Robert or Dr. John Davies for analysing the structure of language, adopted the grammatical framework of Latin and forced the Welsh language into that. In the section on prosody, whole passages have been taken word for word from the bardic treatises, and time and again it

The date of his birth is not known, but documents preserved in Milan show him to have been born circa 1527 to one Robert and to domina Catherina de Griffis: Catrin ferch Gruffudd, a woman of gentry stock.
