Devotion to St. Catherine came to Ireland with Christianity. Revered for her courage and purity, Catherine in the Irish form, Cathleen, became such a popular name that W. B. Yeats chose it for the heroine of his 1899 play “The Countess Cathleen†which was inspired by an Irish folktale. In a time of famine the Devil offers food to the starving poor in exchange for their souls. But Cathleen convinces Satan to take her soul instead. When she dies the Devil comes to collect her soul but God intervenes and carries Cathleen to heaven, saying that “such a sacrificial act cannot justly lead to evil consequences.â€

FALLING
n.
The act of falling or tumbling down; fall.
n.
The act of throwing upward; a rising and falling suddenly; a rolling and tumbling.
n.
A falling of dew.
a.
Going or falling in various directions; not united or aggregated; divided among many; as, scattering votes.
a.
Producing young in a living state, as most mammals, or as those plants the offspring of which are produced alive, either by bulbs instead of seeds, or by the seeds themselves germinating on the plant, instead of falling, as they usually do; -- opposed to oviparous.
prep.
The alternate rising and falling of the waters of the ocean, and of bays, rivers, etc., connected therewith. The tide ebbs and flows twice in each lunar day, or the space of a little more than twenty-four hours. It is occasioned by the attraction of the sun and moon (the influence of the latter being three times that of the former), acting unequally on the waters in different parts of the earth, thus disturbing their equilibrium. A high tide upon one side of the earth is accompanied by a high tide upon the opposite side. Hence, when the sun and moon are in conjunction or opposition, as at new moon and full moon, their action is such as to produce a greater than the usual tide, called the spring tide, as represented in the cut. When the moon is in the first or third quarter, the sun's attraction in part counteracts the effect of the moon's attraction, thus producing under the moon a smaller tide than usual, called the neap tide.
n.
A tree which has fallen into a stream so that its branches project above the surface, rising and falling with a rocking or swaying motion in the current.
a.
To continue without falling due; to hold good; as, a note has thirty days to run.
n.
A state of disagreement; a falling out.
a.
Rising and falling like waves; resembling wave form or motion; undulatory; rolling; wavy; as, an undulating medium; undulating ground.
a.
Of or pertaining to tides; caused by tides; having tides; periodically rising and falling, or following and ebbing; as, tidal waters.
n.
A chain for slinging the lower yards, in time of action, to prevent their falling, if the ropes by which they are hung are shot away.
v. t.
To keep erect; to support; to sustain; to keep from falling; to maintain.
n.
A rising or falling, as of waves; as, the welter of the billows; the welter of a tempest.
n.
That which serves to guard from falling water; a drip or dripstone.
n.
A lid, plug, or cover, applied to an aperture so that by its movement, as by swinging, lifting and falling, sliding, turning, or the like, it will open or close the aperture to permit or prevent passage, as of a fluid.
n.
A loose sleeveless vestment falling in front and behind, worn by certain religious orders and devout persons.
a.
