Ceiniogau, dimeiau mân,
Yn eu taith, a gânt weithian.

Od aeth gwr odiaeth gariad,
A wnai wiw les yn ei wlad,
Rhad dyfo i'r etifedd,
I roi'n ei ol yr un wedd;
A Duw mawr, Blaenawr ei blaid,
A ranno nef i'r enaid!
Dyna fan diau na fydd,
Ni wiw gobaith, i gybydd.


MARWNAD WILLIAM MORUS.

Llanvair Talhaiarn, Jan. 31st, 1764

Dear Sir,[1]— I have not heard from you a long while, though I sent you some franks to write to me. Mr. Justice Barrington wrote me word that you were so good as to promise to inspect the press in the Welsh part of my book that is to be printed by Mr. Dodsley. He says that some of his learned friends are particularly pleased with Hirlas Owain Cyfeiliog, and an Elegy on a Young Lady of Merionethshire, in that collection. By this I conceive no small hopes of the book proving acceptable to men of taste and learning; and it will, if you take care of the Welsh part, as I make no doubt but you will, be some credit to our country.

I have seen Hugh Jones of Llangwm here
