of Arthur, and Llawvrodedd Varvawc, and Kadwr Earl of Cornwall,
Morvran the son of Tegid, and Rhyawd the son of Morgant, and Dyvyr
the son of Alun Dyved, Gwrhyr Gwalstawd Ieithoedd, Adaon the son of
Taliesin, Llary the son of Kasnar Wledig, and Fflewddur Fflam, and
Greidawl Galldovydd, Gilbert the son of Kadgyffro, Menw the son of
Teirgwaedd, Gwrthmwl Wledig, Cawrdav the son of Caradawc Vreichvras,
Gildas the son of Kaw, Kadyriaith the son of Saidi, and many of the
men of Norway and Denmark, and many of the men of Greece, and a crowd
of the men of the host came to that council.

"Iddawc," said Rhonabwy, "who was the auburn haired man to whom they
came just now?" "Rhun the son of Maelgwn Gwynedd, a man whose
prerogative it is, that he may join in counsel with all." "And
wherefore did they admit into counsel with men of such dignity as are
yonder a stripling so young as Kadyriaith the son of Saidi?"
"Because there is not throughout Britain a man better skilled in
counsel than he."

Thereupon, behold, bards came and recited verses before Arthur, and
no man understood those verses but Kadyriaith only, save that they
were in Arthur's praise.

And lo, there came four-and-twenty asses with their burdens of gold
and of silver, and a tired way-worn man with each of them, bringing
tribute to Arthur from the Islands of Greece. Then Kadyriaith the
son of Saidi besought that a truce might be granted to Osla
Gyllellvawr for the space of a fortnight and a month, and that the
asses and the burdens they carried might be given to the bards, to be
to them as the reward for their stay and that their verse might be
recompensed during the time of the truce. And thus it was settled.
