“What remains of...[St. Patrick’s]...writings are two complete letters, some fragments from other letters, and—probably his own in good part—a set of canons or rules of ecclesiastical discipline. These, together with the hymn of St. Secundinus in honour of St. Patrick and the so-called Lorica of St. Patrick, are the earliest documents of the Irish Church that have survived.” —“Introduction: The Life and Writings of St. Patrick”
