Sitting next to the Holy Well of St. Brendan on Valentia Island in County Kerry in Ireland, Fr. Andrew reads J. R. R. Tolkien's poem "The Death of Saint Brendan," also called "Imram," which has the great 6th century Irish saint telling something of his great voyage over the waters into the Paradise of the Saints.
