English Border Ballads (Classic Reprint) by Peter Burn Pdf

Excerpt from English Border Ballads AN eminent statesman is, reported to have said Let me make the ballads of a nation, and I care not who makes the laws. We echo the wish, for the ambition is a noble one. The human heart is a musical instrument, and like an Eolian lyre, waits the magic touch; and happy is that man who can stir and thrill its harmonic chords! Sweet is the influence of song! It awakens pleasant memories, and speaks to us of those who were, but are not. The Ballads of a country win us into a sym. Pathetic relationship with bygone times, and the spirits of the dead, - the heart of to-day beating in harmony with that of a ruder age.

Mexican Border Ballads by F. B. Camp Pdf

Excerpt from Mexican Border Ballads: Written on the Border Long the Mexican Border, August twenty-eight. Dear Mother: I am writing, I know a trifle late, But I have been so busy, with the Soldiers' daily grind That I've neglected writing, but I know you will not mind, When you've read what I am writing, you'll feel a whole lot better, And I promise that hereafter, I will write a daily letter. Tell Sis she wouldn't know me, since I left our little town, For the sun has surely baked me, a most gorgeous golden brown, Tell Dad if he could see me, he would never cuss me more, For oversleeping mornings, or neglecting any chore. Tell little brother Bennie, I've a pistol and a gun, A really truly rifle, that wasn't made for fun. Tell Hattie that I love her, when you see her, Mother dear, That sleeping, drilling, working, I keep wishing she were here. Tell Aunty that I thank her for the little wooden box.

Whaup O' the Rede by Will Ogilvie Pdf

Excerpt from Whaup O' the Rede: A Ballad of the Border Raiders The Following is a simple and rugged song in simple words, dealing with the strenuous times of our forbears, and founded on a well-known incident in raiding warfare. It is written down from the fulness of a heart that loves every leaf and grass blade on the Borders, and it is written for those understanding people whose heritage is the memory and legend that wraps romance around the Marches. If it brings to them anything of the freshness of those glorious hills among which its scenes are laid, anything of the spirit of those stirring days in which our forefathers fought and rode, anything of the lights and shadows that roll unceasingly across the slopes of Cheviot and down the Ettrick valley, it has not been written in vain.

Sir Walter Scott and the Border Minstrelsy (Classic Reprint) by Andrew Lang Pdf

Excerpt from Sir Walter Scott and the Border Minstrelsy Persons not much interested in, or cognisant of, "antiquarian old womanries," as Sir Walter called them, may ask "what all the pother is about," in this little tractate. On my side it is "about" the veracity of Sir Walter Scott. He has been suspected of helping to compose, and of issuing as a genuine antique, a ballad, Auld Maitland. He also wrote about the ballad, as a thing obtained front recitation to two friends and fellow-antiquaries. If to Scott's knowledge it was a modern imitation, Sir Walter deliberately lied. He did not: he did obtain the whole ballad from Hogg, who got it front recitation - as I believe, and try to prove, and as Scott certainly believed. The facts in the case exist in published works, and in manuscript letters of Ritson to Scott, and Hogg to Scott, and in the original MS. of the song, with a note by Hogg to Laidlaw. If we are interested in the truth about the matter, we ought at least to read the very accessible material before bringing charges against the Sheriff and the Shepherd of Ettrick.

North Country Ballads (Classic Reprint) by Henry Todd Pdf

Excerpt from North Country Ballads North Country Ballads. An English Thermopylae. Now the summer day is done, Now sinks the summer sun To his rest behind Helvellyn's bulwark steep: Strikes the ruddy glory now On Placefell's lofty brow, And across the dale the twilight shadows creep. Now the scythe is laid aside, Which the sturdy dalesman plied In the meadows by the Goldrill's water clear: Now the haymaking is done, And the crop is housed and won; All is over, save the laughter and the cheer.

Ballads of the Bivouac and the Border (Classic Reprint) by Edwin Arthur Welty Pdf

Excerpt from Ballads of the Bivouac and the Border Rose and Bessie's Picture, and The Rhyme of the Wedding Ring. His last poems, The Poet's Vision and A New Year Greeting, are poems keyed to a minor and sadder strain than are his usual productions. These shorter poems are however, all, gems of their kind, and show the versatility and real poetic genius of their author, faultless in metre and graceful in style, and yet strong and polished as they are, they are but his minor poems. It is, how ever, by his ballads that Mr. Welty's capacity as a writer must be judged, and the verdict of posterity as to his place as a poet must be based upon his more serious compositions, and so based, we feel the conclusion that this verdict will be, that of the younger generation of American poets, those of the period between the '7os and the '9os he has indeed had few peers and certainly no Superiors.
