Finnanus, The Tenth King.
HIS Son Finnanus succeeded him, who, walking in his Fathers Steps, endeavoured nothing more than to accustom his Sub∣jects to a just and moderate Government; labouring to maintain his Kingly Authority more by Good Will, than Arms: And that he might cut up the Root of Tyranny, he made a Decree, iThat Kings should determine, or command, nothing of great Concernment, without the Au∣thority of their Great Council. He was beloved both by his Subjects, and by Foreigners. He deceased, having Reigned Thirty Years.
