Henry Salesbury's Dictionary

A volume containing a transcript, 1785, by Evan Evans (Ieuan Fardd) of Henry Salesbury's Dictionary (pp. 5-152). Also included is an elegy to Evan Evans, [1788], in the autograph of David Ellis (pp. 1-2).

Poetry and feasts

A manuscript in the hand of Evan Evans, containing mainly poetry by Bleddyn Fardd, Lewis Glyn Cothi, Goronwy Owen and others (ff. 1-49, 56-62); and a list of feast days (ff. 50-55).
This manuscript was used for the Myvyrian Archaiology of Wales, partly for text and partly for variant notes. Peniarth MS 111 seems to be the original of this manuscript. A note on f. 12 states 'Hyd yma ym tyb i yr yscrifennodd Roesser Morys allan or Llyfr Du o Gaer Vyrddin'.
