I’ve now completed a draft translation of the medieval “Saint’s Life” of St Mewan, a Welsh saint whose legend is mainly set in Brittany. St Mewan seems to belong to the early 7th century, but the Life dates to the 10-11th century. Only one manuscript contains the full text, which is preserved in a manuscript written after 1544 (!), so very late indeed.
Here are the files:
