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 Douglas Hyde for his unpublished story, 'The Man who never knew Fear.'[9]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.
