The Marilwyd is a Welsh custom the origins of which are lost in the mists of time, but which invoke feelings of mystery, where the otherworldly encroaches on our world. Horses, particularly white horses, have an otherworldly and psychopompic role in myths and folk traditions around the world, and are associated with various pagan gods and goddesses. This book explores folklore, myth and ancient pagan religions connected with the worship of horses, as well as horses as otherworldly spirits. It also includes a full reprint of the poem The Ballad of the Marilwyd by Vernon Watkins as well as various versions of the Marilwyd carol, the Padstow May Day carols and other folk songs connected with folk customs concerning horses.
