EVIR- ALLEN
A
POEM.
The Ar<iti,ment,
1 his Poem, like many of OfTians compofitiong,
is addrefs'd to his favorite Malvina. The fub-
ject of it is his voyage to Ireland , in his youth,
where he married Evirallen the daughter o£
Branno chief of Lego. It differs in many ma-
terial circumftances from the defcription given
in the 4th. book of Fingal. What to afcribe this
to is difficult to determinate , as tradition is
very obfcure on this point.
