A few rods farther on the canoe was over the shallows and floating easily in a flooded jungle of saw grass which stretched away as far as the eye could reach. "What's this?" demanded Payne. "Oko make river end." "What?" "Oko lake. River end here. We there." Payne drew out his maps and studied them. "Where's Deer Hammock?" "Echu Hammock there."
The water grew shallow on both sides of the channel and the grass more dense. The Indian rose to his toes and peered above the grass tops as they neared the hammock. "Echu!" he said presently, reaching for his rifle. "Deer ojus on hammock." Silently the dugout crept toward the high ground, the Indian parting the saw grass to peer ahead.
And in this monastery did Cynnia abide, until at length with many holy virgins she rested there in the Lord. The King Echu is raised from Death. And after some time had passed, the King Echu was reduced to the bed of sickness, and when he perceived that his strength failed, and the day of his death approached, he sent a messenger to call Saint Patrick unto him.
"Da mihi hunc locum," said Patrick. "Quasi non babussemus clericos," said Enda. On the morrow venit Enda et suus filius secum, Echu Caech. Patrick had turned off to pray, and his people to baptize, to confer orders, and to propagate the faith. The two Maccairthinns were there at the time, namely, qui est at Clochar et qui est at Domhnach-mor-Maighe-Tochair.
This Echu, son of Enda, is at this day called Bishop Echan. After this he went to the Lei, on the east of the Bann, ubi non capiebant homines pieces nisi in nocte usque ad illud tempus. Deinde imperavit eis Patricius ut in die caperent, et sic erit in finem seculi. Patrick went afterwards into Dal-Araidhe and Dal-Riada.
And Patrick came unto the country of Neyll, wherein reigned a king named Echu, and he had one beloved daughter named Cynnia, whom he intended at a fitting time to give in fitting marriage.
