Canwyll Y Cymry, or "The Welshman's Candle," is a seminal work of Welsh devotional literature by Rhys Prichard, also known as Vicar Prichard. This collection of didactic poems, originally published in the 17th century, offers spiritual guidance and moral instruction, reflecting the religious and social life of Wales during that period.
Prichard's verses, characterized by their simplicity and directness, address a wide range of topics, from the importance of prayer and scripture reading to the avoidance of sin and the pursuit of virtue. They provide a valuable window into the religious beliefs and practices of ordinary Welsh people, and continue to inspire readers with their timeless messages of faith, hope, and love.
This edition presents Prichard's enduring work for a new generation, ensuring that the light of 'Canwyll Y Cymry' continues to shine brightly.
