| Remark | Liber Hymnorum; This is not exactly a liturgical book, but a collection of forty hymns in Latin and Irish, almost all of Irish origin, with canticles and ccclxv orationes quas beatus Gregorius de toto psalterio congregavit. There are explanatory prefaces in Irish or Latin to each hymn. Some of the hymns are found in the Bangor Antiphoner, the Leabhar Breac, and the Book of Cerne. There are two manuscripts of this collection, not agreeing exactly, one in trinity College, Dublin, of the eleventh century, and one in the Franciscan Convent at Dublin, of somewhat later date.
