Happy St Patrick’s Day…!

Here are digital copies of the eight surviving manuscripts of the Confessio as well as a letter that Patrick wrote to some soldiers of Coroticus who had taken Christians as slaves.

Thanks for posting! I was looking for some info on St. Patrick. The opening line is very humbling: “My name is Patrick. I am a sinner, a simple country person, and the least of all believers.” And then later in the first section, “I was taken into captivity in Ireland, along with thousands of others. We deserved this, because we had gone away from God, and did not keep his commandments.”

Wow.
