About This Item

Carmarthen, in Priory-Street, near the Church:: J. Ross, 1772. 1st Edition . No Binding. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Uncommon, First edition, 1772 Disbound, [4], (v-viii), [1], 10-28 pp, small paper label to tp. It was published again a year later. (237*190 mm). (T222334). Evans also composed poems in Welsh, which are printed in the Dyddanwch Teuluaidd. In 1776 he published two volumes of Welsh sermons, translated from the works of John Tillotson and other English divines. In one notice of him it is stated that having passed a great part of his life in the cultivation of Welsh literature, "without being able to procure the smallest promotion in the church, his fortitude deserted him, and, to chase away his vexations, he fell into a habit of drinking, that at times produced symptoms of derangement." The fact is that Welsh prelates of the time were mostly Englishmen who knew no Welsh. Paul Panton, of Plâsgwyn in Anglesey, gave Evans at the end of his life an annuity, on condition that all Evans's manuscripts should at his death come to him. In consequence the whole collection of 100 volumes went to the Plâsgwyn library.
