Excerpt: ... or marked impatience, But will affect for weal or woe The men of coming generations. Be careful, then, of idle words, And simple deeds of thoughtless folly--They dwarf our own aspiring souls, And tinge all round with thoughts unholy. Come, then, while through Time's vale we fly, Let high aspiring thoughts engage us; Their very nature is to bless, And will delight through endless ages. The following is said to be by ANDREW MARSHALL, Of Alva, and will give a good idea of his style, and of the ease with which he weaves his thoughts into rhyme: --A DomestiG Loss. I've lost my little May at last, She perished in the Spring, When earliest flowers began to bud, And earliest birds to sing. I laid her in her rural grave--A green and still retreat--A marble tablet at her head, And violets at her feet. I would that she were back again In all her childish bloom; My joy and hope have followed her, My heart is in her tomb. I know that she has gone from me, I know that she has fled; I miss her everywhere, and yet I cannot think her dead. I wake the children up at morn, And breathe a simple prayer, And draw them round the morning meal, But one is wanting there. I see a little chair apart--A little pinafore, And memory fills the vacancy, As time will nevermore. I sit within my quiet room, And think and think for hours, And miss the little maid again Among the window flowers.. And miss her with her toys, beside My chair in cheerful play; And then I turn and look for her, --But she has flown away. I drop my idle pen, and hark, And catch the faintest sound--She must be playing hide-and-seek In shady nooks around. She'll come and climb my chair again, And peep my shoulder o'er; Methinks I hear her laugh--but no, She cometh nevermore. 'Twas only yesternight, ...

Download or read book Working Verse in Victorian Scotland written by Kirstie Blair and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume reassesses working-class poetry and poetics in Victorian Britain, using Scotland as a focus and with particular attention to the role of the popular press in fostering and disseminating working-class verse cultures. It studies a very wide variety of writers who are unknown to scholarship, and assesses the political, social, and cultural work which their poetry performed. During the Victorian period, Scotland underwent unprecedented changes in terms of industrialization, the rise of the city, migration, and emigration. This study shows how poets who defined themselves as part of a specifically Scottish tradition responded to these changes. It substantially revises our understanding of Scottish literature in this period, while contributing to wider investigations of the role of popular verse in national and international cultures.

Download or read book Who Made the Scottish Enlightenment written by Colin Russell and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scottish Enlightenment is often portrayed as elitist and Edinburgh based with no universally agreed beginning or end. Additionally, the Philosophers and scholars (the great Scottish Enlightenment figures) sometimes obscure significant contributions from other disciplines so that the achievements of a wider conception of the Scottish Enlightenment are not universally known. Sir Walter Scott also recognised that his nation 'the peculiar features of whose manners and character are daily melting and dissolving into that of her sister and ally' had an identity crisis. Both issues are addressed in this enquiry which seeks to highlight the scale and breadth of the Scottish Enlightenment whilst posing the question as to how Scottish identity can be preserved.
