The Welsh are specially rich in Pastoral Music, which is graceful, melodious, and unaffected. It is chiefly written for the voice, and the subject of the words is generally taken from the beauties of Nature, with an admixture of Love. The collection is so numerous, that it is no easy matter to make a selection; however, the following specimens will serve to show the natural beauty of these melodies:—
Codiad yr Hedydd. (The Rising of the Lark.)
