A poem attributed to this figure ends each stanza by mentioning a journey taken by three boatloads of men, of whom only seven return. This figure intimidates a king by making the men of his court sing a song that consists solely of a nonsense word. This figure once won a horse race by laying holly in front of his opponent’s horses, causing them to dance. This figure foiled a plan to give inspiration to Morfran by accidentally drinking three drops from a cauldron, after which he hid by transforming into a piece of wheat that was eaten by his master Cerridwen (“keh-RID-wen”). After this figure was found as a baby by Elphin, he changed his name from Gwion Bach to one meaning “radiant brow.” For 10 points, a Frank Lloyd Wright studio is named for what semi-legendary Welsh bard? ■END■
