Three Counselling Knights Were in the Court of Arthur


Cynon the son of Clydno Eiddin, and Aron the son of Kynfarch ap Meirchion gul, and Llywarch Hen the son of Elidir Lydanwyn. And these three knights were the Counsellors of Arthur, and whatever dangers threatened him in any of his wars, they counselled him, so that none was able to overcome Arthur; and thus he conquered all the nations through three things which followed him; and these were, Good hope, and the consecrated arms which had been sent him, and the virtue of his warriors; and through these he came to wear twelve crowns upon his head, and he became Emperor of Rome.
