coal-pence plant yr ysgol yn dyfod i mi, yr hyn a fydd fwy na digon i'm bwrw dros flwyddyn; ac, ystgatfydd, mi gaf beth arian i'w poccedu, o herwydd fod rhifedi'r llangciau yn nghylch 60, neu 70, a phob un ei swllt a fyddant arferol a thalu. Os digwydd i chwi fod yn gydnabyddus â neb cyfrifol yn y wlad yna a ewyllysiai yrru ei blentyn i'r ysgol i Loegr er mwyn dysgu Saesoneg, mae fel y byddwch cyn fwyned a'i gyfarwyddo ef yma. I can undertake to board half a dozen as reasonably as any body else in this County, and no care or diligence shall be wanting.

Gadewch wybod yn y nesaf pa amser o'r flwyddyn y bydd y cig moch a'r ymenyn rataf yn Môn. Well, to be sure, "Cynt y daw dau ddyn na dau fynydd." Dyma fi heddyw wedi taro wrth beth o'ch prydyddiaeth chwithau. You sent me in both your last letters some of my poetry that I had lost, and now, probably, I may be even with you. This very day was given me a book that was once yours, and may be again if you please. It is John Rhydderch's Dictionary, printed at Salop in 1725, on the title page is written by your own hand, "William Morris his Book, 1728." On the white leaves before it is a comparative list of Welsh and French words. In the white leaves after it are additions of some words omitted in the body of the book, all your own MSS; then follows the watch word, in eight different languages, viz., Welsh, English, French and Spanish, &c., as, Pwy sy yna? Who is there? Qui est la ? Qui a si? &c., &c.; then comes an Englyn, dated Chester, June, 1731, which is as follows—

Diosg a wneiff, dysg i ni.
Wm. Morris, i'r Awdwr.
The Book was given me by one Tom Brownbill, a Roman Catholic gentleman that now lives at Kirkdale, alias Kerto, who knows you very well, and thinks the book was left
