About this book
Celtic Folklore: Welsh and Manx (Volume 2 of 2) is by John Rhys. The chapter headed Triumphs of the Water-world says that more than once in the last chapter the subject of submersions and cataclysms was brought before the reader, and that it may be convenient to enumerate here the most remarkable cases. Lines of verse tell of a story heard on the cliffs of the West, that oft, through the breakers dividing, a city is seen.
The text describes a popular tune of unknown origin, whose usual words make the bells say un, dau, tri, pedwar, pump, chwech. The text lists places where a group is found: Anglesey, Harlech, Gwales or the Isle of Grasholm off Pembrokeshire, Aber Henvelen somewhere south of the Severn Sea, and Ireland.
