Mac!!

YOU ARE THE ANCIENT CELTIC TEXT OF YOUR FORBEARS!



You stand for the old ways – the ways trodden by your forebears for millennia.

You stand for the culture preserved through centuries of darkness by anonymous monks in frigid scriptoria.

You stand for the religion professed by your ancestors through seven centuries of foreign oppression.

Your family came here in search of religious and personal Freedom – which they found.

You and your family have served this Nation, have fought for it and bled for it on the Field of Battle.

The Horn of Battle sounds again – and you stand ready to answer it!

"Riamh nár dhruid ó sbairn lann!"

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
