Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ballads of a Country-Boy Long, long ago (ah, how long!) there was a barefoot boy, aerech-shinned (the pampered affliction - and shall not known), strayed of garments, wont to scud the moors, and skip the hills, and thread his way by the briary brooks in the green glen of Donegal, his pockets bursting with ballads, and his heart with love of Irekand; the former of which he thought the grandest boon earth could bestwo, and the latter the most soul-satisfying joy in the gift of the gods. The world had named him very poor - because, then as now, the world sees only the superficialities. To appear poor to the crowd was probably his whim - one of those whims which we can all so easily pardon, even admire, in the avowedly opulent. For, in truth, he was of the millionaire magnates of earth, master of mines among his native mountains, gold and silver mines and diamond, which sank to insignificance all the trove of over-sung El Dorado.
