Ello whei rei hanow dhe'n shap ma? Cûb ew.
Ma whegh enep pedrek dhodho, ha dewdhek min compes.
Solyd compes ew, solyd perfeth. Thew keniver tû egwal.
Pub min ew an keth hester, pub enep ew an keth mens.
Dhe'n filosofer Grek, Plato, pell dhe'n eur-ma,
an shap perfeth o dhe vos haval dhe'n element "Dor".
Nag üjy va ow qwaya heb wher.
Rag fra wrüga vy gwil cûb pecar'a ven (marbel)?
Nanj ew nebes bledhen my a gemeras radn en towl
neb a gesgorras art ha sciens. Me a wras nebes modelys.
Nag eus bes bohes dhebm whath.
Ma shapys erel ewedh.
Me a gavas an ymach ma war an Gwias. Cabm ew.
Nag ew cûb an shap compes rag Dowr,
ha nag ew Dor formys vel fygur gen pajar enep.

Can you give a name to this shape? It's a cube.
It has six square faces, and twelve straight edges.
It's a regular solid, a perfect solid. All the sides are equal.
Every edge is the same length, every face is the same area.
To the Greek philosopher, Plato, long ago,
it was the perfect shape to equate to the element "Earth".
It does not move easily.
Why did I make a cube like a stone (marble)?
Several years ago I took part in a project
that combined art and science. I made several models.
I only have a few left.
I found this image on the Internet. It is wrong!
A cube is not the correct shape for Water,
and Earth is not formed like a figure with four faces (tetrahedron).
