Ireland, in the fifth century, was divided into five provinces, each governed by a king, under whom were several lesser chieftains. These provincial kings were themselves subject to the supreme monarch, who resided in the royal palace of Tara; but they appear not to have shown much regard to his authority beyond the payment of a regulated tribute. It might be supposed, from the way in which some writers have spoken of the Irish, that even some centuries later than this period they were mer...

Very few of the works of St. Patrick have come down to use over the centuries. This is a rare insight into his mind which has never before been translated into English. Here Patrick lays out three separate places: Earth, Heaven, and Hell, and give his own argument for the nature of these locations and the question of time that is associated with all three.

While the specifics of these canons are unlikely to have been from the hand of St. Patrick, they are attributed to him. They also grant insight into some of the early issues that the Irish church was facing in the century after the death of Patrick. Full communion with Rome had yet to be achieved, and the standardization of church policies needed to be addressed. This is a document that stands as a landmark text to the Irish church and the growth of Christianity in Ireland and Scotland.
