Note 194 — Chapter X

Leland, p. 300. Cf. ibid. p. 140, where the maidens are called weasels, and ultimately marry stars. “Y Cymmrodor,” vol. iv. p. 201. In a tale rendered from the modern Greek by Von Hahn the name Swan-maiden is preserved in the title, though the plumage has disappeared from the text. Stress can hardly be laid upon this, as the title is no part of the tale. Von Hahn, vol. i. p. 131.
