Wisdom. The Eight Materials Of Man

*
"The Barddas of Iolo Morganwg, Vol. I.", ed. by J. Williams Ab Ithel, [1862],

The Eight Materials Of Man.

From the Book of Mr. Cobb of Cardiff.

From the earth, the flesh;

From the water, the blood;

From the air, the breath;

From the calas, the bones;

From the salt, the feeling;

From the sun, that is, the fire, his agitation;

From the truth, his understanding;

From the Holy Ghost, that is, God, his soul,

or life.
