which,Orogen Iddon a

castle, were given himout of compassion by his n ephew,

Prin ce Llywelyn ab Iorwerth. In 12 8] Edward I,Kin g of En glan d, gave this castle a n d the lordship ofChirk to Roger Mortimer as before related (vol. 1, p.

17 8) an d , on gettin g possession , Roger Mortimer builtthe presen t castle, on the site of Castell Orogen as is

married Maude, the eldest daughter a n d co-heiress ofWilliamde Braose, Lord of Breckn ock, with whomhe

had the Lordship of Ra dn or, an d other fair possession s inEn glan d an d Wales.

This Roger was with the kin g in Norman dy , a n d therefore had a special discharge of the scutage, then levied ,

by reason of that ex pedition .

About this time, Rhys, Prin ce of South Wales, havin gra ised a n army , an d taken the town of Caermardden , as

ab Ticho Tyrode ab Gwilfyw ab Marchudd ab Bra n ab

Pill ab Cervyr ab Milifron ab Gwron ab Cun edda Wledig,who is sa id to have been Kin g of Gwyn edd in 330, thatis, durin g the time that the provin ce of Britan n ia Secun da , of which Gwy n edd or Ven edocia was a portion ,

formed a pa rtof the Roma n Empire but itwas n ot till

a fter the depa rture of the Roma n legi on s fromBr ita in in4 4 8, that a n y pa rt of this provin ce fell un der the

governmen t of the Br iton s. At a n y rate, we kn ow thatthe a n cestors of the presen t n obility an d gen try of British descen t had n ot a rrived in Powys- la n d before 4 4 8.

F or Vortiger n , the common a n cestor of the kin gs a n d

prin ces of Powys , a n d the tribe of Tudor Trevor , diedin that yea r, a n d his descen da n t, Cadell Deyrn llwg,

fromwhomboth lin es descen d , did n ot become Kin g ofPowys till themiddle Of the six th cen tury . H e camemostprobably fromthose pa rts of Lloegr n owkn own as

the coun ties of Gloucester , Hereford, a n d Wilts. The

royal tribe of E lysta n G lodrudd on ly con quered the

coun try between the Wye a n d the Severn in the ten th

cen tury . This tribe also are sa id to have come origi na lly from Gloucestershire. Both Cadell Deyrn llwga n d E lysta n G lodrudd appear to have been driven fromtheir origin al settlemen ts by the con quests of the E n glish, en d then to have marched to the n orth-west, a n dcon quered the origin a l in habita n ts. I therefore thin kthat -it is very improbable that the prin ces of Gwy n eddcould have had a n y power whatever before the Roma nlegion s left Brita in or thatCun edda Wledig, who camefromScotla n d or Cumberla n d, could have con quered theGwyddelod , the an cien t in habitan ts of Gwyn edd , a n d a ll

Powys- la n d a n d Maelien ydd , a n d imposed the n amesof his son s on the various districts. Our historia n saffirmthathe did so as ea rly as the yea r 330, atwhichtime Con sta n tin e, the first Of the emperors who becamea Christia n , was reign in g, havin g succeeded the EmperorDiocletia n in 305 .

TH E CHURCH OF LLANFIH ANGELYM MLODWEL.

This church is dedicated to St. Michael, on e of thea rcha n gels. St. John the Divin e gives us the followin ga ccoun t of this person age in the twelfth chapter ofRevela tion s

An d there appea red a great won der in heaven a

woma n clothed with the sun , a n d the moon un der her feet, a n dupon her head a crown of twelve sta rs : a n d she bein g withchild cried , tr ava ilin g in birth, a n d pa in ed to be delivered.

An d there appeared a n other won der in heaven ; a n d behold a grea t red dragon havin g seven heads a n d ten horn s, a n d

seven c rown s upon his heads . A n d his ta il d rew the third pa r t

of the sta rs of heaven , a n d did ca st themto the ea rth a n d thedragon stood before thewoma n which wa s ready to be delivered,for to devour her child a s soon a s itwa s born . A n d she broughtforth a ma n child , who was to rule a ll n ation s with a rod of

iron a n d her child wa s caught up un to God , a n d to his

thron e.

“ An d there wa s wa r in heaven : Michael a n d his a n gels

fought aga in st the dr agon ; a n d the dragon fought a n d his

a n gels, a n d preva iled n ot; n either was their place foun d a n ymore in heaven a n d the great dr agon wa s ca stout, that oldserpen t ca lled the Devil, an d Sata n ,

which deceiveth the wholeworld ; he wa s ca st out . in to the ea rth, a n d his a n gels wereca st outwith him.

An d I hea rd a loud voice sayin g in heaven , Now is comesalvation , a n d stren gth, a n d the kin gdomof our God , a n d the

power of his Christ ; for the a ccuser of our brethren is cast

down , which a ccused thembefore God day a n d n ight.”

It appea rs, therefore, fromthis accoun t, that St. Johnthe Divin e witn essed the great battle fought betweenSt. Michael a n d the dragon , for he ex pressly states thatwhen the dragon was va n quished, he hea rd a loud voicesay in g in heaven ,

“Now is come salvation ”, etc . The

date when this a ccoun t was written is stated in the

ma rgin of the En glish version of the New Testamen ttobe A .D . 9 6 .

We have a n accoun tof this battle given in theCha ldwa nAccoun tq

”Gen esis, by the late George Smith, pp . 9 1, 9 2 .

TH E CH URCH or LLANFIHANGEL. 205

The dragon ,which,

in the Cha ldea n accoun t of the Crea

tion , leads ma n to sin , is the creature of T iamat, the livin gp rin ciple of the sea a n d of chaos , a n d he is a n embodimen t ofthe spiritof chaos or d isorder whichwa s opposed to the deitiesat the c reation of the wor ld.

”T iamat decla red wa r aga in st

the gods, a n d atta cked the just Prin ce of the gods, Meroda ch.

The gods have fa shion ed for thema sword an d a bow to fight

the d ragon Tiamat, a n d An a (the supreme God of H eaven )rocla ims great hon our to a n y of the gods who will en gage inbattle with the dragon . Bel (theLord) Meroda ch volun teers

a n d goes forth a rmed with these weapon s to fight the dr agon .

T iamat is en couraged by on e of the gods who ha s become herhusba n d, a n d meets Meroda ch in ba ttle. The descr iption of

’

At this crisis of his dreamthe sleeper awoke, feverish a n d

ill ; a n d whether fromthe effectof the dream, or of his pre

cedin g orgies, hewas so unwell a s to be obliged to keep his bedfor severa l days, dur in g which period he ha d time for ma n yser ious reflection s, which termin ated in a resolution to aba n don

Now this story is n o fiction ; the circumsta n ce happen ed as here related. An accoun t of itwas publishedat the time, but the copies were bought by the family .

Two or three, however, were preserved, an d the n arrativehas been reprin ted.

This dreamis eviden tly of a symbolical character , a n dthe in terpretation seems to be, that the evil passion s a n dcrimin a l pursuits which have been in dulged in here,become our curse hereafter. (See the accoun t of the

Old Ken tMa n or House”, vol . ii.)“ I do n otmea n to

imply says Mrs. Crowe, that the ordin a ry amusemen ts of life a re crimin al ; fa r from it. There is n o

ha rmin da n cin g, n or in playin g at 100, either ; but if

people make these thin gs the whole busin ess of theirlives, a n d thin k of n othin g else, cultivatin g n o highertastes, or formin or n o higher aspiration s, what sort of

preparation a re they makin g for a n other world ? I ca nhardly imagin e that a n ybody would wish to be doin gthese thin gs to all etern ity , themore especially that it ismost frequen tly en nui that drives their votaries in toex cesses even here butif they have allowed their min dsto be en tirely absorbed in such frivolities a n d trivia lities,surely they can n otex pectthatGod will, by amiracle, sudden ly obliterate these tastes an d in clin ation s, a n d in spirethemwith others better suited to their n ew con dition .

Itwas their busin ess to do that for themselves whilsthere ; a n d such a process of preparation is n ot in the

slightest degree in con sisten twith the en joymen t of allma rin er of harmless pleasures, on the con trary , it gives

the greatest zest to them: for a in which there isn othin g ser ious, in which all is play a n d diversion , is,

beyon d al l doubt, n ex t to a life of active, perseverin gwickedn ess, the saddest thin g un der the sun . Butlet everybody remember , that we see in n ature n o

violen t tra n sition s, everythin g adva n ces by almost insen sible steps, atleast, everythin g that is to en dure ; a n d,therefore, to ex pectthat because they have quitted theirfleshly bodies, which they always kn ew were but a tempora ry appurten an ce, doomed to perish a n d decay , theythemselves a re to un dergo a sudden a n d miraculouscon version a n d purification ,

which is to elevate themin tofitcompa n ion s for the a n gels, a n d the just on es who havepassed away , is surely on e of the most in con sisten t,un reason able, a n d pern icious errors thatma n kin d ever

The Greeks a n d Roma n s believed in a tripa rtite

kin gdom of the dead . There were the Elysia n fields,a region in which a certa in amoun t of happin ess wasen j oyed , an d Ta rta rus, the place of pun ishmen t for thewicked , each of which was comparatively but thin lyin habited. Buttherewas a lso a mid- region or Purgatory ,peopled with in numerable hosts of wa n der in g a n dmournful spirits, who, a lthough un dergoin g n o tormen ts, are

represen ted as in cessa n tly bewa ilin g their con dition ,

pin in g for the life they on ce en j oyed in the body , lon gin g a fter the thin gs of the ea rth, a n d occupyin g themselves with the same pursuits a n d objects as had for

In the first volume of thiswork I have given the storyof Thespesius, who, havin g fallen in to a tra n ce, his spir itwen t to the upper region s. H e states that the souls ofthe dead, on quittin g the body, appeared like a bubbleof light, out of which a huma n formwas quickly evolved.

it is a vulgar n otion to imagin e thatHeaven a n d Hell

When we leave the body , weca rry themwith us, as the tree fa lls, SO it sha ll lie’ .The soul which here has wallowed i n wickedn ess or beensun k in sen suality, will n ot he sudden ly purified by thedeath of the body itsmora l con dition rema in s what itsea rthly soj ourn has tra in ed it to, but itsmea n s of in dulgin g its propen sities a re lost.

if it has so boun d itself to the body that it has kn ownn o happin ess, but that to which the body min istered, itwill be in capable of happin ess when deprived of thatmea n s of en j oymen t. Here we see at on ce what a

a n d a vague lon gin g for somethin g better, which the nutr a in ed soul that n ever lifted itself fromthe earth kn owsn ot how to seek ; whilst ma lign an t passion s a n d nuquen chable desires would con stitute the appropriate hellof the wicked ; for we must remember , that although a

spirit is in depen den t of those physical laws which a re

the con dition s of matter,the mora l law,

which is in cleStructible, belon gs peculiarly to it, that is, to the spirit,a n d is in sepa rable fromit.

This con dition of the wicked , we are led to hope, isn ot fin al, n or does it seemcon sisten twith the love an d

Near Bettws Coed is Rhaiadr Ewyn awl, the FoamingCascade, but n ow called , in the modern guide-books,Rhaiadr y Wen n ol, or the Fall of the Swallow. There isa n old tradition that, as a pen an ce for his persecution ofthe Roma n Catholics, the spirit of Sir John Wyn n wasdoomed to rema in in the depths of the pool, un der thisfa ll, there to be purged a n d purified fromhisma n y sin s.

O n the right ban k of the Llugwy, in the parish ofCapel Curig, belowthe steppin g

- ston es, are the ruin s ofa n old mon astery , on a meadow belon gin g to a fa rmca lled Bryn Gyfeiliau. It was levelled down to the

groun d by Sir John Wyn n ,who always made use

of every mea n s in his power to persecute an d er a di

cate the Roman Catholics, root a n d bra n ch,out of the

coun tr y . For doin g this, as before stated , hewas doomedto en dure a pun ishmen t at the bottom of Rha iadr

Ewyn awl, by a priest. Sir John ’

s n ame was writtenby himon a piece of parchmen t, dropped in to a bottle

used to hold the eucha ristic win e at thismon astery . The

bottle, with its con ten ts, was plun ged in to the deep po’ol

un dern eath the fa lls. This priest, who came fromYspytty Ieua n , habitua lly ca lled his numerous followersto the edge of the falls, when the freshetwould be high,to listen to the wa ilin g a n d moa n in g voice of the sin n er

in the abyss below.

In the fifteen th cen tury , there was a relative of theGwydir family , n amed David ab Jen kin , a n oted wa rr ior a n d famous outlaw. H e spen tmost of his time at

Itwas burn t down in the year 14 6 8, by a n a rmy ledby the Earl of Pembroke, who was authorised by Edwardthe Fourth to devastate this coun try in reven ge for somedeeds of Dafydd ab Sien cyn , as before men tion ed. Sir

of this a rmy ,

“that it a ccomplished its mission so well

PURGATORY .

PURGATORY.

(Con tinued frompage

The doctri n e Of evolution has familia rised us with the con

ception Of a perpetua l progress a s the law Of cosmic developmen t : a n d this has given rise to the idea thatthis life, a n d for

aughtwe can tell, the n ex t a lso, may bemerely stages of ourca reer . A p r ior i a rgumen ts must a lways be taken with ex

treme caution , butthere is a n a p r ior i Objection to the orthodox

scheme, whichmay be given for wha t it is worth. The n otion

Of a ca reer d ivided in to a few decades for the first pa rt, a n detern ity for the secon d , is, to say the lea st, un symmetrica l.Moreover , it must have sometimes occur red even to the

orthodox that the a lleged tra n sition fromour presen t sta te of

imperfection to the absolute perfection of heaven is rather too

violen t. The Roma n Catholic i n stitution of Purgatory is a n

a ttemptto bridge this gap, but the con ception in itself is too

crude to be of much va lue. Natur a n ihi lfa citp er sa ltwmis adoctrin e which is n ow un iversa lly recogn ised in physica l

sc ien ce, a n d it is hard to avoid ex ten din g its applica tion to ourdreams of a hereafter . The whole course Of scien tific ex

per ien ce shows the process Of evolution to be gradua l, a n d a n

a rbitra ry ex clusion Of huma n ity fromthe operation Of this lawis un wa rra n ted by an y direct eviden ce, is repugn a n ttoma n yOf our stron gest in stin cts, a n d is opposed to a ll the aua lo ieswhich sc ien ce suggests. Now if this be so, if this gradua levolution towa rds perfection be accepted , it is clea r that this

world Of Ours n eeds n ot even be the first stage of the process,so fa r as we a re con cern ed, a n d it is a lmost impossible that itshould be the la st, or rather the la stbut on e.

“ An d here I thin k that a ray Of light breaks in upon theObscurity Of the question . I believemyself thatthose philosophers a re r ightwho suppose our developmen t after death to

be towa rds a con tinua lly in creasin g degree of spir ituality . In

this ca se it seems probable that in ea ch stage of our ca reer a

certa in min imuma dva n ce in thatdirection must be attain ed,in order to en able us to en ter upon the n ex t stage with compar ative ea se a n d comfort. A homely illustration may makemy mea n in g clea rer . When a n athlete determin es to en gage

un con sc ieutious , he may in dulge in un lawful rela x ation s of

these.

But there is a n a ccurately proportion ed retr ibution before

him. Just'ao fa r a s his physica l efi cien cy has been impa ired

by these secret ex cesses, so will he sn fi'

er fromphysical distressin the hour of con test. Similar ly, just so fa r a s we n eglect to

prepa re our selves in this life for themore spir itua l sur roun din gsof the n ex t, to thatex ten t our la ck of spir itua l con dition

, so

to speak , will be a n un fa ilin g source of distress un til thedeficien cy is made good. Still applyin g the evolution ist ex

pla n ation , we must con clude that supreme happin ess will beatta in ed when the in dividua l becomes in complete ha rmon ywith his en vironmen t; buttill this poin t he reached, hemustn eeds be subject to all the discomforts which a wa n t of suchha rmon y en ta ils.

“ Stripped then of a ll superstition s a n d other impropera ccretion s, H eaven may be rega rded a s the n ame for that com

plete harmon y with our en vironmen t for which we a re n ot

orbidden to hope, a n d H ell a s the n ame for those discomfortswhich must in evitably befall a n orga n ismsurroun ded by a n

en vironmen t of higher developmen t tha n its own . Rightlyrega rded then , heaven is n o specia l pa radise of mira culousc reation reserved for the objects of a divin e preferen ce or the

a dheren ts of a pa rticula r theologica l c reed ; but it is the

n atura l goa l ofprogress, the supreme accomplishmen tof the

possibilities of uma n n ature, a n d within the rea ch of a ll

ma n kin d. So, a lso, hell is n ot a pla ce of pun ishmen t, devisedfor ofi

'

en ders aga in st a code of divin e ordin a n ces ; still less is

it a torture-house where divin e vin dictiven ess may en joy theagon ies of some misguided heretics. It ca n be merely the

sumtota l of evils which a re in ex orably atta ched to the imperfeet a daptation of a n orga n ismto its en vironmen t, butwhicha remora lly colourless, a n d a ltogether lack either the cha ra cter

IPRE DE STINATION.

I

I omitted in Vol. iii , p. 316, to give the followin g dogmas of the

An glican Church with those I have given of the Chur ch of Scotlan d.

They are to be foun d in the Book of Common Prayer , accordin g to

the use of the Church of E n glan d .

In Article XI of that religion we are told that We are accoun tedr ighteous before God on ly for the merit of our Lord a n d SaviourJesus Chr ist by fa ith, an d n ot for our own works or deservin gs.

”In

Article XVII, it is stated that Predestin ation to life is the ever

lastin g purpose of God , wher eby (before the foun dation s of the worldwere la id) he hath con sta n tly decreed by his coun sel secrettous, todeliver fromcurse an d damn ation those whomhe hath chosen in

Christ out of ma n kin d, an d to br in g themby Christ to everlastin gsa lvation , as vesselsmade to hon our . (Compare this with the West

min ster Con fession of Fa ith, at pp. 315 -316 in Vol. iii. ) TheXVIIIthArticle decla res that They a lso are to be held seemed thatpresumeto say , That every man sha ll be saved by the lawor sectwhich he

professeth, so that he bediligen t to frame his life accord in g to that

lawan d the lightof Nature. For H oly Scripture doth set outun tous on ly the n ame of Jesus Chr istwhereby men must be saved

”

(seealso Deuteron omy , chap. x iii , vv. 6

,7 , 8, 9 , 10; a n d the Athan as ia n

Creed , which tells us what the Catholic Faith is, which fa ith”, itdeclares

, ex cept everyon e do keep whole a n d un defiled : withoutdoubthe shall perish everlastiugly ,

”an d “which ex cept a man believe

fa ithfully he ca n n ot be saved . Glory be to the Father , a n d to the

Son , a n d to the H oly Ghost. I have given a fewex tracts fromthe

Westmin ster Con fession of Fa ith, in Vol. iii, p . 315 , an d fromthis

an d the An glican Creed , which in cludes the creed of St. Athan asius,we lear n who they a re, whom,

befor e the foun dation s of the worldwere la id ,

” Jehovah, the first person , or God the Father of the

Chr istian Trin ity, had in H is secret coun sel decreed to deliver fromsin an d damn ation , as vessels made to hon our , an d others he fore

orda in ed to everlastin g death.

”The reader is requested to compare

all this with what I have stated in Vol. i , p. 302, where God , withwhomis n o variablen ess, or shadowof tur n in g, has declared thatmenshall be judged by their works, an d if they have don e good works,they will be saved by the mer its of those works, an d n ot by the

merits of an y other bein g, or their fa ith in the Christia n creeds.
