In 1575, or the year after, he receiv'd the Honour of Knighthood, became a very useful Man in his Country, and was at the Charge of such Herculean Works for the publick good, that no Man, in his Time, went beyond him, for his singular knowledge in the British Language and Antiquities, for his eminent Encouragement of Learning, and learned Men, and for his great Expence and indefatigable Industry, in collecting together several Ancient Manuscripts of Learning and Antiquity; all which, with other Books, were reduc'd into a well-order'd Library at St. Donats, to the great Credit and Renown of the Family. He writ a Welsh Grammar mostly in Latin.
