Ceir yn y Gymanfa gynrychiolaeth ragorol a hynod lawn o'r Iwerddon, a hyfryd yw eu gweled yn dod at ei gilyddl ymresymu. Dymunwn iddynt bob llwyddiant. » Cynnyg beiddgar ac athrylithgar o ei.ddo'r Prif-AVeinidog oedd ethol y Gymanfa, ac felly ofyn i'r Gwyddelod setlo eu hanealldwr- iaethau eu hunain, ac yna ofyn i'r Senedd Ymherodrol ddeddfu Senedd newydd iddynt.
