March 1st - Contest

Today is St David’s Day here in Wales Dydd Dewi Sant is what we say Images it doth portray Of national dress worn upon this day St David was a teacher and ascetic Founder of the monastery Glyn Rhosyn* Upon his death the fellow monks said these special words I have chosen Brothers be ye constant. The yoke which with single mind ye have taken bear ye to the end; and whatsoever ye have seen with me and heard, keep and fulfil." *White Roses Penned by Seren Roberts on March 1 2014 ( Dydd Dewi Sant – St David’s Day) Emotion - Historical
