Amyr, and Rheu Rhwyd
Dyrys, and Rhun Rhudwern, and Eli, and Trachmyr, (Arthur's chief
huntsmen). And Llwyddeu the son of Kelcoed, and Hunabwy the son of
Gwryon, and Gwynn Godyvron, and Gweir Datharwenniddawg, and Gweir the son
of Cadell the son of Talaryant, {75b} and Gweir Gwrhyd Ennwir, and Gweir

Ireland was he). Sol, and Gwadyn Ossol and Gwadyn Odyeith. (Sol could
stand all day upon one foot. Gwadyn Ossol, if he stood upon the top of
the highest mountain in the world, it would become a level plain under
his feet. Gwadyn Odyeith, the soles of his feet emitted sparks of fire
when they struck upon things hard, like the heated mass when drawn out of
the forge. He cleared the way for Arthur when he came to any stoppage.)
Hirerwm and Hiratrwm. (The day they went on a visit three Cantrevs
provided for their entertainment, and they feasted until noon and drank
until night, when they went to sleep. And then they devoured the heads

hot nor the cold, the sour nor the sweet, the fresh nor the salt, the
boiled nor the raw.) Huarwar the son of Aflawn, (who asked Arthur such a

Arthur; (whatever barn he was shown, were there the produce of thirty
ploughs within it, he would strike it with an iron flail until the
rafters, the beams, and the boards, were no better than the small oats in
the mow upon the floor of the bar
