Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Traditional Ballad Airs: Arranged and Harmonised for the Pianoforte and Harmonium, From Copies Procured in the Counties of Aberdeen, Banff, and Moray The Editor, in the short preface given in the first volume, remarked that he considered it unnecessary to reiterate what has been so well written by others on Ballads and Ballad Music; and, therefore, as he can give nothing new on the subject, farther than the illustration he has given in the two volumes of this work, he thinks he may use one word from the inscription on the tomb of Sir Christopher Wren, in St. Paul's Cathedral, circumspice. Much is now talked of as to poetry being the language of nature, and ballads being the originals of all history, both sacred and secular. Doubtless the ballads sung on the banks of the Tiber may have been used for the earlier pages of Livy 5 History; and the ballads about Wallace and Bruce may record their achievements, for man cannot help recording events in poetry, if he has a poetical mind. And so, some historical critics suppose, that the book of Jasher was a ballad-book recording the early history of the Israelites but it does not follow that this ballad-book is the original of the most ancient and sacred history, which has been such a comfort to all who believe in it. The Editor has long been of Opinion, from all he has discovered, that ballads are almost worthless as a true record of historical events. They refer to events, but the events are so distorted in them, as to show their want of authenticity to prove the whole of the historical facts to which they refer. They are merely impressions on the minds of the populace at the time the events happened, according to the varied circum stances reported, and in passing from one person to another, no two persons almost are found to recite a traditional ballad in the same form, or give exactly the same circumstances. There are about a dozen airs in the volumes, different sets of which were given in Johnson's Museum. When the Editor consulted his friend the late Dr. Laing, who knew more about ballads and ballad music than any other one in Scotland, he quite agreed with him in his opinion that the original copies of traditional Airs can scarcely be found unless got from the original composer, seeing that they pass through so many persons until they are noted by the collector of them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PREFACE. THE Author of this very practical treatise on Scotch Loch - Fishing desires clearly that it may be of use to all who had it. He does not pretend to have written anything new, but to have attempted to put what he has to say in as readable a form as possible. Everything in the way of the history and habits of fish has been studiously avoided, and technicalities have been used as sparingly as possible. The writing of this book has afforded him pleasure in his leisure moments, and that pleasure would be much increased if he knew that the perusal of it would create any bond of sympathy between himself and the angling community in general. This section is interleaved with blank shects for the readers notes. The Author need hardly say that any suggestions addressed to the case of the publishers, will meet with consideration in a future edition. We do not pretend to write or enlarge upon a new subject. Much has been said and written-and well said and written too on the art of fishing but loch-fishing has been rather looked upon as a second-rate performance, and to dispel this idea is one of the objects for which this present treatise has been written. Far be it from us to say anything against fishing, lawfully practised in any form but many pent up in our large towns will bear us out when me say that, on the whole, a days loch-fishing is the most convenient. One great matter is, that the loch-fisher is depend- ent on nothing but enough wind to curl the water, -and on a large loch it is very seldom that a dead calm prevails all day, -and can make his arrangements for a day, weeks beforehand whereas the stream- fisher is dependent for a good take on the state of the water and however pleasant and easy it may be for one living near the banks of a good trout stream or river, it is quite another matter to arrange for a days river-fishing, if one is looking forward to a holiday at a date some weeks ahead. Providence may favour the expectant angler with a good day, and the water in order but experience has taught most of us that the good days are in the minority, and that, as is the case with our rapid running streams, -such as many of our northern streams are, -the water is either too large or too small, unless, as previously remarked, you live near at hand, and can catch it at its best. A common belief in regard to loch-fishing is, that the tyro and the experienced angler have nearly the same chance in fishing, -the one from the stern and the other from the bow of the same boat. Of all the absurd beliefs as to loch-fishing, this is one of the most absurd. Try it. Give the tyro either end of the boat he likes give him a cast of ally flies he may fancy, or even a cast similar to those which a crack may be using and if he catches one for every three the other has, he may consider himself very lucky. Of course there are lochs where the fish are not abundant, and a beginner may come across as many as an older fisher but we speak of lochs where there are fish to be caught, and where each has a fair chance. Again, it is said that the boatman has as much to do with catching trout in a loch as the angler. Well, we dont deny that. In an untried loch it is necessary to have the guidance of a good boatman but the same argument holds good as to stream-fishing...
