Awdlau Wiliam Kynwal

A volume containing forty-three odes composed and written by Wiliam Kynwal between 1567 and 1576 (ff. vii verso, 1-93). He began the manuscript at Cerrig Ellgwm 'yn fy siambr vy hun yngheric Ellgwm y trydydd dydd o vis mai o vewn yssbyty dol gynwal a duw a wyr na wnn pwy na[c] ym ha le y gorffennir ef' (ff. v verso-vi). The odes are headed by the arms of the persons addressed, except in the case of the odlau merched, in which quaint sketches of women are substituted.
Also included are a prologue (ff. 5-6) and an incomplete table of contents (f. 6 recto-verso). At the end of the manuscript there is a rough copy of an ode by Huw Machno (ff. 95-96), who has also written some notes on the folios at the beginning (ff. i-iv).
