The Charlotte Guest text of the Mabinogi in English.

Guest was the first to publish the entire Mabinogi (1841, 1845), and she did so bilingually in Welsh and English, as part of a series she titled ‘The Mabinogion.’
The English text given here is from her later 1877 version which appeared in one volume without the Welsh source, but did include her copious notes which are also included here, as are the famous illustrations.

* THE FIRST BRANCH “Pwyll Prince of Dyfed.”
* THE SECOND BRANCH “Branwen the Daughter of Llyr.”
* THE THIRD BRANCH “Manawyddan the Son of Llyr.”
* THE FOURTH BRANCH “Math the Son of Mathonwy.”
