Scope and content
The second of two volumes (see also NLW MS 1976B) containing the concluding part of a transcript of Brut y Tywysogion from the Red Book of Hergest, in the autograph of Evan Evans (Ieuan Fardd) (pp. 279-383).
A note by Ieuan (p. 383) states that he transcribed the text of the Brut in 1784 from a copy made by 'R. Davies' in 1781 (see p. 382). The text of the Brut appears to be a faithful transcript of a Llannerch manuscript.
