Hoyle's Mouth Cave
Shakespeare's CYMBELINE

Select a forum:
Shakespeare's late romance CYMBELINE is set in ancient Britain in 33 BCE and part of the play is set in Wales, where Morgan lives in exile (under the name Belarius) with his sons Cadwal and Polydore, worshipping nature and rejecting society. My edition of the play says 'Belarius' cave is traditionally that at Hoyle's Mouth near Tenby.' (Arden Edition, Second Series, ed. J M Nosworthy, Act 3, Scene 3, p.83).
