The gallant chidings rise,

All Snowdon’s craggy chaos yells

With many mingled cries.

That day Llewellyn little loved

The chase of hart or hare;

And small and scant the booty proved,

For Gelert was not there.

Unpleased, Llewellyn homeward hied,

When, near the portal-seat,

His truant Gelert he espied,
