CYMMRODORION 1820 To the Right Honourable John Glynn Lord Chief Justice of England MY Lord I might justly incurre your just Reprehension for presuming to prefix your Name to patronize so rude and indigested Collection which in testimony of the innate affection I ever bore my Native Country I have essayed spurred thereunto with the longing desire of manifesting a pittance as Interest of that principle Service I had devoted to attend your Honours commands How seasonable it may accest to ataque your Lordships perusal I can better wish then pretend cognizance of I presume many fresh pallats not seasoned with mature deliberation cannot well relish nor resent these old superannuated relicts who nothing dandle but their own mishapen prodigies and abortive bratts My Lord I have gleaned the Remains of our Brittish Bards which time hath honoured with such hoary Hair that most of them writes above a 1000 years from whose mouths you may please to recieve an account of all the revolutions and vicissitudes that hath and may befall the Scepter of England the late warres the Kings death his Highness Inauguration and now they having given your Honour an account in their Mother tongue they address themselves to your Lordship for shelter from envies darts and though I have exposed my self to the publique view and censure of all that can read English yet having the influence of your Lordships name I value not what darts malice may or can ejaculate against me for indeed I could not expect treating upon a subject of this nature to please all and so having discharged my conscience in rendering these Gleanings as well as I was capable into English without favour or affection beg license to stile as I ever hope to approve my self Your Lordships faithfully devoted Servant THO. PUGH To the READER REader thou art here presented with many antient Prophesies some of 11 and others of 1200 years antiquity the rest very antient but for want of a Corrector sufficiently intelligent in the Brittish tongue that part of the Book viz. the Welsh has not escaped the Press free from Errata's The language these Prophesies were delivered in is so very antient that it differs much from what is now spoken and upon that account I could not for the present the Collector of these Prophesies living very remote procure any so intelligent in that Tongue as to have warranted it free from Errata's but as the faults will easily appear to those that understand the Language so they will by them as soon be corrected and for those who only understand the English they are to them of no concernment but if opportunity hereafter offer it self and the complection of the time deserve it those faults will not only be corrected for a further satisfaction to those who understand the Brittish tongue but some marginal Notes will be added for their more easie understanding but I doubt not but they will meet with many Opposers who oftentimes resist the apparentest Truth with a sturdie defiance because it makes not for their espoused interest and those kinde of men reckon the most currentest Coyn. where the very finger of heaven is p●rceptible but as counterfeit because it has not the Image of their Caesar imprest upon it however if thou wilt spend so much time as to look them over thou wilt finde their Language strange as to the late King and his Family his Highnesse and Posterity What was then delivered by them hath been ever since preserved and conveyed from age to age and now brought to publick view and though they seem great strangers to most men by reason of their hoary hair yet there are many Persons living both of Honour and Integrity who have converst with them in antient manuscripts many years before the breaking out of the late Warrs besides many Out-landish Authors for many hundred of years past made use of their names and prophesies upon several occasions but it 's true many foreign antient Writers judged Taliesin rather a Magician then an Angel as the antient Brittains termed him in regard of those wonderfull things which he did when he lived amongst them 1200 years since and forasmuch as no account could be given of his exstraction and Genealogie But my purpose is not to Apologize for him in either respects but leave him to be judged by them that reade him only I thought good to acquaint thee That the passage concerning the original and descent of the late King made use of in these Prophesies thou shalt finde at large in Holingsheds History of Scotland pag. 246. This I thought good to mention least the Reader be possest with prejudice against the Collector of these Prophesies who quotes that passage out of Powels Chronicle which is very rare or not to be had Vale.
