 I have to thank Lady Wilde for leave to give 'Seanchan the Bard1' from her Ancient Legends of Ireland (Ward and Downey), the most poetical2 and ample collection of Irish folklore3 yet published; Mr. Standish O'Grady for leave to give 'The Knighting of Cuculain' from that prose epic4 he has curiously5 named History of Ireland, Heroic Period; Professor Joyce for his 'Fergus O'Mara and the Air Demons'; and Mr. Douglas Hyde for his unpublished story, 'The Man who never knew Fear.'[9]
 
I have included no story that has already appeared in my Fairy and Folk Tales of the Irish Peasantry (Camelot Series).
 
The two volumes make, I believe, a fairly representative collection of Irish folk tales.
