|TitleInfo=<p>The poem is sometimes referred to as <em>Armes Prydein vechan</em> | |TitleInfo=<p>The poem is sometimes referred to as <em>Armes Prydein vechan</em> (or some variant) or ‘The small prophecy of Britain’, in contradistinction to <em>Armes Prydein vawr</em>, ‘The great prophecy of Britain’, a longer and better known prophetic poem in the same manuscript (Book of Taliesin). In his edition (<i>Four ancient books of Wales</i>), Skene supplied the heading <em>Armes Prydein bychan</em>. Ifor Williams suggested that the title heading for the longer poem implies the existence of another, shorter ‘prophecy of Britain’ and that it likely refers to the present poem. </p><p>The notion that <em>vawr</em> belongs with <em>Armes</em> rather than <em>Prydein</em> has been called into question. <br></p> | ||
