|Language=Stokes (1903): “The indications in the hymn itself point to the early part of the ninth century. A superior limit may be found in the mention of Joseph, the husband of Mary, who seems not to be commemorated in Irish liturgies before about 800 A.D. An inferior limit may be found in the treatment of final vowels. As the rhyme shews, there is yet e.g. no confusion between final <em>‑ae</em> and final <em>‑a</em>, a confusion well established for the middle of the ninth century by the St Gall glosses on Priscian. The language of the hymn strongly resembles that of the <em>Félire Óengusso</em>, which belongs to about 800 A.D. The most striking departure from Old-Irish usage is the use of <em>anacht</em> (l. 22) for the relative <em>anachte</em>.”.
