitably  employed  in  tafting  the 
various  produdlions  of  men,  ornaments  of  numaii 
nature,  afforded  in  a  language  now  teeming  with 
books.  I  beheld  with  aftonilhrnent  the  learned  ia 
Scotland,  fince  the  revival  of  letters,  negled  the  Ga- 
lic  ;  .as  if  it  was  not  worthy  of  any  pen  to  give  a  latio-

aiTembled  his  chiefs,  rendered  the  Grampian  liUh 
impaffable  to  legions  that  had  conquered  the  world  ; 
and  by  which  Fingal  infpired  his  warriors  with  the  de- 
ftre  of  immortal  fame.  I  wiflied  an  account  given  . 
to  the  world  of  a  language,  through  which,  for  fo 
long  a  period,  the  benefits  of  knowledge,  and  the 
bleOings  of  rehgion  were  communicated  to  favage 
clans  and  roving  barbarians,  who,  in  paft  ages  be- 
coming civilized,  fung  the  praifes  of  Him  who  taught 
both  the  tongue  to  found,  and  the  thoughts  to  foar 
within  the  walls  of  the  illuftrlous  lona. 

Originally  moved  by  thefe  confiJerations,  and  at  the

ongiiial  to  his  Lordlhip,  without  any  expcdlation  of 
its  ever  being  pubhflied.  Mr  Bofwell,  whofe  man- 
ners as  a  gentleman,  and  tafte  for  polite  learning; 
have  gained  him  theefteem  and  friendfhip,  as  well  of 
one  of  the  mofl:  renowned  Heroes  of  the  age,  as  of 
the  learned  at  home,  hearing  from  his  Lordlhip  of 
the  exiftence  of  thefe  iheets,  obtained  a  perufal  of 
them,  which  he  afterwards  left  with  Dr  Samuel 
Johnfon,  To  the  advice  and  encouragement  of  Dr 
Johnfon,  the  friend  of  letters  and  humanity,  the 
Public  is  indebted  for  thefe  flieets. 

An  acquaintance  with  the  Galic,  being  the  mother- 
tongue  of  all  the  languages  in  the  weft,  feems  ne- 
cefTary  to  every  Antiquary  who  would  ftudy  the  af? 
finity  of  languages,  or  trace  the  migrations  of  the 
ancient  races  of  mankind .  Of  late  it  has  attrafted 
the  attention  of  the  learned  in  different  parts  of  Eu- 
rope ;  and  fh^il  its  beauties  be  neglected  by  thofe 
who  have  opportunities,  from  their  infancy,  of  under- 
ftanding  it  ?  Antiquity  being  the  tafte  of  the  age, 
fome  acquaintance  with  the  Galic  begins  juftly  to  be 
deemed  2  ^an  of  the  Belles  Lettres.  The  language 
that  boafts  of  the  finifiied  character  of  Fingal,  mult 
richly  reward  the  curiofity  of  whoever  ftudies  it.  Of 
this  Sir  James  Foulis  is  a  rare  inftance,  who,  in  ad- 
vanced years,  has  learned  to  read  and  write  it;  and 
now  drinks  of  the  Pierian  fpring  untainted,  by  reading

0  is  read  as  in  the  EngHlh  lord,  oppofite ;  thus,

generally  followed  by  a,  u,  or  /,  and  fo  forms  a

H  E  parts  of  fpecch  are  eight — Noun,  Preo" 
noun,  Verb,  Participle,  Adverb,  Prepofi-

The  Genders  are  two,  Mafculine  and  Feminine  j 
that  is,  e  cr  z,  he  ov  Jhe. 

Since  the  Gahc  language  perfonifics  every  objefl-, 
Lnaniinate  as  vv-ell  as  animate,  the  diftinftion  of  gen- 
der is  the  principal  ditPcuhy  ;  and  this  is  what  ren-

pouns  in  og  and  sg  are  feminine),  nor  any  other  cir- 
cumftance  but  inuneciiate  diftindjon  of  fex,  and  cuf- 
tom,  can  determine  the  gender.  They  talk  of  ay?owe, 
^fpoony  aiuindow,  a  fiddle.,  3i/hoe,  z  hat,  a  chat r^ 
and  a  kmfe,  as  a^je;  but  a /locking,  a  coat,  ajtool, 
a  fork,  as  heov  it.  Nouns,  however,  having  a  alone 
in  the  lad  fyllable,  befol-e  one  or  more  final  confo- 
tiants,  are  generally  mafcithne  ;  as^,  aodan,  a  face  ; 
(xhhar,  a  caufe  ;  cogadh,  war,  &c. 

Nouns  having  o  in  the  laft  fyllable  are  gtiterall/ 
niafculine ;  as,  corp,  a  body  j  ceri,  mift ;  bord,  a 
board ;  bonn,  th?  fole,  or  bafe  of  any  thing. 

Nouns  which  have  a  diphthong  in  termination,  the 
laft  vowel  of  which  is  broad,  are  generally  mafcu- 
line  ;  as,  beul,  a  mouth  j  meall,  an  heap  ;  gaoth,  the 
wind,  &c. 

Nouns  which  have  a  diphthong  in  termination, 
the  laft  vowel  of  which  is  {lender,  are  feminine  ;  as, 
7une,  time ;  uair,  an  hour  ;  cuis,  an  affair ;  compailt, 
a  Company,  &c. 

Arrents  in  air  and  oir  are  mafculine  :  all  nouns  ii\

The  DcclenfiOns  are  two. 

1.  Nouns  of  the  firft  declenfion  have  the  nomi-

nunatWe  plural  in  a  or  an;  as,  creioir,  an  animal; 
plural,  cretoira,  or  cretoiran,  animals.  At  the  fame

32  AN     ANALYSIS     OF 

The  article  an  mafculine  of  the  nominative  and 
accufative  fnigular,  is  changed  to  am  before  nouns 
beginning  with/,  b^  and  p^  if  the  noun  be  mafculine. 
If  the  noun  begins  with  a  yowel,  the  letter  t  is  pre- 
fixed in  the  nominative  and  accufative ;  as,  an  t  ord, 
the  hammer  ;  if  with  an  s,  a^^fiat,  a  rod  or  wand,  afz 
t  flat,  the  J-  being  filent.  Nan  of  the  genitive  plural 
before  /,  b,  p,  is  changed  to  72a?n  ;  before  a  noun  be- 
ginning with  a  c  or  g,  is  founded  as  if  the  laft  n  were; 
joined  to  the  g  /  as  nan  ceum,  of  the  fteps,  na  iiceums 
nan  cof,  as  if  na  ncos.  When  the  noun  is  mafcu- 
line, and  begins  v.'ith  an  f,  the  euphonic  t  is  retained 
in  the  genitive,  dative,  and  ablative  fingular ;  as,  faol^ 
the  world,  genitive,  an  t  faoil ;  dative,  d'on  t  faol  j 
ablative.  Ids  an  t  faol :  but  if  feminine,  it  is  retained 
throughout  the  whole  fingular,  except  the  genitive 
caf«  ;  as,  nominative,  an  tjlaf,  the  wand  ;  dative, 
do'n  t  pat ;  accufative,  an  t  Jlat ;  vocative,  o'  an  t 
fuit  ;  ablative,  his  an  t  flat.  Bat  this  is  only  when 
it  is  definitely  declined. 


General  Rules. 

The  Nominative  and  Accufative  are  always  alike 
in  both  numbers. 

Do  is  tiie  figu  of  the  dative  ;  le  or  his  of  the  abla- 
tive.

The  fleftion  of  a  Celtic  noun  does  not,  like  a  Greek 
noun,  confifl:  in  an  inflefted  article  and  termination 
only ;  nor  a  Roman  noun^  with  its  termination  in-

of  the  vowel  or  diphthong  of  its  termination,  and  by-

If  the  Noun  be  of  the  feminine  gender,  the  geni- 
tive  definite  is  formed  from  the  indefinite,  by  prefix- 
ing the  article  na  ;  as,  cois^  of  a  foot  ;  genitive  defi- 
nite, na  cots,  of  the  foot.  And  if  the  noun  feminine 
begins  with  a  vowel,  the  letter  h  is  prefixed,  to  fliun 
the  hiatus ;  thus,  ailne,  beauty ;  genitive  definite,  rta 
h  ailne,  of  the  beauty  :  eagnai,  wifdom  ;  genitive  de- 
finite, na  h  eag7iaJ,  of  the  wifdom. 

Nouns  beginning  with  the  immutable  confonants 
/,  n,  r,  do  not  admit  of  the  fleftion  /;  ;  fo  rinnag,  a

Of  Compartfon. 

'  I  ^HERE  are   three  degrees  of  Comparifdn ;  the 
;        Pofitive,  Comparative,  and  Superlative. 

The  Comparative  is  formed  from  the  genitive  fin- 
giilar  indefiinte  of  the  pcfitive  ;  /.  e.  by  making  tlie 
laft  vowel  an  /,  and  adding  e  to  the  pofitive  j  thus, 
laidir,  flrong  ;  genitive  indefinite,  laidir  ;  compara- 
tive, laidire,  flronger  ;  hiac/nnhor,  precious  ;  geni- 
tive indefinite,  luachmhoir ;  comparative,  luach- 
m/wire,  more  precious  :  dubh,  black  ;  didbhe,  black- 
er  :  geal,  white;  comparative,  gUe,  vhiter.  It  is 
refolved  by  «o,  than,  the  conjunftion. 

The  Superlative  is  like  the  Comparative,  and  is 
diftinguillied  only  by  the  words  that  follow,  and  are 
governed  by  it ;  as,  laidire  agibh,  the  ftrongefr  of 
you  ;  luach-mhoire  dhin,  the  molt  precious  of  us ; 
dtdbbe  accOy  blackeft  of  them  ;  gile  aginnCy  tbe 
whiteft  of  us  ;  maifiche  am  meafg  an  t  Jlua'tghy  hand- 
fomeft  among  the  people.  The  particle  ;o  put  be- 
fore any  adjeftivejs  eqqal  to  the  Engliih  very  or  rnofly 
the  French  tres,  and  the  Latin  per;  thus,  ro  bheartach, 
very  or  moft  rich  ;  tres  or  fort  riche ;  perdives  .•  ro 
bhochd,  very  or  molt  poor  ;  tie;:,  ires,  or  fort  pau- 
vre  ;  perpauper.  Note,  that  neither  the  comparative 
nor  the  fuperlative  undergo  any  change  by  fledion.

In  a  Galic  verb,  what  the  Latins  call  the  Gerund 
or  Subftantive  derived  from  the  verb,  is  the  principal 
part  from  which  the  other  tenfes  are  formed  and 
modiHed.  ^ 

In  the  ftedlion  or  conjugation  of  a  verb,  particles, 
the  auxiliary  verb  to  he,  the  afpirate  after  the  initial 
confonant,  and  now  and  then  a  change  of  terminati- 
on, form  differently  the  different  tenfes.  In  order 
to  decline  a  verb,  after  having  the  gerund  or  fub- 
flantive,  or  the  name  cf  the  adion  before  it  relates 
to  per  Ton,  time,  or  modification,  the  prefent  parti- 
ciple is  formed  by  putting  ag  before  the  radix,  which 
always  governs  the  genitive  in  difcourfe,  and  has  no 
change  in  gender  :  fo  fiom  criiinuchadh,  a  collefting 
or  gathering  together,  is  formed  (ag)  crjiinuchadh, 
the  prefent  participle.  Jg  is  more  elegantly  written 
before  participles  beginning  with  a  vowel ;  as,  ag 
iarridh,  feeking. 

To  form  the  Infinitive,  decline  the  radix  as  a  fnb- 
flantive,  as  far  as  the  dative  cafe,  which  is  the  infini- 
tive prefent ;  there  is  no  other  tenfe  of  this  mood  ;

thus,  cruimichadh,  the  radix  or  gerund,  (ignifies  u  g.i- 
thering  together,  or  aflembly.  The  dative  of  which 
is  do  chruhiiichadh,  to  gather  or  afll^mble.  Bat  when 
the  vcrh  begins  with  a  vowel,  the  ir.finitive  is  formed 
thus;  as,  crdiichadh,  commanding,  ordering;  dative, 
///;'  ordiichadh,  the  infinitive,  to  command. 

There  are  two  participles  pcrfetl  :  the  fird  is  of 
fome  ufe  in  the  aftivc,  but  more  in  the  palTive.  The 
one  is  formed  by  putting  the  prcpofuion  air  inftead 
of  agt  as  (ag)  crtdnuchadh,  aflembling  ;  air  cru'tnu- 
chadhy  aflembled.  It  receives  genders  thus :  For 
the  mafculine  it  aflumes  the  afpirate  /;  and  puts  a,  the 
genitive  of  the  perfon,  between  it  and  the  prepofiti- 
on  air ;  as,  air  a  chruimichadh,  he  affembled  ;  Lat'n, 
covgregatiis  ;  for  the  feminine  it  afrnmes  only  the 
pofleirive  pronoun  a,  which  is  the  genitive  feminine 
oie,  i ;  as,  air  a  cruinnchadb,  ftie  affembled ,  congregata. 
The  a,  however,  is  often  lofl  when  the  verb  begins 
with  a  vowel ;  as,  air  orduchadh,  he  affembled,  for 
air  a  orduchadh.  In  the  feminine  the  euphonic  /;  is 
prefixed  ;  as,  rt/r  a  h  ordnchadh. 

In  difcourfe,  tins  participle  governs  the  genitive  of 
any  of  the  pofieflive  pronouns  put  between  the  air 
and  the  verb,  and  the  genitive  of  a  noun  when  put 
after  it ;  as,  tha  mi  air  mo  threoruchadh,  I  am  di- 
reeled;  air  treoruchadh  an  duine,  directed  the  man. 
Vv'hen  the  dative  is  put  after  it,  it  tranflates  the  ab- 
lative abfolute  of  the  Latins;  as,   air  treoruchadh 

dhamhf 


6o  A  N  A  N  A  L  Y  S  I  S  O  F 

dhiimh,   I  having  directed  ;   air  eirachd,  or  cirlgh, 
do^ngbrian,  the  fun  having  rifcn. 

The  other  Participle  is  fonned  from  the  radix,  by 
changing  its  la!l  fyllable  into  tc  ;  thus,  treoriichadhy 
direfling;  ireondchte,  dire<^ed;  cridnuchadh,  afj. 
fembling  together ;  cruinlchte,  aflembled. 

The  prefent,  the  pafl,  and  the  future  tenfes  only- 
arc  formed  regtilarly  ;  but  the  auxiliary  iha,  I  am,  in 
conjunclion  with  the  participle,  gives  rife  to  the  im- 
perfedr,  perfecl  definite,  and  pluperfect. 

Though  feme  fay  a  language  has  only  as  many 
tenfes  as  are  regularly  formed  without  the  auxiliary, 
yet  I  am  of  opinion,  a  verb  cannot  be  better  conju- 
gated than  by  dating  it  m  all  its  different  times  of 
adion  whatfoever ;  on  this  account,  therefore,  in  or- 
der to  afcertain  the  different  ways  of  fpeaking  rela- 
tive to  action  in  thp  Galic,  and  at  once  to  fhew  a  verb

pofnble  difpolition  of  the  Galic  verbs,  fo  various  in 
their  moods  and  tenfes,  may  be  refulved  ;  I  am  of 
recelTity  obliged  to  introduce,  perhaps,  an  unufual 
number  of  moods. 

As  the  diffcrcxit:  particles  of  conjunction  and  adverb 
contribute  to  the  variety  (^f  moods  in  this  language,  I 
fliall  endeavo'jr  to  fnew  the  modes  of  them  in  fepa- 
rate  clafTes.  Thefe  I  will  dcnominatlvely  call,  Indi-

gative,  Subjundive,  Opcative,  Imperative,  and  Infi- 
nitive. 

A  language  modifies  a  verb  fo  many  difierent  ways, 
either  by  a  change  of  termination,  or  the  afliftance  o9 
auxiliaries,  and  the  influence  of  different  particles. 
The  Galic  moods  are,  however,  reducible  to  thefe  : 

The  Indicative,  which  at  the  fame  time  ferves  as 
Refponfive ;  and  as  Conditional,  by  putting  the  con- 
ditional particles  ma,  ifj  ttuair,  when;  antra, 
when,  kc.  before  it. 

The  Subjunctive,  which,  with  the  particle  an  be- 
fore it,  ferves  as  interrogative,  and  as  the  negative, 
which  takes  the  particle  of  negation  cho  an,  cho,  or 
that  of  the  Irifli  dialect,  ni  an,  no,  not,  before  it,  and 
cho  do  before  the  paft:  tenfe,  and  the  particles  chum 
ogus  go,  to  the  end  that,  &c. 

The  Optative  has  an  imperfect  and  fome  paft  tenfes 
peculiar  to  itfelf,  with  the  particle  jiach,  utinam,  I 
wifli  that,  O  that !  This  mood  and  its  moft  common 
tenfes  may  be  feen  in  that  moft  beautiful  text,  in  this 
language  peculiarly  pathetic:  0!  nach  ro  iad  glic, 
nach  tnigadh  iad  foy  nach  cinmhnadh  iad  an  crioch

Remarks  on  the  Verbs. 

The  adverbs  anira^  nua'ir,  when ;  mttf  if ;  are  join- 
ed with  the  pafl  tenfes  of  the  Indicative,  but  always 
■with  the  Sulijunilive;  thus,  nucnr  chnunich  iadclocha, 
when  they  gathered  ftones  together;  with  the  Sub- 
junftive,  nua'ir  ghabhas  iad  cornhnuidh,  when  they 
ihall  reft. 

The  adverbs  cho,  not  ;  cho  do,  not  ;  an,  tlie  in- 
terrogative particle  ;  the  conjunctions  chnm  agus  gu^ 
fo  that ;  ionas  gur,  infoniuch  that  ;  ch'ionn  nach,  be- 
caufe  not  ;  hhri  nach,  becaufe  not;  nach,  not;  are 
\xie6.  alfo  interrogatively ;  was  not?  would  that?  arid 
are  always  put  before  the  Subjunftive  mood ;  fo, 
cho  chrn'mich  iad  na  clocha,  they  will  not  gather  the 
itones.  Chum  agus  gu  ro  iad  air  an  cruinuchadh,  (or) 
crumichte,  fc  that  they  were  aflembled,  or  gathered 
together.  Chionn  nach  ro  iad  cruimchte,  becaufe 
they  Vv-ere  not  gathered  together.  Nach  is  an  opta- 
tive particle  ;  thus,  0  7hich  cruinuchadh  iad!  O  that 
they  would  aflemble  ! 

Jg,  th.e  fign  of  the  participle  prefcnt,  is  not  always 
written  before  the  verbs  beginning  with  confonants; 
as,  iba  ivi  fmuijituchadh,  I  am  confidering;  in  place 
cf  tha  mi  ag  fmitainttichadh.  In  poetry  it  is  ufed  cr 
r.eglcclcd  as  beft  fuits  the  poet ;  hm  before  participles

Of  the  Formation  of  the  Parts  of  Speech. 

AFTER  confidering  the  various  inflections  of 
the  parts  of  fpeech,  it  is  natural  to  enquire  into 
their  formation.  Ideas  vary  with  things,  and  the 
names  of  things  with  ideas.  The  formative  nouns 
are  Diminutives,  CoUedives,  Abftracls,  Agents,  and 
Actions. 


I .    Of  Diminutives. 

All  Diminutives  of  the  feminine  gender  in  this  lan- 
guage end  in  og  or  ag  ;  thofe  of  the  mafculine  in  an, 
by  fubjoining  thefe  fyllables;  as,  nian,  a  girl ;  manage 
a  little  girl ;  caillach,  an  old  woman ;  caillachag,  a 
little  dd  woman:  fguab,  a  fheaf;  fguahag^  a  little 
iheaf :  leanahh^  a  child ;  leanahan,  a  little  child  :  duine, 
a  man  ;  duinan^  a  httle  man,  a  mannikin,  homunculus. 
Few  or  none  of  the  chriftian  names  are  diminutive. 


2.     Of  CrAlecli'ves. 

Colledive  nouns  are  not  confined  to  any  termina- 
tion.    Among  many  the  following  may  be  reckcaied  : 

Au 


102  ANANALYSISOF 

Au  Fhe'mc,  the  Fingalians,  or  followers  and  army  of 
Fingal,  king  of  Morvcn,  and  hero  of  OUian's  Poems. 
Fine,  a  nation  or  tribe ;  clunn,  a  clan  or  family,  the 
followers  and  defcendants  of  a  Baron  or  Chieftain, 
literally  children ;  crodh,  cattle  ;  pobul,  people  ; 
huidhan,  a  band  ;  cnmpailt,  company ;  iiaijle^  gentry. 


3.     Of  Ahflraas. 
Mod  of  the  Galic  abftrafts  terminate  in  achd  ov 


as. 


Achd  is  generally  a  fenjinine  termination. 


Some  adjeftives  in  achd  add  as  for  their  abftraifl ; 
as,  gairdachy  joyful  ;  gairdachas,  pyinXne^s:  miob- 
huidhacb,  ungrateful ;  nuobhu'idhachasy  ungrateful- 
nefs:  duiihacb,[ad;  du5hacbas,{3.dne(s.  Some  change 
the  acb  into  as  ;  as,  beartach,  rich  ;  beartas,  riches  : 
fiiintach,  generous;  fimitas,  generofity:  alhreachy 
penitent;  athreachas^  penitence. 

Some  fubftantives  and  adjectives  which  have  /  in 
their  laft  fyllable,  have  as  rather  than  achd  fometimes 
added;  or  the  termination  changed  toas ;  fo,  cruaidb, 
hard  ;  criias,  hardnefs  :  carid,  a  friend ;  cairdas, 
friendlhip -.fuairc,  gentle;  funircas,  gentlenefs :  math, 
good ;  mathns,  goodnefs  :  diamhin,  a  kinfman ; 
clcamhnas,  affinity  :  udar,  an  author;  udaras,  autho- 
rity :  neo-ghlioc,  imprudent ;  neo-ghliocas,  impru- 
dence \foiia,  happy;  fonaSf  happinefs.

ous compoiition.  The  original  fimple  principles  of 
the  Galic  make  it  far  excel  any  of  the  modern,  and 
rival  the  moll:  ancient  languages.  The  little  varie- 
gated fleftion  of  its  nouns  and  verbs,  which  is  pecu- 
liar to  itfelf,  and  the  abundance  of  its  compohtions, 
render  it  capable  of  beautifully  defcrioing  and  exprei'- 
fing  the  emotions  of  the  mind,  without  the  aid  of  fo- 
reign words  ;  hence  it  is,  that  the  illiterate  peafant 
on  the  hills  of  Scotland,  having,  in  his  infancy,  had 
his  mind  iWed  with  a  certain  number  of  primitives 
and  their  different  modes  of  inflexion,  by  an  e:i\yy

Neither  is  this  language  deficient  in  the  terms  of 
art.  In  Ethics,  Jurifprudence,  Theoleg>',  and  Na-

Of  compounded  Verbs. 

All  aftive  compounded  nouns  may  be  refolved  into 
verbs,  and  may  be  conjugated  by  the  examples  given, 
like  regular  verbs ;  others  are  declined  by  means  of 
the  auxiliary  ;  and  many  verbs  which  in  other  lan- 
guages are  compounds,  in  the  Galic  have  the  compos 
fitive  prepofition  immediately  following  the  verb  ; 
thus,  athnuadhuchadh,  renewing,  is  the  aftive  fub- 
flantive  compounded  of  ath  again,  and  nuadhuchadh^. 
making  new,  is  refolved  into  a  verb  ;  thus,  athnu- 
adhicham,  I  renew,  &c.  dh^athnuadJnch  mi,  I  renew- 
ed ;  athnuadhuchidh  mi,  I  fliall  renew,  &c. 

In  thefe  verbs  which  admit  of  the  fledion  h  after 
their  initial  confonants,  the  fame  is  introduced  in  both 
parts  of  the  compounded  verb,  where  the  confonants 
are  not  immutable.  The  n  in  the  fecond  part  of  the 
pa(t  tenfe,  dh'ath-r.uadhich,  is  immutable,  and  there- 
foi'e  has  no  h  ;  but  in  this  verb,  athghinam^  I  rege- 
nerate ;  dh^ath-gfnti  mi,  I  regenerated,  it  is  percep- 
tible. 

Ceitr-Jeanbhin,  perfecution,  is  conjugated  by  the 
auxiliary ;  thus,  tha  mi  geur-leanbhin,  bha  mi  geur- 
l^ambhin,  8cc. 

Verbs  have  fame  component  particles  after  them,.

MacdonaWs  Odes, 

The  pofTeflive  pronouns  mo,  my  ;  do,  thy  ;  and  the 
mafculine  a,  his,  its;  have  the  h  afpirate  after  the 
initial  confonant. 

"  O  Dhia  is  tu  mo  Dhia,  go  moch 
'         *'  Do  iarrani  thu  gach  la 

**  Ro  thartor  ata  m'anam  bochd 

*'  Ann  geall  ort  fein  do  ghna."         Pfal,  Ixiii. 

When  the  noun  begins  with  a  vowel  the  afpirate 
is  loft;  as,  m^anam;  d  in  do,  thy,  is  changed  into  t 
before  a  vowel ;  as, 

O  pill  rium  us  dean  trocair  orm, 
Ti^oir  neart  do  /'  oglach  fein. 
Do  mhac  do  bhan-oglaicb  faraon 
Dean  fuafgladh  ann  a  f  heim. 

The  pofTeHive  a,  his,  its,  before  nouns  beginning 
with  vowels,  often  finks,  and  is  loft.     Thus, 

Dhoirt 


THE   GALIC    LANGUAGE.        iig 

Dhoirt  e  afiam  amach,  he  poured  out  his  foul;  in- 
ftead  of  dhoirt  e  a  anam,  &c.  to  Aiun  the  hiatus. 

In  this  cafe,  if  a  is  the  feminine  pofTelTive,  the  h 
euphonic  muft  be  introduced  ;  thus,  dhoirt  i  a  h  anam 
amach,  flie  poured  cut  her  fuul. 

The  Irifh,  and  even  the  Scots,  needlefsly  prefix  an 
n  to  the  pofTeffive  a  of  either  gender  ;  tlius,  le  na 
lamhy  with  his  hand  ;  whilft;^  a  lamh,  founds  agree- 
ably enough,  becaufe  the  vowels  are  broad  and  fmall. 

It  is  fomewhat  difficult  to  know,  whether  the  a  be 
mafculine  or  feminine  when  the  noun  begins  with  any 
of  the  immutable  confunants.  The  diftinclion  depends 
en  the  fenfe  of  the  fentence  ;  \\  hen  feminine,  the  /, 
«,  or  r  feems  in  reading  and  fpeaking  as  if  double  ; 
thus,  le  a  lamh,  with  his  l;and  ;  h  a  lamh,  with  her 
hand,  is  pronounced  as  if  le  a  llamh. 

As  the  letter  a  feems  to  have  fo  many  fignificati- 
ons,  and  to  ferve  io  many  ufes,  it  may  be  pj  oper  here 

to  fettle  its  extent. The  letter  a,  in  the  modern 

books  in  Gaiic,  I  believe,  has  as  many  different  mean- 
ings as  the  tod  has  araongft  the  Rabinical  Dodlors  of 
the  Jev/s  in  their  traditions  and  Cabalia.  Lven  Mr. 
Macfarlane,  and  Mr.  Stewart,  the  tranflator  of  the 
Scotch  veriion  of  the  New  TefLament,  have  written 
this  letter  of  many  meanings  without  any  fixed  rule. 
With  them  and  others,

moran  ionnats,  much  treafure  ;  began  fonais^  little

IV.  Partitives,  Superlatives,  and  Interrogatives

V.  The  meafure  of  any  thing  has  the  prepofitlon 
air  before  the  dimcnfion  ;  as,  da  fhichid  traigh  air 
doirnhnachdy  forty  feet  deep* 

VI.  Adjectives  of  plenty  and  want  govern  the 
genitive  or  dative  ;  thus,  Ian  fori,  full  of  wine  ; 
fallamh  do  thuigfe,  void  of  underftauding. 

All  thofe  Adjedives  which  fignify  any  afFecTtion  of 
tire  mind  have  the  prepofition  air  before  the  follow- 
ing nouns  ;  thus,  math  air  fuirge^  experienced  at

VII.  An  adllve  verb  governs  the  Accufative  ;  as, 
bhuail  e  me^  he  ftruck  me  :  fcriobh  e  Uttir^  he  wrote 
a  letter  : — Duifgidh  fuath  imreafon  :   ach  folachidh 

gradh  gach  cionta. Hatred  ftirreth  up  ftrife  ;  but 

love  covereth  all  fms.'        Prov. 

N.  B.  We  cannot  with  ftrift  propriety  fay  that 
the  Galic  has  an  accufative,  becaufe  the  nominative 
and  accufative  are  always  the  fame.  This  conftruc- 
tion  means,  that  the  noun  (next  to  its  immediate 
nominative)  following  the  verb  mud  be  of  the  no- 
minative  cafe.  To  prove  this,  duifgidh  imreafon  is 
the  verb  and  nominative,  as  well  as  duifgidh  juath^ 
only  fuath  ishcre  next  the  verb:  fo  both  are  of  the 
nominative  ;  the  lituation  only  determining  the  no- 
minative or  perfon,  and  the  governed  noun. 

Exception. 


124  ANANALYSISOF 

Exception.  If  the  v.erb  be  oi  the  infinitive,  or 
of  any  of  the  combined  tenfes,  where  the  participle 
occurs,  the  noun  following  is  of  the  genitive  cafe  ; 
as,  (W e'ifdachd fgeoH,  to  hear  news  ;  ag  rufgadh  nan 
craobh,  dripping  the  trees.  And  if  the  word  go- 
verned be  any  of  the  pronouns,  it  muft  go  before 
the  vf-rb ;  thus,  Bhraithre  imimhin  tha  an  fcrloptoir 

ag  ar  hrofnuchadh  ann  lomad  ait,  &c. Dearly  be- 

loved  brethren,  the  Scripture  moveth  us  in  fundry 
places,  &c. 

Here  I  think  it  proper  to  interdid  the  falfe  con- 
ftrudlions  common  in  converfation,  and  which  the 
Rev.  JVlr  iMacfarlane  of  Killinvir,  the  only  perfon 
who  feems  to  have  fludied  the  genius  of  the  lan- 
guage, frequently  falls  into.  Inftead  of  writing  ag 
ar  hrofnuchadh^  he  writes,  as  it  is  rapidly  pronounced 
in  common  fpeech,  gar  hrofnuchadh  ;  nor  does  he  at 
the  fame  time  account  fur  the  part  of  fpeech  gar, 
but  leaves  it  myftcrious  and  undetermined.  In  like 
manner  gam,  inftead  of  ag  mo  ;  as,  ag  mo  bhuairadh, 
difturbing  or  tempting  me  ;  gam  bJntairadh:  (o  gam 
etfdachd,  ot  ga  ni'  eifdachd,  in  place  of  ^^  m'  eifdachd, 
hearing  me,  or  hftening  to  me :  fo  likewife  gan,  in 
place  of  ag  an ;  as,  gan  eifdachd,  inftead  of  ag  an 
eifdachd.  The  caufe  of  this  miftake,  I  am  certain, 
is  writing  from  the  ear  only,  without  an  allowance 
for  the  velocity  of  found. 

VIII.  The  infinitive  (formed  by  the  dative  of  tliQ 
prefent  participle)  follows  a  verb  of  motion  ;  as  chu- 

aidk

has  the  noun  governed  going  before  it ;  as,  tha  e 
ceart  Dia  mhoUidh,  it  is  right  to  praife  God :  and  if 
an  adjective  come  before  it,  though  at  a  dillance,  the 
afpirate  h  is  dropped,  or  the  nominative  of  the  parti- 
ciple is  uled  ;  thus,  Is  egln  dhmsh  fcriibka J'?,  I  muft 
write  ;  tha  mi  deo72acb  dol  aniach,  1  am  vvihing  to  go 
out. 

IX.  The  auxiliary  verb  atii,  or  /^i?,  and  is,  with  the 
prepofitiuns  ag  or  le,  govern  the  ablative  ;  tha  e  agad^ 
you  have  it ;  is  learn  e,  it  is  mine. 

X.  Vv'hea  a  fubrtaative  comes  after  the  participle 
perfedl  of  the  ai^ive  voice  (made  by  putting  air  be- 
fore the  prefent),  the  fubftantive  following  is  put  in 
the  dative  ;  as,  air  labhairt  dhamb,  I  having  fpoke, 
or  when  I  fpake.  This  conftruclion  is  equivalent  to 
the  Latin  ablative  abfoiute. 

XI.  The  interje>aions  0,  and  fome  others,  conic

The  Gael,  when  thei^-  language  was  formed,  feem  to 
have  been  in  that  flate  of  fotiety,  when  the  arts  of 
peace  and  war  were  not  entirely  Grangers  ;  when  it

In  the  Galic  certain  letters  have  ftrong,  bold,

Of  Meafure. 

The  Galic  poetr}',  unlike  the  Englifh,  which  is 
generally  confined  to  diflyliables  and  monofyllables, 
admits  of  words  of  any  length.  Galic  poets  never 
yet  wrote  by  any  other  rule  than  the  ear,  and  cer- 
tain pieces  of  nuific ;  and  for  that  reafon,  though 
we  may  eafily  fee  what  fort  of  meafure  each  piece 
delights  in,  the  uniformity  of  the  fame  number  of 
fimilar  meafures  in  every  line,  does  not  always  re- 
turn.    This  may  be  eafily  accounted  for,  by  obferv-

ing,  that  all  compofiiions  liave  hitherto  been  orally 
repeated,  and  which,  by  difi'erent  perfons,  will  ever 
be  ditFerently  performed  :  whereas,  had  thefe  pieces 
been  written,  every  one  would  have  repeated  them 
alike.  Even  Ollian's  poem  could  not  be  fcanned  ; 
for  every  reciting  bard  pronounced  ibme  words  dif- 
ferently, and  fometimes  fubltuuted  one  for  another. 
Neverthclefs,  the  poetry  always  plcafes  the  ear,  and 
is  well  adapted  to  the  mufic  for  which  it  was  origi- 
nally intended  ;  and  tiie  language  and  compofition 
feldom  fail  to  pleafe  the  fancy,  and  gain  approbation. 

Having  no  conefl  edition  of  any  poem  in  the  lan- 
guage, we  can  only  in  general  obferve  what  mea- 
fures  their  poets  employ,  and  recommend  regularity 
and  method  to  future  writers.  Since  vocal  effort  by 
nature  is  the  fame  in  all  languages,  the  Galic  meafures 
by  the  fame  feet  as  every  other  tongue ;  viz.  Dadylcs, 
Spondees,  l^mbs.  Trochees,  Sec. 

Dadlyle  -u«j,  one  long,  and  two  fliort  fyllables ; 
as,  aithrachas,  repentance  ;  dleafdamich,  dutiful  j

AN   ANALYSIS   OF 


Of  the  different  Sorts  of  Poetry, 

Heroics  of  ten  feet  are  generally  iambs  ;  thus, 

Neamhidh !    mar    dhriuchd    anuas    an   iocihlaiiit

'S  ann  trufcan  geal  theid  Neochiontas  'nfm  fios. 

The  meafure  of  Offian's  poetry  is  very  irregular 
and  various.  Generally  he  has  couplers  of  eight, 
though  they  do"  not  rhime,  and  feven,  and  fometimes 
nine  fyllables.  Thefe  feet  are  moft  commonly  tro- 
chee and  dacTyle.  The  trochee  occupies  the  firft, 
daclyle  the  fecond  and  third,  and  a  long  fyllable 
ends  the  line.     Thus,

The  following  (lania,  from  a  beautiful  ode  by 
Macintyre,  though  orighiaily  wrote  to  a  certain

the  fecond  and  fourth  rhime  ;  and  fometimes  the 
firft  and  third.

lancholy that  never  fails  to  gain  its  end.  They  are 
fang  on  board  of  fliips  and  buirlings  by  the  failors, 
when  they  row  or  work,  to  deceive  the  time.     The 

fubjeft 


THE  GALIC  LANGUAGE.        137 

fubjeft  is  generally  the  life  and  adlions  of  fome  chief 
or  relation.  T  he  language  is  fuch  as  to  exprefs  the 
fentiments  and  adions  defcribed  ;  the  mufic,  expref- 
fion,  and  the  ftrokes  of  the  oars,  coinciding  in  fuch 
exaft  time,  both  the  failor  and  paflenger  forget  their 
hardfliips  an<l  fatigue,  even  in  the  moft  inclement 
feafons.  The  Orati  luathaidh,  with  the  fame  view, 
is  fung  when  they  work  on  fho^e,  and  derives  its 
name  from  luthadh,  milling  or  fulling.  Till  very  late- 
ly, fulling  of  cloth  by  mills  was  not  known  in  the 
Highlands,  and  in  fome  parts  is  not  yet  introduced. 
They  fulled  their  cloth  by  laying  it  wet  on  an  extend- 
ed frame  of  rods  wattled  together,  around  which  were 
placed^ as  many  v/omen  as  could  conveniently  be  em- 
ployed, who,  by  an  alternate  motion  of  their  feet, 
kept  the  cloth  in  perpetual  rotation.  One  of  them, 
in  the  mean  time,  fung  the  verfe,  and  all  the  reft  at 
once  joined  in  the  chorus.  And  even  at  this  day, 
when  thefe  fongs  are  fung  in  genteel  company,  a  la- 
dy's handkerchief  or  a  gentleman's  bonnet  fuppHcs  the 
place  of  the  piece  of  cloth,  every  one  taking  hold  of 
a  corner.  The  time  of  this  fpecies  of  fmging  is  not 
fo  quick  as  that  of  the  Reel,  nor  fo  flow  as  the  lurram. 
It  is  exceedingly  hvely,  however,  and  juftifies  what  a 
French  gentleman  obfervfed  of  the  Scots  mufic  :  Let
