### Regula Choluimb Chille: Author: Unknown


This Regula Eremitica seu praescripta fratribus in eremo degentibus, as Colgan calls it, was edited by **Reeves** in the appendix of his edition of Primate Colton's Visitation of the Diocese of Derry, p. 109, from a transcript by **Michael O'Clery**, and accompanied by **O'Curry**'s English translation. The importance of this old document justifies the publication of a second copy, on fo. 40 b 2 of the Oxford Codex [=Rawlinson B 512] to correct various errors in **O'Clery**'s transcript or Reeves' edition.
