Scope and content

Part of a manuscript in the hand of, and including poetry by, Dafydd Jones (1743-1831), Penrhyndeudraeth, 'Dafydd Siôn Siâms' or 'Dafydd ab Ioan ab Iago' (see. DWB, p. 448). It appears that this manuscript, together with NLW MSS 5553B and 10898B, once formed a complete manuscript volume. Examples of the poetical items contained in this manuscript have never been recorded before. The cywyddau and carolau belong to the period 1802-21. Fourteen items are to be found in this manuscript portion, including poems requesting various items, elegies, warnings against the threat of invasion by Napoleon Bonaparte, 1803, and against the unfaithfulness of Anglican clergy, as well as carolau plygain.
