Celtic Fairy Tales, XXI. Beth Gellert., sentence 43

That the Gellert legend, before it was localised, was used as a moral apologue in Wales is shown by the fact that it occurs among the Fables of Cattwg, which are all of that character.

Who acts: fact, legend · What happens: localise, use, show, occur · To what, where: legend, Gellert legend, moral apologue, fact
