Common
“The Wave” (Welsh: “I'r Don”) is a Welsh-language cywydd by the mid 14th-century poet Gruffudd Gryg. It is a llatai poem, in which an animal or object bears a message of love. An ocean wave is sent by the poet's beloved in Anglesey and reaches him while he returns by ship from a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela. It was likely written in or about the 1370s.
