I'm glad you like it. This is my favourite Mythical Ireland video. Russell's prophetic words are equally enthralling and haunting. I get goose bumps when I watch it, and the hairs on my neck stand on end, every time. Russell was a rare gift. Better than Yeats in many people's opinions.
"I am Angus." Conn heard. "Men call me, 'the young'. I am the sunlight in the heart, the moonlight in the mind. I am the light at the end of every dream. The voice forever calling to come away. I am the desire beyond you or tears. Come with me, come with me: I will make you immortal. For my palace opens into the gardens of the sun and there are the fire fountains which quench the heart's desire in rapture". And in the child's dream he was in a palace high as the stars, with dazzling pillars jewelled like the dawn and all fashioned out of living and trembling opel. And upon their thrones sat the danaan gods with their sceptres and diadems of rainbow light and upon their faces, infinite wisdom and imperishable youth.
fantastic!! i'm a huge admirer of AE, i prefer his poetry & prose to yeats'!! the imagery accompanying this reading are mesmerizing!! again, i find nothing nicer than the drive down from belfast to newgrange!!
Do you get liberty caps in that part vof the world . ? The climate is perfect for them ? Something about that oration suggested that. They fixed the place up nice . I told the girls on the gate at BlarneyCastle "" Take the three pounds and fix the place up ,it's a ruin " I wasn't kissing the Blarney stone though. I noticed there was no stone different to the rest of the keep and it was over the only sluice off the top of the keep and I was back standing watch caue Eliebeth was going to send in the troops sooner or later .She was going to get tired of those letters . That Caitlin brought me up a flagon of meed ,she had been trying to get up me kilt for a couple of weeks . Now I am taken short and I don't want to stink up the place what do yo do . and you are charging Englishmen three pound to kiss there . Oh priceless . Besides I already have the gift from me gradma. My mom said we were Duffys out of Limerick I would guess that's why all the clowns in my moms family
Thanks indeed. Russell was extraordinary. This is one of the best videos I've made, I love it.

Thank you for bringing this story to my attention. I wasn't aware of it, and it's relationship to what we now know of Newgrange is fascinating.

Yes, and there's no way it could have looked like that when built . . .
So, that is what Newgrange does... I thought so...So very Gnostic!

World's largest instrument. I wonder if the Pyramids do that.
