Re: OT: What language is this?

"Gaelic" is a tad non-specific.  Is it indeed Irish?  Are the accents
graves just a typographical variant of the usual accents aigus?

Oh, and speaking of Irish: in honor of the holiday...

"This story shall the wise man teach his son;
And Padraig shall ne'er go by,
>From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remember'd;
We few, we merry few, we band of drunkards;
For he to-day that spills his beer with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so gentle,
This day shall vile his condition:
And gentlemen in Ireland now a-bed
Shall think themselves ablessed they were not here,
Yet hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That drank with us upon Saint Patrick's day!
