Cywyddau ac awdlau

A volume of Welsh poetry mostly in the hand of Humphrey Davies (Wmffre Dafis), [vicar of Darowen], contining copies of cywyddau and awdlau by well-known and less known poets from the early fourteenth century to the early seventeenth century (pp. 25-492). Some poets are well represented, especially Ieuan Tew, Sion Keri and Huw Arwystl.
Twelve folios at the beginning (pp. 1-24), as well as six (formerly loose) folios at the end (pp. 493-504) are in the hand of Evan Lloyd of Blayn glyn, a former owner of the volume. These include a copy of a version of the dialogue between Hadrian and Epictetus, beginning: 'llyma ymddiddanion Rhwng adram [sic] emerodr Rhufein ag Epig y ddav wr calla yn y bvd', which differs greatly from the text found in Llyfr Yr Angkr and the Hengwrt MSS (pp. 3-7). Two other leaves (now bound in at the end of the volume), one bearing a Welsh poem in free metre (pp. 505-506) and the other an assessment of Derwen parish, [Denbighshire] (pp. 507-508), do not seem to belong to this volume.
