Download or read book Poems and Songs in Scotch and English Classic Reprint written by Alex; H. Wingfield and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-20 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems and Songs, in Scotch and English Many of the pieces are written in the Lowland Scottish dialect, the author's mother tongue, which abounds with words having no exact equivalent in the English of the present day - words that, within a certain range of subjects, add much to the poet's resources of rhyme and expression. And such Eng lish as the poet uses is the plain, popular Saxon speech, unmixed with long words of learned deriva tion. If the public give no worse welcome to this collection than they have generally given to the author's pieces, as they appeared singly, he will con sider himself to have been favourably judged and well received.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems and Songs: Maistly Scotch The primary design in the composition of these "Poems and Songs" was an endeavor to link the present with the past - to recall the scenes of our early years to bring up, in imagination, the braw lads and the bonnie lasses that we forgathered with in the days of the lang syne, and attempt to describe, on this side of the Atlantic, the wimpling burns, the gowany braes, the bonnie glens, the broomy dells, and the heather-clad mountains of out native land: the land where Wallace and Bruce wielded the patriotic sword, and where Ramsay, Burns, Scott annahill, and many more sang the songs of love and liberty. The secondary object was to lay before my countrymen and the American people some specimens of the Scottish vernacular. At the present time I am sorry to say that a number of poets are in the habit of losing themselves in the clouds, and instead of writing to be understood, one would naturally imagine that they try their best to mystify and befog the reader. In contradistinction I have attempted to keep as near the earth as possible, and endeavored to clothe my sentences in plain and home-span attire.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems in English, Scotch, and Gaelic: On Various Subjects Although it be true that every work must possess sufficient excellence in itself to recommend it to the notice of the Public, yet there are cases, in which some thing must be known of the circumstances of the Author, before a fair and proper estimate of his merits can be formed. The production of a poor and illiterate man is read with indulgence, and is justly considered as a curiosity rather than a subject of rigid criticism.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scottish Song: A Selection of the Choicest Lyrics of Scotland The peculiar merits of the Songs of Scotland have so often been insisted upon, that little remains for me here, except to point out what my aim has been in adding one more to the already long list of printed collections. Hitherto compilers have studied to have quantity rather than quality; there is not a sufficient number of really excellent Scottish Songs, exclusive of Burns's, to fill more than a small volume; so that the wheat has in few cases been separated from the chaff.
