Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Visions of the Sleeping Bard The latter part of his life is as completely obscure as the earlier; he lapsed again into the silence from which he had only just emerged with such Signal success, and confined his efforts as a Christian worker within the narrow limits of his own native parts, exercising, doubtlessly, an influence for good upon his immediate neighbourhood through force of character and noble personality, as upon his fellow-countrymen at large by means of his published works. His wife died in 1720, and his son, Ellis, in 1732; two years later he himself died, and was buried under the communion table in Llanfair church, on the 17th day of July, There is no marble or perennial brass to mark the last resting-place of the Bard, nor was there, until recent years, any memorial of him in either of his parish churches, when the late Rev. John \vynne set up a fine stained-glass Window at Llanfair church in memory of his illustrious ancestor. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
