[Daniel Evans], D[aniel]l Ddu, Maesmynach, near Lampeter, to Mr Taliesin Williams, Merthyr Tudfyl. Acknowledging the addressee's letter of Aug. 28. With regard to his kind invitation he feels much obliged to him, but as he is very little in the habit of sojourning he is afraid to make a promise. Congratulating him on being the successful candidate for the prize poem on the Druids. Regretting that according to his views of the 'cynghaneddion' there are in it some few deviations from the right path, but the arrangement and manifestation of the scholar visible in the poem more than make up for the little inadvertencies. He has not seen the Gwladgarwr and consequently can say nothing respecting Arthur. He has no objection to look[ing] over the poem which the addressee alludes to and to mark out such lines as may appear to him incorrect, but he thinks it would be hardly fair to do anything more. 'No time should be lost and it may be hinted to the author to keep a copy lest some accident should happen to the parcel on the way'.
