An interleaved copy of Henry Rowlands, Mona Antiqua Restaurata ... (Dublin, 1723, ESTC T139797), with manuscript notes by two former owners, Lewis Morris, [1740s], and Sir J. T. Stanley (later 1st Baron Stanley of Alderley), [1840s].
The notes are to be found on additional leaves inserted at the beginning of the volume (ff. i-ii, pp. 1-84 passim), at the end (pp. 85, 166-168) and on the interleaves, with annotations on some of the original printed leaves by Lewis Morris. The volume also includes a number of pen and wash drawings by Lewis Morris of churches, houses and other objects, including churches at Rhospeirio, Llanrhuddlad (pencil draft), Amlwch, Holyhead, Llanddona, Penrhôs Lligwy, Llanelian (pencil draft), Llanerchmedd, Bodedern, Llanfechell, Llanynghenedl, Llanfflewyn, Llanvair yn Neubwll, Llanddausant, Aberffraw and Bodewryd, the village of Llanfechell, and the seats of Brynddu, Caerau, Bodowen, Bodorgan and Penrhos; these are mostly to be found on the additional leaves at the end of the volume (pp. 85-143 passim).

A composite volume, the first portion of which (pp. 1-78, old foliation 1-38), written in the early eighteenth century, contains selections from Flores poetarum, triads, englynion, the divisions of Wales (pp. 29-33), cywyddau, poems in free metre, and an incomplete table of the contents of the latter portion of the volume (pp. 57-59). The second part of the volume (pp. 79-406, old foliation 1-245 with gaps) has been neatly written in two or more hands, one of the seventeenth century and the others of the early eighteenth century. It contains Welsh poems in strict and free metres from the fifteenth to the eighteenth centuries, many of them either of Anglesey interest or written by Anglesey poets, particularly Lewis Môn, Sion Brwynog and John Griffith of Llanddyfnan.
Among miscellaneous items are copies of the Articles of Agreement between the Parliamentary Commissioners and the inhabitants of Anglesey, 1648 (pp. 295-296); Sir Edward Trevor's riddle (p. 312); and a short bardic grammar (pp. 358-362).
