St
.
Brendan
,
son
of
Finloch
,
grandson
of
Alti
,
was
born
into
the
clan
of
Eogenacht
,
near
Lake
Len
in
the
region
of
Munster
.
He
was
a
man
of
impressive
abstinence
and
famous
moral
character
,
as
well
as
the
abbot
of
about
three
thousand
monks
.
While
occupied
with
his
holy
struggle
,
in
a
place
which
was
named
after
his
own
miracles
,
one
of
his
monks
,
called
Barrind
,
grandson
of
Niall
,
came
to
him
one
evening
.
And
when
he
was
being
questioned
by
the
aforementioned
holy
father
,
he
began
to
cry
and
prostrate
himself
on
the
ground
,
and
to
remain
in
prayer
for
a
long
time
.
St
.
Brendan
raised
that
man
from
the
ground
and
kissed
him
,
saying
"
Father
,
why
do
you
bring
sadness
in
your
arrival
?
Have
you
not
come
for
our
comfort
?
You
ought
to
bring
more
joy
to
the
brothers
.
Show
the
word
of
God
to
us
,
and
restore
our
souls
with
the
various
miracles
which
you
saw
in
the
ocean
.
