About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1828 Excerpt: ...pleasant hills, advancing far, In firm array, to wasteful war, Awaken'd from the gloomy deep, Sprites of hideous might shall sweep Beneath each chieftain, unseen steeds Rushing to immortal deeds. Yet must I touch a note of woe; Yes, for thy generous sire must flow The grateful tear: no more he calls The tuneful bard to enchant his halls; Meteor of death, o'er Britain's foes, In war his ruddy spear arose Undaunted, till the fatal day When silent in the field he lay.

Be this Aneurin's worthy theme, More precious than the ruddy gem! But tinkling soft a dulcet lay To some vain prince, profusely gay, His flowing cup, his bounding steed, My harp disdains the venal deed! With oaks majestic, tow'ring fair, Let not the creeping furze compare; Soon should its sick'ning honours fade Beneath the venerable shade. In vain should fierce invading foes, In vain should Odin's self oppose Cynvelyn's arm; this powerful strain Devotes them on Gododin's plain. Cynvelyn, graced with ample spoil, Returning from the martial toil, Gave to his loyal bard to bear, Studded with gold, his pond'rous spear; Nor vain the gift, his loyal bard Shall strike the harp, a great reward! He too shall have his just renown: Tegvan, the brav...
