"Though thou get this, there is yet that which thou wilt not get. The Twrch Trwyth cannot be hunted, unless thou get Bwlch and Kyfwlch [and Sefwlch], the grandsons of Cleddyf Difwlch. Their three shields are three gleaming glitterers. Their three spears are three pointed piercers. Their three swords are three griding gashers, Glas, Glessic, and Clersag. Their three dogs, Call, Cuall, and Cavall. Their three horses, Hwyrdydwg and Drwgdydwg and Llwyrdydwg. Their three wives, Och and Garam and Diaspad. Their three grandchildren, Lluched and Vyned and Eissiwed. Their three daughters, Drwg and Gwaeth and Gwaethav Oli. Their three handmaids [Eheubryd, the daughter of Kyfwlch; Gorasgwrn, the daughter of Nerth; and Gwaedan, the daughter of Kynvelyn]. These three men shall sound the horn, and all the others shall shout, so that all will think that the sky is falling to the earth."
"It will be easy for me to compass this, although thou mayest think that it will not be easy."
"Though thou get this, there is yet that which thou wilt not get,—the sword of Gwrnach the Giant: he will never be slain except therewith. Of his own free will he will not give it, either for a price or as a gift; and thou wilt never be able to compel him."
"It will be easy for me to compass this, although thou mayest think that it will not be easy."
"Though thou get this, there is yet that which thou wilt not get. Difficulties shalt thou meet with, and nights without sleep, in seeking this, and, if thou obtain it not, neither shalt thou obtain my daughter."
"Horses shall I have, and chivalry; and my lord and kinsman Arthur will obtain for me all these things. And I shall gain thy daughter, and thou shalt lose thy life."
"Go forward. And thou shalt not be chargeable for food or raiment for my daughter while thou art seeking these things; and, when thou hast compassed all these marvels, thou shalt have my daughter for thy wife."
All that day they journeyed until the evening, and then they beheld a vast castle, which was the largest in the world. And lo, a black man, huger than three of the men of this world, came out from the castle. And they spoke unto him: "Whence comest thou, O man?"
"From the castle which you see yonder."
"Whose castle is that?" asked they.
