Many words in English had parallel forms – with a long vowel (usually the original form) and with a short vowel (the variant form). Thus POKE / POCK, SHEEP / SHIP, (North America) CREEK / CRICK, SHAME / SHAM (and SHOM, from which Welsh siom = disappointment)

Dydd Iau, Mawrth 25ain, gadewais Cilfowyr am Aberteifi. Cerddais trwy Llechryd er mwyn cael golwg ar y wlad. Wrth fyned i mewn i bentref Llechryd croesir afon Teifi, felly gadawn Sir Benfro yn y fan hon, ac awn i fewn i Sir Aberteifi ond wedi cyrhaedd pen uchaf y pentref wrth edrych yn ol tua Chilfowyr, canfyddir golygfeydd o'r fath mwyaf prydferth. Tua hanner y ffordd rhwng Lechryd ac Aberteifi y mae Mynachdy mawr gan y Pabyddion, yr hwn a adnabyddid gynt wrth yr enw ‘Noyadd Wilym,' ond a adnabyddir yn awr wrth yr enw Santa Maria, ac a werthwyd gan Morgan Richardson, mab Canon Richardson. Y mae yn un o'r llanerchau prydferthaf yn Nghymru. Pan yn siarad ag un o'r Mynachod wrth y glwyd teimlwn fy ngwaed yn berwi o eiddigedd wrth feddwl fod y fath balas a'r fath diroedd yn Nghymru yn meddiant nyfath o'r fath. A yw egwyddorion y Pabyddion i ymledu drwy Gymru etto? yn sicr y mae perygl. Cyrhaeddais Aberteifi tua chanol dydd, a chefais bob croesaw gan y Parch Mr Williams a'i deulu caredig. Y mae hanes eglwys Bethania yn wybyddus i ddarllenwyr y SEREN; (Seren Cymru / 23 Ebrill 1909)

Thursday, March 25, I left Cilfowyr for Cardigan. I walked through Llechryd in order to get a view the country. Going into the village of Llechryd one crosses the river Teifi, so we leave Pembrokeshire at this point, and we go into Cardiganshire but on reaching the upper end of the village looking back towards Cilfowyr, one sees scenes of the grestest beauty. About halfway between Llechryd and Cardigan the Catholics have a large Monastery, which was known formerly by the name of 'Noyadd Wilym,' but is now known by the name of Santa Maria, and was sold by Morgan Richardson, the son of Canon Richardson. It is one of the most beautiful spots in Wales. When talking to one of Monks at the gate I felt my blood boiling with envy at the thought that such a palace and such lands in Wales are in the possession of such rascals. Will the principles of the Catholics spread throughout Wales again? the danger certainly exists. I reached Cardigan about noon, and was warmly welcomed (‘and got every welcome’) from the Rev. Mr. Williams and his kind family. The history of Bethania church is known to the readers of Seren Cymru;

Tarian y Gweithiwr. 2 Mehefin 1898. “Ble i chi wedi bod, Obadia, hyd yr amser hyn yn meddwi ac yn lolan ar hyd tafarne.

Pwy sy gyda chi, rywun meddw fel ych hunan, fi gynta.”

Tarian y Gweithiwr (the shield of the workman). 2 June 1898. “Where have you been, Obadia, until now getting drunk and hanging around in alehouses. Don’t you think you could spend your time better in this house instead of in the company of lazy oafs like yourself. God help us, do you think that I haven’t got better things to do than wait down here in the early hours (‘some time of the night’) to keep the door open for drunken out-of-work louts like you eh? Who’s with you, someone drunk like yourself, I bet.”
