Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ballads of the English Reformation Of the five ballads contained in the following pages, those of John Brown´s martyrdom and Hugh Latimer are the only ones in which I have taken leave to draw upon my imagination. The others are simply versified history. And in the case of the two where I have employed a certain amount of fiction, I have followed, nevertheless, the facts of history so far as they go, as the, reader may see by referring to the Notes. I would bespeak an indulgent criticism for these verses, on the plea that a writer of ballads is not bound to achieve a high poetic flight. I conceive that the cadence of metre will of itself do something to heighten the effect of a striking narrative; and that, for this reason alone, it is worth while to versify a tale which one would have to abide in the memory and heart of the reader.
