me sell you both a nice length. Luck's coming' t'you, it's comin' t'ye both, an" ye'll think o' me as told you before han'. Now which of you will buy first?"
Wedi gwrthod, a chael eu cymell drachefn, a gwenu, ac ymgynghori a'i gilydd, a chael gostyngiad sylweddol ym mhris y nwyddau, tynnodd y ddwy ddarn o arian allan, a bu'r gipsy mor garedig a 'dweyd ei ffortiwn' wrth y naill a'r llall yn y fargen. Tro Ann ddaeth gyntaf.
"I see a fair man comin' towards you with a ring, an' you 're goin' to wear his ring. Before you are two years older you will be a wife. An' ye're one o' the lucky ones, my dear, an' ye'll remember in years to come as I told you so. But, look out! There's some one as is tryin" to do you harm. Keep yer head above water. Keep this bit o' lace as ye've just bought, Miss. Use it to trim a dainty wrapper for your first born. It'll bring luck to him an' you. An' God bless you, Miss."
Yna estynnodd Gwen ei llaw yn grynedig. Trodd y fenyw hagr ei llygaid duon arni am funud gyfan cyn dechreu datgan ei phroffwydoliaeth..
This is going to be a crowded year for you, my dear, ay, a crowded year. There are two men, ay, maybe three, a tryin' for yer 'and. Not one o' the three will you marry. Your 'appiness comes from another direction. For ye're goin' to be 'appy, ay, 'appy an' very lucky. The old gipsy woman knows what she's saying. God tempers the wind to the shorn lamb! You may 'ave some trouble, but after that a great 'appiness is in store for you,-a great 'appiness! God bless you, Miss."
Da oedd gan Gwen i'r hen wraig gael amser i fynd yn ddigon pell o'r tŷ cyn i Dafydd Alun ddychwelyd. Am ddyddiau lawer, bu'r geiriau rhyfedd a glywsent yn destyn siarad gan y ddwy. Rhai ffol iawn yw merched yn ol barn gyffredin y byd, ac nid oedd Ann a Gwen yn wahanol i'r lleill. Credent fod yr hen wraig groen-felyn, drwy ryw allu cyfrin, wedi codi cwrr y flen o'u blaen. Sut y gallai? Ah! pwy wyr? Ond mae llawer o ddirgeledigaethau yn y gread igaeth nas deallwyd eto gan y callaf. Tuedd y ddwy eneth, er hynny, oedd credu yr hyn garent ei fod yn wir, ac ang- hredu neu anghofio'r gweddill.
