[3] Rhigyfarch recounts the tradition that the rapist was Sanctus, King of Ceredigion, who came upon Non while travelling through Dyfed (in South Wales).

He plotted to kill him upon birth, but on the day of her labour a great storm made it impossible for anyone to travel outdoors.

The pain was said to have been so intense that her fingers left marks as she grasped a rock and the stone itself split asunder in sympathy with her.

[4] Variations on her story state that: The place where Non gave birth to Saint David is now named Capel Non,[7] and is marked by the Chapel of St Non.

[12] Medieval glass fragments which remain above the altar may depict Non; there is a holy well nearby with a long tradition of bringing the insane to be immersed (one legend has them being thrown in backwards) in hope of a cure.

[14] St Non's feast day is given as 2 March by Mullins[11] and by the 18th century text of Browne Willis cited by Rees.
