The Gododdin Poems is a book of translated poetry by William F. Skene. The poems are from the Welsh tradition and tell the story of the Gododdin, a tribe of Britons who lived in what is now Scotland. The poems recount the tribe's heroic battle against the Angles in the 6th century. Skene's translation is considered one of the most accurate and faithful to the original Welsh text. The book also includes a historical introduction to the Gododdin and their culture, as well as notes on the translation and interpretation of the poems. This edition of The Gododdin Poems is a valuable resource for scholars of Welsh literature, history, and culture, as well as anyone interested in ancient British history and mythology.The men went to Catraeth with the day: Have not the best of battles their disgrace? They made biers a matter of necessity. With blades full of vigour in defence of Baptism. This is best before the alliance of kindred.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
