Excerpt from Welsh Folk-Lore: A Collection of the Folk-Tales and Legends of North Wales; Being the Prize Essay of the National Eisteddfod, 1887 The many books from which quotations are made are all mentioned in connection with the information extracted from their pages. Welsh Folk-lore is almost inexhaustible, and in these pages the writer treats of only one branch of popular superstitions Ancient customs are herein only incidentally referred to, but they are very interesting, and _worthy of a full description. Superstitions associated with particular days and seasons are also omitted. Weather signs are passed over, Holy wells around which cluster superstitions of bye-gone days form no part of this essay. But on all these, and other branches of Folk-lore, the author has collected much ih formation from the aged Welsh peasant, and possibly some day in the uncertain future he may publish a continuation of the present volume. He has already all but finished a volume on the Holy Wells of North Wales, and this he hopes to publish at no very distance period.
