Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cotter's Saturday Night, and Other Poems The poetry of Burns is altogether the most genuine thing that we find in English literature. Unstudied, artless, often rude, it voices the joys and sorrows, the loves, the aspirations of the human heart, and interprets the beauty of the commonplace, - that beauty which lies all about us, if we had but eyes to see. Burns performed the miracle of the old fairy tale, spinning out of the straw upon the cottage floor a thread of finest gold. It is this clear vision of the beautiful in everyday life, this wide humanity, this deep sincerity, that has made him the most loved and - excepting Shakespeare - the most widely read of all the British poets. There was nothing in the circumstances of his life to make a poet; indeed there was everything to discourage the making of one.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ingleside Rhaims: Verses in the Dialect of Burns Some of the pieces here published are more prop erly studies, or imitations, than poems. But I have remembered that so great a master of his art as Burns himself, was indebted to other poets for the suggestion of such productions as even his in imitable Cotter's Saturday Night. Not to speak of The Holy Fair Whatever else, however, these poems may want. I hope they will not be re garded as deficient in purity, simplicity, and truth fulness, and that some of them may be found to possess even genuine poetic grace. My aim in the use of the Scotch dialect has been less to follow its peculiar idioms, which would have made me unintelligible to the mass of Eng lish readers, than to secure from it qualities of beauty, for which, I think, it will always remain unequalled. In a period when the tendency is away from the daily home-life, which is the se curity of the individual and the hope of 'the nation, I have tried to depict some of its gentle attractions; thankful if I may thus express my gratitude to God for the home-life of my childhood, as well as that of my maturer years and possibly may awaken kindred emotions in the bosom of others.
