Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Outre-Mer, Vol. 2 of 2: A Pilgrimage Beyond the Sea Ancient Spanish Ballads. "I love ballad but even too well, if it be doleful matter merrily set down, or a very pleasant thing indeed, and sung lamentably." Winter´s Tale. How universal is the love of poetry! Every nation has its popular songs, the offspring of a credulous simplicity and an unschooled fancy. The peasant of the north, as he sits by the evening fire, sings the traditionary ballad to his children, - ´Nor wants he gleeful tales, while round The nut-brown bowl doth trot´ The peasant of the south, as he lies at noon in the shade of the sycamore, or sits by his door in the evening twilight, sings his amorous lay, and listlessly ´On hollow quills of oaten straw, He pipeth melody.´ About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
