Manuscripts

This poem is preserved in a collection of Lewys Glyn Cothi’s poems in Llst 7, a manuscript of the first quarter of the sixteenth century. This part of Llst 7 is thought to be a copy of a manuscript in the hand of the poet himself (see GLGC xxx–xxxi). Lewys’s poems in Llst 7 were copied by John Davies, Mallwyd in BL Add 14871 in 1617, and BL Add 14963 is a copy of BL Add 14871 by Owain Myfyr.
