For those wishing to know: this is a later edition, which a great number 
of changes, from the one I've just posted as eText 40421.  This adds an 
Appendix on the Welsh Triads, supposedly translated by Twm Shon Catti [the 
name occurs with variant spellings].  There's a whole set of textual 
problems with this later edition: although it claims to be by the author 
of the original 1828 book the author thinks his book was first published 
in 1836.  It's riddled with mis-prints and by lacking a full title page 
looks suspicously like a pirated edition.  Nevertheless it introduces some 
new incidents not in the original, and tones down most of the rough plot 
edges of the original too.

All the best,
