On one of the fly-leaves is a stanza in 'triban' metre to the curate of Llan Gwstennyn. The sermons are in both English and Welsh.
Material FeaturesThe volume contains marks of ownership from the 18th century, including "Edd Pughe 1779," and "The Rev. Thos. Rowland (?) from John Jennings." The sermons are in three different 17th-century hands, all clear. The sermons in Welsh, primarily in one hand, are on unruled folios without margins, and run to the very edges of the cropped pages. Some of them are written in reverse.
