Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Poems, Chiefly in the Scottish Dialect Beneath a lowly roof o´straw, Did I the vital air first draw, When surly Winter held his reign Owre histy height an´ level plain. Sae deep the snaw lay on each field, It ilka hedge an´ dyke conceal´d; While through my cottage´ chinky door The drift pil´d on the earthen floor: Sae neither gossiping nor mirth Attended on my humble birth. An´ should the outset o´ my rhymes Meet cauld reception frae the times, It´s only what their author met, When in the warld his nose he set. Soon thoughtless childhood pass´d the hallan, An´ I at length became a callan´, Wi´ a´ the joyes, an´ hopes, an´ fears, That houff the spring-time o´ our years. When aught years auld, I took the bent A muirland farmer´s flock to tent; About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
