Notes
This is a woman's viewpoint of war--the side not seen in the bards' songs of the glories of battle. Owain Glyn Dwr (Glendower) was the Welsh Prince who, in the closing years of the fourteenth century, took most of Wales back from the English. Unfortunately for the Welsh people, the tide soon turned and by 1415 Glyn Dwr was in hiding and the English had taken back their former territories.

D:On "A Breeze Through the CONduit" tape W:'Tis now, in the warm tender green time of spring W:I think of my brother, the songs he did sing. W:With crwth or with harp by some cold mountain stream W:Amidst the pale flowers with his music he'd dream. W:He'd sing of his love for the good things he knew-- W:Fair women, good mead, and companions so true. W:Chorus: W:He went off to fight in the late snows of spring W:For Glyn Dwr, our Prince, 'gainst the troops of the King. W:With a song on his lips he did fight--and was killed. W:And the music within him forever was stilled.
