Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Poetical Works of Robert Burns: With His Song and Fragments, to Which Is Prefixed a Sketch of His Life My Lords and Gentlemen, A Scottish Bard, proud of the name, and whose highest ambition is to sing in his Country´s service, where shall he so properly look for patronage as to the illustrious Names of his native Land; those who bear the honours and inherit the virtues of their Ancestors? The Poetic Genuis of my Country found me, as the prophetic bard Elijah did Elisha - at the Plough: and threw her inspiring mantle over me. She had me sing the loves, the joys, the rural scenes and rural pleasures of my natal soil, in my native tongue: I tuned my wild, artless notes, as she inspired. - She whispered me to come to this ancient Metropolis of Caledonia, and lay my songs under your honoured protection; I now obey her dictates. Though much indebted to your goodness, I do not approach you, my Lords and Gentlemen, in the usual style of dedication, to thank you for past favours; that path is so hackneyed by prostituted learning, that honest rusticity is ashamed of it.
