216 ANCIENT GAELIC BARDS
Hath moved thee and inspired thee now, Llhuyd
To do thy work with energy and art ;
And make His own great name adored and praised
In every region by the Gael possessed.
So neither let, nor distant be the day,
When shall thy name in every heart be writ,
And every memory, in lettered gold.
And, now, a blessing, and adieu from me, —
From heart, and hand, and tongue attend on thee.
