The Book of Fenagh Irish : Leabar Fidhnacha is a manuscript of prose and poetry written in Classical Irish by Muirgheas mac Pháidín Ó Maolconaire in the monastery at Fenagh, County Leitrim. [1] It was commissioned by Tadhg O'Roddy, the coarb of the monastery, and is believed to derive from the "old Book of Caillín" (Irish : Leabar Chaillín), a lost work about Caillín, founder of the monastery. [1] Ó Maolconaire began work about 1516. [1]
