This work contains both volumes of Ithel's translation of a collection of manuscripts in Cymric. It presents a historical view of the progression of Bardism to Druidism to Christianity. In reply to the argument that these two tenets were at odds the text suggests that the Bards believed that all things were tending to perfection and that when they embraced Christianity they must have viewed it as a stage in advance of their former creed of Druidism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
