    and the sea were ink and all the quills of the fowl were pens and all that were born since Adam and Eve were clerks they could not write down the one third of the pains of hell."
    Oisin then asked for baptism. While he was being baptised St Patrick put the Staff that he was carrying accidentally through Oisin's foot,
    "I am sorry", said St Patrick, " I have your foot cut".
    and Oisin said
    "I thought it was part of the baptism".
    St Patrick then said that Oisin was forgiven.
