Nos galan giaf
All Hallow E’en
On this eve, called by the Welsh Nos galan giaf ... the credulous go to hear and see goblins, but those who are not so fond of those unearthly beings, remain at home to enjoy “the flowing bowl,” and burn nuts to ascertain who shall die.
William Howells
from Cambrian Superstitions (1831)
