and_o the_o mistake_n lie_v here_o that_o king_n cormeick_n or_o cormeig_n for_o so_o the_o old_a highlander_n term_v he_o have_v the_o epithet_n of_o pheun_n which_o in_o the_o irish_a or_o old_a highland_n language_n signify_v fair_a as_o the_o tutor_n of_o mcleane_n inform_v i_o so_o that_o pheun_fw-mi cormeich_n shall_v be_v no_o more_o than_o cormachus_n pulcher_n and_o not_o filius_fw-la cormachi_n for_o the_o highlander_n do_v not_o make_v use_n of_o the_o syllable_n fin_fw-fr but_o the_o syllable_n mack_n and_o vic_n when_o they_o intend_v to_o express_v patronymick_n for_o if_o fin_n be_v a_o patronymick_a particle_n and_o hold_v so_o in_o the_o nephew_n fincormachus_n why_o not_o also_o in_o the_o uncle_n findocus_n and_o so_o if_o fin_n signify_v filius_fw-la his_o

the_o irish_a tongue_n and_o find_v he_o always_o call_v feun_n cormeich_n have_v write_v he_o fincormachus_n and_o if_o it_o be_v retort_v that_o if_o fin_n be_v but_o pheun_fw-mi in_o fincormachus_n why_o shall_v it_o not_o be_v also_o feun_fw-mi in_o findocus_n i_o answer_v the_o parity_n hold_v not_o in_o epithet_n and_o patronymick_n for_o fin_n be_v but_o epithetital_a in_o fincormachus_n to_o the_o person_n cormeig_n which_o be_v a_o full_a and_o christen_v name_n and_o there_o be_v yet_o a_o stock_n of_o people_n who_o patronymical_o surname_n themselves_o mackormeichs_n from_o one_o
