Twrch Trwyth

Welsh · numen · post roman · numen

AN ANIMAL INGESTED, and on the ground lane 18 stated when it ingested the two bulls of the Táin and rejected five named horses before them: he is not an animal identified by a name and an owner. He is a KING, transformed, who keeps three objects on his head, crosses the Irish Sea twice with an army after him, and drowns fighting. Half of the tasks in the tale are about him. The razor, comb and shears are objects and belong to an items pass.
