520			_a"The Poem-Book of the Gael" by Eleanor Hull is a collection of translations from Irish Gaelic poetry into English prose and verse, written in the early 20th century. This anthology compiles a variety of ancient and medieval Irish poems, showcasing themes of creation, mythology, love, sorrow, and longing within Irish literary traditions. It serves not only as a collection of poetry but also as a vessel for understanding the rich cultural heritage of the Gael. The opening of the collection sets the stage by introducing the "Saltair na Rann" or "Psalter of the Verses," an important religious poem attributed to Oengus the Culdee. It begins with a detailed account of the Creation of the Universe, exploring themes such as the founding of Heaven and Hell and the life of Adam and Eve. Eleanor Hull presents this piece with a blend of reverence towards the original Irish text and an aim to make it accessible to an English-speaking audience, hinting at the wonders of early Irish expression and the blend of poetic artistry with profound spiritual themes inherent in the ancient works.
