The eleven stories of The Mabinogion were assembled on paper in the 14th century but reach back much earlier into the oral traditions of Welsh storytelling. Mingling fantasy with tales of chivalry, they are closely linked to the Arthurian legends (Arthur himself appeared as a character) and summon up a world of mystery and magic that is still evoked by the Welsh landscape they so vividly describe.

Two works in one, and the first translations into Welsh of these two titles. The first book comprises Richard Baxter's 'The Saints' Everlasting Rest', here reading: 'The Eternal Resting Place of the Saints, or an essay on the Happy Condition of the Saints in their Enjoyment of God in the Heavens'. It was one of Baxter's major publications, written while he was recovering from illness, and remains a deeply comprehensive work of eschatology on the subject of life after death and the finer points of religion, with footnotes referring the reader to various passages from the Bible. The second work comprises twelve sermons by the Reverend W. Romaine. Richard Baxter was an English clergyman from Shropshire who had a long and extensive career as a theologian. In 1662, following the Act of Uniformity, Baxter was one of 2000 clergymen who refused to take the oath, and was therefore expelled from the Church of England in what later became known as 'the Great Ejection'. He thereby became an incredibly influential leader in the Nonconformist movement. William Romaine was ordained in 1734, and later became a pastor at St. Anne's, Blackfriars. Friends with William Grimshaw, Charles Wesley and George Whitefield, the present work takes as its focus the passages from the Song of Solomon, one of the most sexually explicit parts of the Bible. Both of the volumes have been translated into Welsh by Thomas Jones (1752-1845), an evangelical preacher, writer of seven works in Welsh, and translator of numerous titles by such writers as Berridge and Sir Richard Hill, the last of which was published in 1841. He is perhaps best known today for his efforts to publish ten thousand copies of the Bible in Welsh, and it was partly due to this that the British and Foreign Bible Society was later established.
