Gwir yw hyn yma o'r 'stori; ond pa gan wiried yw'r llall, ni's gwn i pe'm crogid, ac nid gwaeth gennyf. Possibly it was told him that the place was promised a N—bl—m—n for a W—lsh Cl—g—m—n now in England, and he with his brother might guess the rest.—Nid oes dim chwareu ffwl pan welir P——n unwaith yn dechreu geran, chwi welwch eraill yn piccio i'r lle cyn i'r gwaed fferru yn y gwythi. And I wish any one that prescribes me confidence and assurance, instead of modesty, &c. would give me a good example by taking a good dose himself. Mae y lle arall yn llaw yr Eagob, a mil i un pwy bynnag a'i caffo, na theifl i fynny ryw beth salach: ac am y lecsiwn, nis gwn i amcan daear pa ddrwg eill honno wneuthur.

And such a proceeding is, in fact, not injurious to any one; for the thing must be disposed of some time or other; and if so, what matters it when it be engaged, or by whom? Somebody must have it; and if one won't, another will: and in this (of all other cases) modesty is least commendable, I had almost said, most inexcusable. You know the way of the world.—Am yr ysgol, ni's gwn yn iawn pa beth i'w ddywedyd: pe gwyddwn yn sicr mai gorfydd aros, fe fyddai wiw gennyf gymmeryd poen; ond y mae Mr. Fychan yn tyngu ac yn rhegu, ac yn crach boeri (chwedl y bobl) na chaf aros yma un flwyddyn ychwaneg. Dyd, dyd! dyma un Risiart Huws, a llythyr bychan yn ei law, yn yr ysgol; felly yr wyf yn deall fod i mi alwyn o
