d fairy-worlds and
goblin-worlds,--"and Duach and Grathach and Nerthach the sons of
Gwawrddur Cyrfach (these men came forth from the confines of
hell); and Huell the son of Caw (he never yet made a request at
the hands of any lord.) And Taliesin the Chief of Bards, and
Manawyddan son of the Boundless, and Cormorant the son of Beauty
(no one struck him in the Battle of Camlan by reason of his
ugliness; all thought he was an auxiliary devil. Hair had he
upon him like the hair of a stag). And Sandde Bryd Angel (no one
touched him with a spear in the Battle of Camlan by reason of his
beauty; all thought he was a ministering angel). And Cynwyl
Sant (the third man who escaped from the Battle of Camlan; and
he was the last that parted from Authur upon Henrtoen his horse).
And Henwas the Winged the son of Erim; (unto these three men
belonged these three peculiarities: with Henbedestyr there was
not anyone that could keep pace, either on horseback or on foot;
with Henwas Adeiniog no fourfooted beast could run the distance

During his whole life a blade of grass bent not beneath his feet,
much less did it break, so light was his tread.) Teithi Hen the
son of Gwynhan (his dominions were swallowed by the sea, and he

remain on it; and owing to this a sickness came on him, and he
pined away during the remainder of his life, and of this he
died.) Drem the son of Dremidyd (when the gnat arose in the
morning with the sun, Drem could see it from Gelli Wis in
Cornwall as far off as Pen Blathaon in North Britain.) And Eidol
the son of Ner, and Glwyddyn Saer (who built Ehangwen, Arthur's
hall.) Henwas and Henwyneb, (an old companion unto Arthur).
Gwallgoyc another. (When he came to a town, though there were
three hundred houses in it, if he wanted anything, he would let
sleep come to the eyes of no man until he had it.) Osla
Gyllellfawr (he bore a short broad dagger. When Arthur and his
