"They set forth, and, however long the journey, they came at length to Dyved, and a feast was prepared for them against their coming to Narberth, which Rhiannon and Kicva had provided. Then began Manawyddan and Rhiannon to sit and to talk together, and from their discourse his mind and his thoughts became warmed towards her, and he thought in his heart he had never beheld any lady more fulfilled of grace and beauty than she. 'Pryderi,' said he, 'I will that it be as thou didst say.' 'What saying was that?' asked Rhiannon. 'Lady,' said Pryderi, 'I did offer thee as a wife to Manawyddan the son of Llyr.' 'By that will I gladly abide,' said Rhiannon. 'Right glad am I also,' said Manawyddan; 'may Heaven reward him who hath shown unto me friendship so perfect as this.'" - from The Mabinogion tr. by Lady Charlotte Guest (1877) #rhiannon #pryderi #manawyddan #feast #dyved #kicva #marriage
