Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poems and Ballads of Sir Walter Scott, Vol. 4 of 6 Sir Walter Scott commenced the composition of Rokeby at Abbotsford, on the 15th of September, 1812, and finished it on the last day of the following December. The reader may be interested in the following extracts from his letters to his friend and printer, Mr. Ballantyne: "Abbotsford, 28th Oct., 1812. "Dear James, - I send you to-day better than the third sheet of Canto II., and I trust to send the other three sheets in the course of the week. I expect that you will have three cantos complete before I quit this place - on the 11th of November. Surely, if you do your part, the poem may be out by Christmas; but you must not dawdle over your typographical scruples. I have too much respect for the public to neglect anything in my poem to attract their attention; and you misunderstood me much, when you supposed that I designed any new experiments in point of composition. I only meant to say, that knowing well that the said public will never be pleased with exactly the same thing the second time, I saw the necessity of giving a certain degree of novelty, by throwing the interest more on character than in my former poems, without certainly meaning to exclude either incident or description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Sir Walter Scott, Vol. 6: With a Memoir of the Author The reader is not to regard the ballad as of genuine and unmixed antiquity, though some stanzas are current upon the Border, in a cor rupted state. They have been eked and joined together, in the rude and ludicrous manner of the original; but as it must be considered as, on the whole, a modern ballad, it is transferred to this department of the work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poems and Plays of Sir Walter Scott, Vol. 1 of 2 The critic who would praise without reserve the poetry of Scott, has not only all the other critics against him, but has to reckon with Sir Walter himself. He frankly stated that he never cared much for his own poetry: he did not think it of sufficient excellence for his children to read, but regarded it as a "light horse" kind of rhyme, fit for young men fond of adventure and of the open air. In his address to William Erskine, his friend and adviser, in the Preface to the Third Canto of Marmion, he speaks as all honest poets must speak to all such friends. These are continually asking a man not to be himself, not to do what heaven has given him the power of doing, but to attempt something else. Erskine wanted Scott to study the classics. "Vos exemplaria Graeca Nocturna versate manu, versate diurna." He suggested topics: "Brunswick's venerable hearse," the "Red Cross Knight," or a revival of Tragedy, which Sir Walter, as enthusiastic for his friends' work as indifferent to his own, thought had been sufficiently revived by Miss Joanna Baillie. He himself was content to - "Ape the measure wild Of tales that charmed me as a child." He describes his early boyhood, the haunted towers he knew - "Methought that still with tramp and clang The gateway's broken arches rang... And ever, by the winter hearth. Old tales I heard of woe and mirth, Of lovers' sleights, of ladies' charms, Of witches' spells, and warriors' arms.' Scottish memories, all the hot-blooded past of the race, these were, these were to be, his topics. His manner was, and was to be, what heaven made it - "Though wild as cloud, ' as stream, as gale, Flow forth, flow unrestrained, my tale."
