 worthy is the construction of the infinitive in one of the clauses 

 of the alternative : dewis, ae mi a agorwyf y porth itt, ae 

 menegi y'r neb &c., ' choose, whether I must open the door 

 for thee, or [whether thou art] to declare to,' 205, 14; but cf. 

 150, 25 dewis di ae kerdet ae na cherdych, ' choose either to 

 go or whether thou shouldst not go.' Cf. a similar construction
