Adjudication by John Good

Cadwyn ywr isdeitl ar Hanes a chadwyn ydy hi, gydar dolenni (cysylltiau) rhwng y geiriau, yn dibynnu ar ba eiriau yr ydych chin dewis eu clymu'i gilydd, yn newid yr ystyr(on). Yr oeddwn yn awgrymu cyfieithiadau am y rhestr, ond maen lan i chi wneud y gwahanol gadwyni!

A Chain is the subtitle of this poem and thats what it is. With the links (connections) between the words, depending on which words you choose to tie together, changing the meaning(s). I have suggested translations for the list but its up to you to make the different chains!
