But the natives of Ireland and Scotland belonged to another stock and spoke another language; the Briton understood their Gaelic probably as little as the German understood the language of the Scandinavians. The Caledonians--with the Iverni the Romans hardly came into contact--are described throughout as barbarians of the wildest type.
