Your very welcome. The Carmina Gadelica is a fairly famous collection of old tales. The write up on Gaelsong.com reads;
"During his travels in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland in the 1800s, Alexander Carmichael spent hours with Gaelic speakers in their huts in front of peat fires listening as they "intoned in a low, recitative manner" these ancient incantations. A unique collection of living spirituality drawn from the depths of Celtic Christianity, handed down through countless generations, the Carmina Gadelica is the most complete anthology of Celtic oral tradition ever assembled. 512 pages, paperback."
I never expected to find the whole text online, thanks for asking for info, it is cool to come onto the forums, see a question and go search for the answer...you run across some real gems that you never would have went searching for. I may add this to the books forum as well.
Peace
Jay
