An English translation by David Howell ('Llawdden') of Taliesin Williams ('Ab Iolo'): Traethawd ar Hynafiaeth ac Awdurdodaeth Coelbren Y Beirdd, ... (Llanymddyfri, 1840), with copious additions and revisions by Thomas Stephens, Merthyr Tudful. A note by J. H. Davies on the fly-leaf states that the translation was made in 1853, at the instance of Thomas Stephens. The original essay was awarded a medal and a prize at the Cymreigyddion y Fenni Eisteddfod, 1838. The end of the text is imperfect, one leaf probably being wanting. The spine is lettered 'Coelbren y Beirdd'.
