Life

On 27 March (Old Style) the Martyrology of Donegal records Saint Fionntain. The name carries the gloss "Mouth of the Psalms". The same name also appears in the Martyrology of Tallaght and Gorman's martyrology. Nothing else is known of the life, and no synodal canonization stands behind the veneration.
