manx celtic music and dance
The belief on the Isle of Man was that St. Bridget ("Breeshey" in Manx Gaelic) could be found seeking for a place to sleep on the 31st of January, the day before her Feast Day. So you must be prepared for her to stay - with food and a bed ready.
Mona Douglas collected this Manx Gaelic song, "Invocation to St Bridget" from Mrs Bridson of Glen Maye.
