948 VI. 2. CONSTRTTCTIO POETICA BRITANNICA.
Est quasi versus trium membrorum, quorum quodvis est syl-
labarum septem, exeepto fortasse secundo excedente eum nume-
rum una syllaba minoris accentus he praemissa.
Eadem constructio orationis poeticae deprehenditur in aliis
carminibus etiam recentioribus. E libro dicto nigro Caermarthensi
Hengurti asservato ad literas et lineas quaedam reddita sunt in ope-
ris inscripti cc The Myvyrian Archaiology" prima parteindeap. 575.
Ejus codicis posteriorem partem scriptam esse saeculo duodecimo
eaque multo vetustiorem videri partem priorem censet Lhwydius
(Archaeol. Brit. p. 225. 261 ; cf. Turner. Vindicat. p. 24 sq.). Equi-
dem tamen scriptionem speciminum oblatorum in opere memorato
aegre transtulerim ultra saeculum duodecimum, neque velim assen-
tire Oweno, qui codicem saeculo decimo ineunti attribuit (Gramm.
p. 7), immo alibi nono saeculo (in Lex. cambr. sub fine praef.).
E carmine in deum ibi obvio (Myvyr. Archaiol. p. 575) sumo
partis posterioris versus hos sine distinctione ita scriptos :
Arduireaue clev. yssi vn a dcu. yssi tri hep ev. hep haut y
