    Per wikipedia: The Trinity College harp (also known as Brian Boru's Harp) is a medieval musical instrument on display in the long room at Trinity College Dublin in Ireland. It is an early Irish harp or wire strung cláirseach. It is dated to the 14th or 15th century and, along with the Queen Mary Harp and the Lamont Harp, is one of the three oldest surviving Gaelic harps.[1] The harp was used as a model for the coat of arms of Ireland.

    My attempt at reading the handwritten bit below: This harp dates from about A.D. 1400 AD. It is believed by Petrie (???) to have been used for ecclesiastical(?) purposes. It bears the ??? of O’Neil, and the symbol HIS in Gothic letters. It was actually played in the streets(?) of Limerick by Arthur O’Neil in 1760.

    Niall McAuley Later in the wiki article: In 1961 the harp was exhibited in London, and it was dismantled and reconstructed by the British Museum into the wider shape it has nowadays, being the playable mediaeval form. The earlier heraldic and trade mark designs that were modelled on it were based on a thinner form that was the result of a bad restoration in the 1830s. Visitors are therefore often surprised at how wide the real harp is, compared to the harp on Irish coins.

    "Petrie" on the handwritten label is George Petrie (1 January 1790 – 17 January 1866), an Irish painter, musician, antiquary and archaeologist en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Petrie_(artist) Script below is: "See Petrie in Preface to Bunting's Ancient Music of Ireland Ed. 1840"
