Scope and content
A text of 'Dosparth Edeyrn Dafawd Aur' written by Lewis Richards, Darowen Vicarage in 1821. The manuscript is a transcript of Cwrtmawr MS 250 and formed the basis of the spurious Dosparth Edeyrn Davod Aur (Llandovery, 1856), published for the Welsh MSS Society, with an English translation and notes by John Williams ('Ab Ithel') (see John Morris-Jones: 'Dosbarth Edern Dafod Aur', Trans. Cymm., 1923-4, 1-28). The 'cywyddau' by Ieuan ab Hywel Swrdwal and Gruffudd ab Ieuan ab Llywelyn and 'Chwedl Rhitta Gawr, o Lyfr Iago ab Dewi' which follow the treatise in Cwrtmawr MS 250 are also included in the present volume.
