ries succeeding St. Kevin's time, Glendalough is often mentioned, with its more renowned bishops, abbots, and clerics, in the Irish Annals. 331 The city began to decline in the twelfth century ; when it became the prey of robbers and depredators. 332 In 1214, 333 we are told, that through the then dominant English influence, the See of Glendalough was annexed to that of Dublin. The hardy sons of the mountain long resisted the annexation, and persisted for
"
the Bishopric of the two Lakes," as an independent ecclesiastical jurisdiction. On the 30th of May, a. d. 1479, it was at length surrendered,334 in the Cathedral of St. Patrick, Dublin. Some churches—especially in the Diocese of Dublin and Glendalough—have been erectedtocommemoratethisillustriousabbotandpatronsaint. Severalother memorials to honour him remain. In the city of Dublin, a parish was for- merly dedicated to St. Kevin. Within it were a church and a cemetery. Not far from the latter, in modern times, has been erected a fine Gothic church. 335 Around this, as a nucleus, has grown a great increase of houses and inhabi- tants. Adistricthadbeendefined,byHisEminence,CardinalPaulCullen,
Archbishop of Dublin, to mark the outlines of the new Catholic Parish of St. Kevin. Close beside this church are the spacious and well-attended schools of the Christian Brothers, also rejoicing in the patronage of St. Kevin. A street in the city of Dublin is also called St. Kevin's, while a holy well, dedicated to him was known as St. Kevin's well. 336 In the county of Wick- low, some modern Catholic churches and chapels have been dedicated to St. Kevin; but,it isdifficulttoprocureanexactlistofsucherections. 33? Atthe entrance to the Glen of the Downs, and at the right hand side of the road proceeding southwards, springs a well, 338 formerly called Tubber nabrin. This is reputed holy. 33^ Before the commencement of this century, a patron 3-t° used to be held there, each 3rd day of June, 241 which is the Feast Day of St. Kevin. InScotland,aswellasinIreland,thissaintwasheldingreatvene-

336 In the kitchen of Mr. Donegan, a

a stone trough, formerly belonging to St. Kevin's well, and which was within the yard of that house.
