Cornish: Dhyn ni ha dhe neb aspior ogas dhe Ripley, an effeyth a via an keth — dell hevelis an Veurthwesyon yn unsel a wrug maystri war an nos ow tewlhe, golowys dell veu gans an Loor voon, an sterennow, an golow warlergh an howlsedhes, ha'n golow rudhik a Vre Sen Jori ha'n kosow a Painshill.

English: Opening stage
Cornish: Rann dhalleth
English: The stage is set
Cornish: Desedhys yw an wariva
English: It contains what may be the earliest stage diagrams and is also the oldest complete text in the Cornish language.
Cornish: Yma synsys ynno golinyansow gwariva yw martesen an kottha hag yth yw an kottha tekst dien y’n yeth Kernewek maga ta.
English: The right-hand page shows the beginning of the second day of play, starting with a Latin stage direction:
Cornish: An folen a-barth dyghow a dhiskwa dalleth nessa dydh an gwari, ow talleth gans kevarwodhyans gwariva yn Latin:
English: Unlike the other scripts featured, the stage directions are in English rather than Latin.
Cornish: Dihaval orth an skrifedhow erel diskwedhys, yn Sowsnek yw an kevarwodhyansow gwariva yn le Latin.
English: The Creation of the World (spelled Creacon in the top line) is the only one of the manuscripts to include English stage directions (rather than Latin), perhaps reflecting the fact that it is the most recent document, written in 1611. It starts with a speech from 'The Father in Heaven', and the first stage direction notes 'The Father must be in a cloud and when he speakes of Heaven let the leaves open.' Images are courtesy of The Bodleian Libraries, University of Oxford - the whole manuscript is available to view on their website (f.1r).
Cornish: Gwrians an Bys yw an dornskrif unnik a gomprehend golinyansow gwariva yn Sowsnek (a-der Latin), a dhastewyn martesen y vos an skrifen an moyha a-dhiwedhes, skrifys yn 1611.

Cornish: An tressa golinyans gwariva y'n Ordinali a dhiskwa an restri rag an diwettha gwari. Unweyth arta yma An Nev orth y benn, ha tus po savleow erel a gomprehend an Dormentorys, Ifarn ha Pilat.
English: This stage diagram, which is quite badly damaged and possibly hastily written, also shows Heaven (Celum) at the top. Named characters and stations (in Latin) include the Torturers, Woman's son, Earl Globus, Emperor Constantine and the Bishop of Kernow.
Cornish: An golinyans ma a'n wariva, shyndys yn trog ha, martesen skrifys yn fysk, a dhiskwedh ynwedh Nev (Celum) orth y benn. Yn-mysk an persons ha'n leow henwys (yn Latin) yma an Dormentorys, mab Benyn, Yurl Globus, Emperour Kostyntyn, hag Epskop Kernow.

English: Stage One
Cornish: Kynsa Rann
English: Like the Cornish Ordinalia, it features circular stage diagrams.
Cornish: Kepar ha'n Ordinali Kernewek, ev a'n jeves golinyansow gwariva kylghek.
English: The Ordinalia’s unusual name comes from the plural of ‘Ordinal’, a book which contains the equivalent of stage directions for church services.
Cornish: Hanow anusadow an Ordinali a dheu dhyworth liesplek ‘Ordinal’, yw lyver a syns ynno traow yw haval orth kevarwodhyow gwariva rag servisyow eglos.
English: The Cornish Ordinalia manuscript, which consists of three plays, begins with the Latin note 'Here begins the Ordinale of the Origin of the world.' An Ordinale was a book of rules and regulations for conducting church services - a bit like stage directions. The first play starts with a speech in Cornish from 'Deus Pater', Latin for God the Father. Images courtesy of The Bodleian Libraries, University of Oxford - the whole manuscript is available to view on their website (f. 1r).
Cornish: Dornskrif an Ordinali Kernewek, a syns ynno tri gwari, a dhalleth gans an noten latinek, 'Omma y talleth Ordinali a Wrians an Bys.' Ordinali o lyver a rewlys rag dyghtya servisyow an eglos - tamm kepar ha kevarwodhyow gwariva. An kynsa gwari a dhalleth gans areth yn Kernewek gans 'Deus Pater', Latin rag an Tas Duw. Imajys gras dhe'n Lyvervaow Bodleian, Pennskol Resoghen - y hyllir mires orth an dornskrif dien y'ga gwiasva (f. 1r).
English: The staging, by Richard Southern, was designed to match the stage diagrams in the Ordinalia manuscript, with different stations for different characters and scenes around the edge of the playing place. Image, showing Day 3 staging, courtesy of the University of Bristol Theatre Collection
Cornish: Framweyth an gwariow, gans Richard Southern, a veu desinyes dhe omdhesedha gans golinyansow gwariva yn dornskrif an Ordinali, gans savleow dyffrans rag gwarioryon ha gwelyow dyffrans a-dro dhe amal plen an gwari. Imach, ow tiskwedhes gwarila Dydh 3, gras dhe Guntel Gwariva Pennskol Vrystow
English: This is the stage diagram for the second play, The Passion, and is also the one on display in the exhibition. As with the others, the names are written in Latin with Heaven at the top. Characters such as Pilate and Herod also feature.
Cornish: Hemm yw an golinyans gwariva rag an eyl gwari, An Passhyon, hag yw ynwedh an huni yw diskwedhys y'n diskwedhyans. Kepar dell yw gans an re erel, skrifys yw an henwyn yn Latin gans An Nev orth y benn. Tus kepar ha Pilat hag Erod yw kevys ynwedh.

Cornish: Gwel an Keynvor
English: Ocean
Cornish: Keynvor
English: Ocean Sunset
Cornish: Howlsedhes an Keynvor
English: The ocean is in flood, the sea is full, delightful is the home of ships.
Cornish: Yn lanwes yw an keynvor, leun yw an mor, hwegoll yw tre an gorholyon.
English: The culture of our modern Cornish community is born of the environment, the landscape and ocean around us, the movement of people and the history played out.
Cornish: Gonisogeth agan kemeneth kernewek arnowydh yw genys a’n kerghynnedh, an tirwel ha’n keynvor a-dro dhyn ni, gwayans a bobel ha’n istori displegys.
English: Ocean and beaches
Cornish: Keynvor ha trethow
English: Close inshore was a multitude of fishing smacks--English, Scotch, French, Dutch, and Swedish; steam launches from the Thames, yachts, electric boats; and beyond were ships of large burden, a multitude of filthy colliers, trim merchantmen, cattle ships, passenger boats, petroleum tanks, ocean tramps, an old white transport even, neat white and grey liners from Southampton and Hamburg; and along the blue coast across the Blackwater my brother could make out dimly a dense swarm of boats chaffering with the people on the beach, a swarm which also extended up the Blackwater almost to Maldon.
Cornish: Ogas dhe'n arvor yth esa routh a skathow-pyskessa — Sowsnek, Albanek, Frynkek, Iseldiryek, ha Swedenek; skathow ethen dhyworth an Thames, skathow-golya, skathow tredanek; ha dresta yth esa gorholyon brassa, bush a worholyon glow plos, gorholyon gwara kempen, gorholyon bughes, skathow tremenysi, tankow petrol, gwandrysi keynvor, treusporther gwynn koth, ha gorholyon tremenysi gwynn ha loos kempen a Southampton hag a Hamburg; hag a-hys an arvor glas dres an Dowr Du ow broder a allas gweles hes tew a skathow ow pargenya gans an dus war an treth, hes a ystynnas a-hys an Dowr Du bys dhe Maldon.

English: 'What's that?' cried a boatman, and 'Shut up, you fool!' said a man near me to a yelping dog.
Cornish: 'Pyth yw henna?' a grias skathyas, ha 'Taw taves, ty wocki!' yn-medh den ogas dhymm orth ki owth hartha.
English: I heard a dog howling, and that familiar sound it was that made me listen.
Cornish: My a glewas ki owth oulya, hag yth o an son aswonys na a wrug dhymm goslowes.
English: Here, moved by curiosity, I turned aside to find, among a tangle of red fronds, the warped and broken dog cart with the whitened bones of the horse scattered and gnawed.
Cornish: Omma, movyes gans ombrederans, my a dreylyas a-denewen dhe gavos, yn-mysk graghel a dhel rudh, an kert ki treylyes ha terrys gans eskern gwynnhes an margh keskerys ha kniys.

Cornish: Gwrewgh maystri effeythus war agas ki dhe vos sur ev dhe avoydya godhvewnans, bestes, mergh ha tus erel mar na vo gelwys.

Cornish: Yth esa ethen a wora y'n ayr der an prasow yr dres Pyrford, ha hweg ha teg o an keow gans routhow a ros gwyls.
English: It was the landlord of the Spotted Dog, whose conveyance I had taken.
Cornish: Ost an Ki Brith o, may hwrussen vy kemeres y gert dhyworto.
English: A lost retriever dog, with hanging tongue, circled dubiously round them, scared and wretched, and fled at my brother's threat.
Cornish: Ydhyngi kellys, gans taves ow kregi, a wrug tro y'ga herghyn, meur y dhout, ownek ha truan, ha fia gans godros ow broder.
English: It was early on the fifteenth day that I heard a curious, familiar sequence of sounds in the kitchen, and, listening, identified it as the snuffing and scratching of a dog.
Cornish: Myttinweyth a-varr an pymthegves dydh y klewis kevres a sonyow koynt hag aswonys y'n gegin, ha, wosa goslowes, y'n aswonis avel ki ow frikhwytha hag ow kravas.

Cornish: Agan kovadhow pluw ynwedh a syns ynna besydhyansow Du – y'n pols ma ni a breder bos an a-varra yn 1611, mes yma myns hag yw omjunys dhe'n Kenwerth Kethyon Treusatlantek.
English: Black histories

English: He wrote to his wife: 'the Black Slaves are expect to make some desturbance this Christmas.'
Cornish: Ev a skrifas dh'y wreg: 'yth yw desevys y hwra an Gethyon Dhu neb tervans an Nadelik ma.'
English: Discovering Black histories in Cornwall
Cornish: Diskudha Istoris Du yn Kernow
English: This matter-of-fact inventory of possessions made in 1651 by George Walrond for his wife Frances Coryton details the enslaved Black people that he owned on his family’s Barbados estate and includes their names and how much they were worth in sugar.
Cornish: Y vanyl an rol dhiflows ma a gerthow gwrys yn 1851 gans George Walrond rag y wreg Frances Coryton an dus Dhu kethhes a’n jevo ev war stat Barbados y deylu hag a syns ynni aga henwyn ha’ga thalvosogeth yn sugra.
English: Discovering Black histories in Cornwall
Cornish: Diskudha istoris Du yn Kernow
English: We always knew there were records of baptisms, marriages and burials of Black people in our parish registers.
Cornish: Ni a wodhya pupprys bos kovadhow a vesydhyow, demedhyansow hag ynkleudhyansow a dus Dhu yn kovlyvrow agan pluwow.
English: Our collections relating to Black communities (and other communities of colour) in Cornwall in more recent years are really sparse.
Cornish: Agan kuntellow ow tochya kemenethow Du (ha kemenethow erel a liw) yn Kernow dres diwettha bledhynnyow yw skant yn hwir.
English: 'Black spots'.
Cornish: 'Nammow du'.
English: Ah, a black cat's lucky.
Cornish: Aha. Kath dhu yw arwodh feusik.
English: I can take a picture in black and white -
Cornish: My a yll kavos ganso hevelepter yn gwynn ha du -
English: In spite of all that has happened since, I still remember that vigil very distinctly: the black and silent observatory, the shadowed lantern throwing a feeble glow upon the floor in the corner, the steady ticking of the clockwork of the telescope, the little slit in the roof--an oblong profundity with the stardust streaked across it.
Cornish: Spit dhe oll re hwarva a-dhia henna, hwath y porthav kov a'n gool na fest yn kler: an mirji du ha dison, an lugarn tewlhes ow tewlel golow gwann war an leur y'n gornel, an tys-ha-tas heb lett dhyworth klockweyth an pellweler, an aswa danow y'n to — islonk hirbedrek gans an sterbolter linennys a-dreus dhodho.
English: For a moment that circular cavity seemed perfectly black.
Cornish: An gowva gylghyek na a hevelis bos du poran pols.
English: It was the head of the shopman who had fallen in, but showing as a little black object against the hot western sun.
Cornish: Penn an gwas gwerthji re godhsa a-ji o, mes owth omdhiskwedhes avel tra dhu byghan erbynn howl tomm an howlsedhes.
English: Once a leash of thin black whips, like the arms of an octopus, flashed across the sunset and was immediately withdrawn, and afterwards a thin rod rose up, joint by joint, bearing at its apex a circular disk that spun with a wobbling motion.
Cornish: Unweyth lesh a hwyppys du tanow, kepar ha breghennow kollell-lesa, a lughesas a-dreus an howlsedhes hag omdennys veu distowgh, hag a-wosa gwelen voon a sevis, kevals wosa kevals, ow tegi war hy fenn plasen grenn a droyllyas yn unn drebuchya.
English: And then, within thirty yards of the pit, advancing from the direction of Horsell, I noted a little black knot of men, the foremost of whom was waving a white flag.
Cornish: Hag ena, le ages deg lath warn ugens dhyworth an pytt, owth avonsya dhyworth an tu a Horsell, my a verkyas bagas byghan du a wer, an kynsa anedha ow kwevya baner gwynn.
English: This smoke (or flame, perhaps, would be the better word for it) was so bright that the deep blue sky overhead and the hazy stretches of brown common towards Chertsey, set with black pine trees, seemed to darken abruptly as these puffs arose, and to remain the darker after their dispersal.
Cornish: Mar splann o an mog ma (po martesen flamm a via ger gwell ragdho) may hevelis an ebron las tewl a-ughov, ha'n splattow gell niwlek war-tu ha Chertsey, brithennek gans sabennow du, duhe a-dhesempis ha'n komolenigow ma ow sevel, ha pesya tewlla wosa aga heskar.
English: Forth-with the hissing and humming ceased, and the black, dome-like object sank slowly out of sight into the pit.
Cornish: A-dhesempis yth hedhis an tydhyans ha'n hwyrnans, ha'n dra dhu kepar ha krommdo a sedhas yn lent y'n pytt.
English: The little group of black specks with the flag of white had been swept out of existence, and the stillness of the evening, so it seemed to me, had scarcely been broken.
Cornish: An bush byghan a demigow du gans an baner gwynn re bia skubys mes a vosva, ha kalmynsi an gorthugher, dell hevelis dhymm, skant ny via terrys.
English: A sudden whirl of black smoke driving across the road hid him for a moment.
Cornish: Kommol a vog du hwythys a-dhesempis a-dreus an fordh a'n kudhas pols.
