A volume containing transcripts of Welsh verse in strict metre (consisting mainly of 'cywyddau') transcribed, October [18]89 - February [18]90, by I[saac] F[oulkes] [newspaper proprietor and publisher]. Many of the poems are annotated to indicate that they were copied out of a volume in the possession of 'W.J.' of Llangollen, and the whole work appears to be an incomplete transcript of NLW MS 670D, which itself consists of a collection of Welsh poems transcribed by William Jones ('Bleddyn'), antiquary, local historian, etc., of Llangollen. The poets whose work is represented include Gwerfil Mechain, Howel Dafi alias Hywel ap Dafydd ap Ieuan ap Rys (Bardd Raglan), Sion ap Phelppot, Robert ap Dafydd Llwyd, Iorwerth Fynglwyd, Dafydd Llwyd ap Llywelyn ap Gruffydd (o Fathafarn), John ap Howel ap Tudur, Huw Cae Llwyd, Lewys Daron, Bedo Brwynllys, ? Gruffydd ap Ieuan Fychan, Syr Rhys o Garno, Morus ap Hywel ap Tudur, Gruffydd Hiraethog, Huw Llwyd Cynfael, Ifan Tew, Dafydd Nanmor, Cadwaladr Cesail, Huw Ifan ap Huw (o'r Bryn bychan), John Ifan, Rhisiart Cynwal, Huw Machno, Syr John Leiaf, Huw Pennant, Rhys Nanmor, Sion Dafydd Penllyn alias Sion Dafydd Las alias y Bardd Meddw (o Nannau), Syr Dafydd Owain, Gruffydd ab Ieuan ab Llewelyn Fychan, Hywel Cilan, Lewis Môn, Hywel Gethin, Efan ab Gruffydd Leiaf, Watkyn ab Risiart, Hywel ap Reinallt, Mathau Bromffield, Watkyn Clywedog, William Lleyn (Bencerdd), William Cynwal, Simwnt Fychan (Bencerdd), Euan Llafar, Thomas Prys (o Blasiolyn), William Vaughan, Huw Arwystli, Sion Phylip, Richard Phylip, Ifan Dyfi, Lewis Menai, Dafydd Owen, and Llewelyn ap Gutyn. A note on p. 123 indicates that three 'englynion' by [Thomas Edwards] 'Twm o'r Nant', which were to be found at this point in W[illiam] J[ones]'s volume [NLW MS 670D], had not been copied by the transcriber, as he intended including them in a proposed new edition of that poet's works, to be published by him in 1889. A second note on the same page indicates that, similarly, fourteen 'cywyddau' by Tudur Aled had not been transcribed in the present volume, but had been copied into another book, with the intention of publishing these and other poems by the same bard, together with poems by Guto'r Glyn and Sion Tudur. In fact, fourteen 'cywyddau' and four other poems by Tudur Aled, and all of the poems by Guto'r Glyn and Sion Tudur, which appear in NLW MS 670D, have been omitted from the present volume, the presence of poems by the two latter bards in NLW MS 670D being usually indicated by the transcriber by quoting the title, or title and first line, of such works. A note on p. 153 states that eighty ' cywyddau' by Dafydd ap Gwilym [which appeared in William Jones's book, i.e ., NLW MS 670D, pp. 149-263], had been used to correct the published edition of that poet's work ('Yma daw LXXX Cywydd o waith Dafydd ab Gwilym, y rhai a ddefnyddiwyd i gywiro ei waith argraffedig'). These eighty poems, and also five retaliatory poems composed by Gruffydd Grug, in a poetic contention with Dafydd ap Gwilym, and found interspersed among the eighty 'cywyddau', have been omitted from the present volume. A further note on p. 264 states that the last three 'cywyddau' [in NLW MS 670D] had not been copied, as the transcriber believed the text to be so corrupt, that they did not merit transcription. A fly-leaf is marked 'Bk i', and this possibly connects the volume with NLW MS 19313, which, marked on a fly-leaf 'Bk ii', consists of a similar volume of Welsh verse transcribed, March - April [18]90, by I[saac] F[oulkes], again, by inference, from a book in the possession of W[illiam] J[ones].

'Cywyddau' and other poems by Rhys Gray, Hywel Cilan, Huw ap Huw, Sion ap Hywel ap Llywelyn Fychan, Guto'r Glyn, Lewis Glyn Cothi, Dafydd ap Gwilym, Ieuan Dew Brydydd, Ieuan Brydydd Hir, Wiliam Llŷn, Iolo Goch, Gruffudd Gryg, Syr Dafydd Trefor, Dafydd Nanmor, Wiliam Cynwal, Lewis Menai, Sion Tudur, Tudur Penllyn, Gruffudd Hiraethog, Sion Brwynog, Dafydd ab Edmwnd, Lewis Môn, Llywelyn Moel y Pantri, Sion Dafydd Rhys, Hywel Rheinallt, Rhys Goch Eryri, Llywelyn Goch ap Meurig Hen, Ieuan Gethin ab Ieuan ap Lleision, Lewis Morganwg, Huw Llwyd Cynfal, Sion Phylip, Richard Phylip, Tudur Aled, John Davies, Owain Gwynedd and Sion Cent.

An exercise-book marked on the first page 'Copy No. 16' containing transcripts probably by John Jones ('Myrddin Fardd') of poetry by Evan Pritchard ('Ieuan Lleyn'; 1769-1832), with one or two items by John Roberts ('Sion Lleyn'), W[illia]m T[h]omas [?1790-1861] and William Williams. The final item ('Cywydd St. Cowrda' by [Hywel Rheinallt]) has no name appended to it and is incomplete. The poems appear to have been transcribed in separate sections and put together later.

A notebook bearing the number '10' containing transcripts of 'cywyddau' by Wiliam Cynwal (1), Hywel Rheinallt (4), Huw Roberts Llên (1) and Huw ap Dafydd (1) partly in the autograph of John Jones ('Myrddin Fardd') and partly in the form of press cuttings. Most of the pages are blank.

Crickieth'; an englyn by John Lloyd, Llysfasi. The manuscript belonged at one time to Lewis Morris, who filled in gaps, adding notes and some new material.

'Llyfr Gwyn Mechell, sef Casgliad o Ganiadau ... wedi ei ysgrifenu gan William Bulkeley, Yswain o'r Brynddu, Llanfechell yn Mon ...', containing 'cywyddau', etc. by Sion ap Hywel ap Llywelyn Fychan, Morys Dwyfech (Morus ap Dafydd ab Ifan ab Einion), Lewis Glyn Cothi, Syr Dafydd Trefor, Gruffudd Hiraethog, Hywel [ap] Rheinallt, Dafydd ap Gwilym, Sion Tudur, Tudur Aled, Ieuan Dew Brydydd, Dafydd ab Edmwnd, Rhydderch ap Richard, Huw ap Rhys Wyn, Ieuan ap Rhydderch ab Ieuan Llwyd, Lew[y]s Môn, Sypyn Cyfeiliog, Ieuan Deulwyn, Wiliam Llŷn, Sion Phylip, Maredudd ap Rhys, Huw Pennant, Gruffudd ap Dafydd ap Hywel, Rhisiart ap Hywel, Huw Arwystli, Dafydd Manuel, Gruffudd ab Ieuan ap Llywelyn Fychan, Edward Samuel, Wiliam Cynwal, Roger Cyffin, Huw Mor[y]s, Robert Wynn ('Ficcar Gwyddelwern'), John Roger, John Davies ('Sion Dafydd Las'), Rhisiart Brydydd Brith, Simwnt Fychan, Huw Llwyd ('o Gynfal'), Iorwerth Fynglwyd, Iolo Goch, Dafydd Llwyd ap Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, Guto'r Glyn, Bedo Phylip Bach, Deio ab Ieuan Du, Rhydderch ap Sion, Edwart ap Rhys, Syr Dafydd Llwyd, John Griffith (Llanddyfnan), Elen G[oo]dman, Rhisart Gray, Huw Humphreys ('Person Trefdraeth'), Rhisiart [Richard] Bulkeley, Owen Prichard Lewis, Dafydd ap Huw'r Gô ('o Fodedern'), Rhys Gray, Edward Morus, Sion Prys, John Williams ('o Bontygwyddel'), Dafydd Llwyd (Sybylltir), Lewis Meurig ('y Cyfreithiwr'), Peter Lewis, Roger Williams, Wiliam Peilyn, Richard Abram [Abraham], Huw [Hugh] Bulkeley ('o Lanfechell') and Ifan Jones ('o'r Berthddu'); together with extracts relating to State affairs in the reign of Charles I.

A book into which Peter Bailey Williams of Llanrug copied Welsh poetry between 1799 and 1834. It contains 'englynion' by Thomas Anwyl, William Burkinshaw, Cadwaladr Cesail, Syr Rhys Cadwaladr, William Cynwal, Morus Dwyfech, Griffith Edwards [?'Gutyn Padarn'], Rowland Fychan, William Llŷn, Huw Morys, Richard [Rhisiart] Phylip, William Phylip, Edmwnd Prys, Dafydd Thomas, Morgan ap Rhys, Dafydd Llwyd o'r Henblas, Hywel ap Rheinallt, Huw ab Ifan, and others, and 'cywyddau' by Mathew Bromfield, Dafydd ap Maredudd ap Tudur, Dafydd Llwyd ab Llywelyn ap Gruffydd, Guto'r Glyn, Gruffydd Bodwrda, Hywel Dafi, Ieuan Deulwyn, John Griffith, Llanddyfnan, Llawdden, Owain ap Llywelyn Moel, Rhisiart Cynwal, Richard Hughes, Sypyn Cyfeiliog, Tudur Penllyn, and Griffith Williams ('Guttyn Peris'); a large collection of 'penillion telyn'; and a few charms and recipes.

A manuscript in two volumes containing a corpus of Welsh strict-metre verse consisting almost entirely of 'cywyddau', and a few Welsh prose items. The foliation of the 'text' (original f. 1 missing, original ff. 2-21 renumbered 1-20, a previously unnumbered folio between original ff. 21-2 now f. 21, ff. 22-623 as originally numbered with 75 twice and 265 and 577 missed out) is continuous, and the division into vol. I (ff. 1-300), now NLW MS 13061B, and vol. II (ff. 301-623), now NLW MS 13062B, occurs in the middle of a poem. Unnumbered leaves of later origin than those of the text have been inserted at the beginning and end of each volume. The manuscript, sometimes referred to as 'Y Byrdew Mawr', is in the hand of Thomas ab Ieuan of Tre'r-bryn, parish of Coychurch, co. Glamorgan, the scribe of NLW MSS 13063B, 13069B, and 13085B, and was probably transcribed in the last quarter of the seventeenth century, partly from the manuscripts of an earlier Glamorgan copyist, Llywelyn Siôn (see TLLM, tt. 95, 167-73, 218-19, 268; IM, tt. 87, 154, 264; and IMCY, tt. 81, 175). It was probably presented to Edward Williams ('Iolo Morganwg') by the copyist's grandson also named Thomas ab Ifan (see TLLM, tt. 170, 268). The contents include (revised foliation) :- 1 recto - verso, rules re interpreting the significance of dreams in relation to the phases of the moon (incomplete); 1 verso-8 recto, another set of rules (183) for interpreting dreams ('Deall braiddwydon herwydd Daniel broffwyd'); 8 recto-11 recto, a sequence of forty-eight 'englynion' entitled 'Englynion rhwng Arthur a Liflod i nai' (see The Bulletin of the Board of Celtic Studies, vol. II, pp. 269-86); 11 recto-verso, a poem attributed to 'Taliesin ben bayrdd'; 12 recto-15 verso, prognostications including 'Arwyddion kyn dydd brawd', and four 'englynion'; 16 recto-21 recto, 'Llyma anian diwarnodav y vlwyddyn o gwbl oll'; 21 verso, prognostications re birthdays; and 22 recto-623 verso, poems ('cywyddau' unless otherwise indicated) by Iorwerth Vynglwyd (17), Ieuan Rydd, Tydur Aled (12), Howel ap Rainallt (3), Mathav ap Lle'n Goch, Lewys y Glynn (7), Davydd ap Edmwnt (5), Siôn y kent (24), Davydd llwyd (2), Risiart Iorwerth (4), Llawdden (or Ieuan Llawdden) (6), Davydd Nanmor (5), Iolo Goch (8), Ieuan Daelwyn (13), Lewys Morgannwg ( 18), Thomas Lle'n (5, also 1 'englyn'), Howel ap Davydd ap Ieuan ap Rys (17), Ieuan Tew Bry[dy]dd Ievank (3), Huw Kae Llwyd (8), Ieuan Dyvi (2), Ieuan ap Howel Swrdwal (2), Davydd Llwyd Lle'n ap Gr' (3), Risiart ap Rys Brydydd (3), Tomos Derllysg (4), Gyttyn Kairiog, Ieuan Llwyd ap Gwilym, Ieuan Rydderch ap Ieuan Llwyd (3), Robert Laia, Ieuan Du Bowen Lle'nn ap Howel ap Ieuan ap Gronw (7), Rys Goch 'o Vochgarn', Ieuan Brydydd Hir, Gytto'r Glynn (25), Maredydd Brydydd, Howel Swrdwal (3), Thomas Lle'n Dio Powell (2), William Kynwal, Siôn Tydyr (7), Hyw Davi 'o Wynedd' (3), Huw Davi, Tomas ap Siôn Kati (2), Syr Rys 'o Garno', Syr Lewys Maudw, Syr Phylip Emlyn (2), Huw Lewis, Davydd Ddu Hiraddug, Davydd ap Gwilym (10), Bedo Aurddrem, Morys ap Howel, Ieuan Tew Brydydd (9), Siôn Brwynog, Harri ap Rys ap Gwilym (3), Morys ap Rys, Davydd Benwyn (11), Rydderch Siôn Lle' nn, Sils ap Siôn (3), Lle'n ap Owain, Syr Huw Robert L'en (3), Davydd ap Rys, Thomas Gryffydd, Siôn Phylip, Gwyrfyl verch Howel Vychan, Morgan ap Howel (or Powel) (4), Lle'n Siôn (8), Gryffydd Gryg (5), Maredydd ap Rys, Tydur Penllyn (2), Gronw Wiliam, Bedo Phylip Bach (4), Siôn Mowddwy (11), Rogier Kyffin (4), Wiliam Gryffydd ap Siôn (2), Hyw Dwnn, Lewys Môn (5), Wiliam Egwad (2), Ieuan Du'r Bilwg (2), Rys Brydydd, Daio ap Ieuan Du or Daio Du o Benn Adainiol (3), Gwilim Tew Brydydd (10), Rys Brychan, Maredydd ap Roser, Daio Lliwiel, Lle'nn Goch y Dant, Gryffydd Davydd Ychan (2), Syr Gryffydd Vychan, Lang Lewys, Rys Llwyd Brydydd, Meistr Harri Le'n ( 2), Siôn ap Howel Gwyn (2), William Llvn (5), Ieuan Gethin (ap Ieuan ap Llaison) (3), Gwilim ap Ieuan Hen, Ieuan ap Hyw, Gryffydd Hiraethog (5), Rys Pennarth, Davydd Llwyd Mathav (4), Davydd Emlyn, Davydd Goch Brydydd 'o Vyellt' (2), Rys Nanmor (3), Risiart Vynglwyd (2), Watkin Powel (6), Mairig Davydd (4), Ieuan Rauadr, Owain Gwynedd, Morgan Elfel, Syr Davydd Llwyd (3), Ieuan Thomas (4), Rys Goch 'o Eryri' (3), Lle'n vab Moel y Pantri (2), Syr Davydd ap Phylip Rys, Rys Trem, Siankin y ddyfynog (3), Morys ap Lle'nn, Risiart Thomas, Lle'nn Mairig, Gryffydd Llwyd ap Davydd ap Einon, Gryffydd Llwyd ap Einon Lygliw, Hopgin Thom Phylip, Edward Davydd (4), Ieuan Du Davydd ap Owain, Bedo Brwynllys, Thomas ap Rys 'o Blas Iolyn', Thomas Wiliam Howel, Davydd ap Ieuan Ddu, Syr Owain ap Gwilym, Rys ap Harri 'o Euas' (2), Edwart ap Rys, Davydd Manuel 'o Sir Drefaldwyn', SiamsThomas, Thomas Brwynllys, and Swrdwal. The unnumbered folios at the beginning of each volume contain a list of the contents of the volume giving, in the case of the poems, the name of the poet, in a hand bearing a strong resemblance to that of William Owen Pughe, and the title of the poem, in the hand of Edward Williams. The folios at the end of the first volume contain an index of the bards whose works appear in both volumes. This is possibly in the hand of Hugh Maurice, tanner and copyist. On one of the added folios at the end of the second volume is a poem to the Reverend John Jones, D.D., dean of [the cathedral church of] Bangor. Both volumes contain marginalia in the hand of Edward Williams.

Copi ffotostat o 'Harvard MS Welsh 8,' sef cyfrol yn perthyn i gasgliad llawysgrifau William Bodwrda yn cynnwys barddoniaeth Gymraeg gan feirdd o'r 14 gan. hyd at 17 gan., a gopïwyd [1640x1660]. = A photostat facsimile of 'Harvard MS Welsh 8' which is a volume from the collection of manuscripts of William Bodwrda containing Welsh poetry from 14 cent to 17 cent, copied [1640x1660]
Ceir awdlau, cywyddau a darnau o hen ganu brud yn y llawysgrif, nifer ohonynt yn canu i deuluoedd sir Gaernarfon; cerddi a briodolir i Daliesin a Llywarch Hen; a nifer o eitemau sy'n unig gopïau, sef gwaith Huw Pennant (tt. 13-17), Ifan Tew Brydydd (tt. 53-5), Howel ab Reinallt (tt. 65-7), Siôn Phylip (tt. 90-4), Syr Huw Roberts Llên (tt. 94-7), a Siôn Tudur (tt. 127-31). Mae'n debyg nad llaw William Bodwrda mo'r un o'r ddwy brif law yn y gyfrol, ond credir fod y llawysgrif yn gynsail i un neu fwy o lawysgrifau ffolio William Bodwrda, megis BL Add. 14966 a Mostyn 145 (NLW MS 3048D). = The manuscript comprises 'awdlau', 'cywyddau' and old vaticinatory poetry, many relating to Caernarfonshire families; poems attributed to Taliesin and Llywarch Hen; and a number of items which are unique copies, namely the works of Huw Pennant (pp. 13-17), Ifan Tew Brydydd (pp. 53-5), Howel ab Reinallt (pp. 65-7), Siôn Phylip (pp. 90-4), Sir Huw Roberts Llên (pp. 94-7) and Siôn Tudur (pp. 127-31). It seems that neither of the two main hands in the volume belong to William Bodwrda, although it is likely that the manuscript served as the basis for one or more of William Bodwrda's folio manuscripts, particularly BL Add. 14966 and Mostyn 145 (NLW MS 3048D).
