Huw Morgan: [Narrating] I think I fell in love with Bronwen then. Perhaps it is foolish to think a child could fall in love. But I am the child that was, and nobody knows how I felt, except only me.

Beth Morgan: I have come up here to tell you what I think of you all, because you are talking against my husband. You are a lot of cowards to go against him. He has done nothing against you and he never has and you know it well. How some of you, you smug-faced hypocrites, can sit in the same chapel with him I cannot tell. To say he is with the owners is not only nonsense but downright wickedness. There's one thing more I've got to say and it is this. If harm comes to my Gwilym, I will find out the men and I will kill them with my two hands. And this I will swear by God Almighty.

I should not have said it. Angharad: Why? Mr. Gruffydd: I have no right to speak to you so. [he leaves] Angharad: [stopping him] Mr. Gruffydd, if the right is mine to give, you have it.

Mr. Gruffydd: Who is for Gwilym Morgan and the others? Dai Bando: I, for one. He is the blood of my heart. Come, Cyfartha. Cyfartha: ....'Tis a coward I am. But I will hold your coat.

Huw Morgan: [Narrating] Everything I ever learnt as a small boy came from my father, and I never found anything he ever told me to be wrong or worthless. The simple lessons he taught me are as sharp and clear in my mind as if I had heard them only yesterday.
