St. Patrick's Prophecies: Irish Faith Will Never Die

This episode will cover St. Patrick's incredible prophecies about the Emerald Isle and the five mysterious favors that he obtained from God during his forty days of fasting in the mountains. In his time of solitude, he fought off devils seeking to tempt him in such a brilliant way that they fled in terror, which definitely reminded me of St. Michael.

The Trias thaumaturga (gol., Louvain, 1647) of of the Franciscan COLGAN is the most complete collection of the ancient Lives of the saint. The Kemare Life of Saint Patrick (CUSACK, Dublin, 1869) presents from the pen of HENNESSY the translation of the Irish Tripartite Life, with copious notes. WHITLEY STOKES, in the Rolls Series (London, 1887), has given the textand translation of the Vita Tripartita, together with many original documents from the Book ofAmragh and other sources. The most noteworthy works of later years are SHEARMAN, Loca Patriciana (Dublin, 1879); TODD, St. Patrick, Apostle of Ireland (Dublin, 1864); BURY, Life of St. Patrick (London, 1905); HEALY, The Life and Writings of St. Patrick (Dublin, 1905).
