Ripuariorum et Wesinorum a Lindenbrochio collectas--Unde patet quanto in
honore apud exteros etiam Bardus et Harpator (idem enim pleruuque fuit
munus) habitus esset. Praeter harpam aliud instrumenti genus sibi
peculiare Norwallenses vindicant, quod _Crwth_ vocant--Hinc verbum
Anglicum _Crowdero_ apud Hudibrastum pro _Fiddler_, _or Player upon the
Violin_, ad quod _Crwth_ principium dedisse videtur. Hoc instrumenti
genus fere in desuetudinem abiit, et _violino_ cessit.--Ex sex chordis
felinis constat, nec eodem modo quo _violinum_ modulatur, quamvis a
figura haud multum abludat: in Sudwallia peintus ignoratur:
"Romanusque Lyra plaudat tibi, Barbarus Harpa,
Graecus Achilliaca, _Crotta Britanna_ canat."
