About Peniarth MS 49
Peniarth MS 49, formerly known as Hengwrt MS 302, is a manuscript of Welsh-language poems mostly by the 14th-century bard Dafydd ap Gwilym, but in a few cases by other medieval poets. It was compiled over a period of many years in the late 16th century and early 17th century by the humanist scholar John Davies of Mallwyd. Now held by the National Library of Wales, it is considered the most important large manuscript collection of Dafydd ap Gwilym's poems, valuable for its comprehensiveness, the accuracy of its readings, and the evidence it gives of other, earlier manuscripts.
