[A prophecy of Taliesin relating to the ancient Britons is still extant, and has been strikingly verified. It is to the following effect:—

“Their God they shall worship,

Their language they shall retain,

Their land they shall lose,

Except wild Wales.”]

A voice from time departed yet floats thy hills among,

O Cambria! thus thy prophet bard, thy Taliesin sung:

“The path of unborn ages is traced upon my soul,

The clouds which mantle things unseen away before me roll,

A light the depths revealing hath o’er my spirit pass’d,
