| Notes 1 | "ORAN Do Chailein Mac-Cnuimhein. Fear-Ghrianail, an Tirithe, le Gilleasbuig Mac-Phail." |
| Notes 2 | "Archibald M‘Phail was a native of Tyree. He was a very good poet. His failing was a proneness to go to extremes. When he praised he praised too much, and when he condemned he condemned with unnecessary severity. He lived in Baile-Phuil. He died about the year 1830. There are eight of his songs in John MacLean’s manuscript. Mrs Noble of Cape Breton, the subject of John MacLean’s finest elegy, was a daughter of Colin MacNiven." |
