Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Collection of Seventy-Nine Black-Letter Ballads and Broadsides I Love a ballad in print," are the words put by Shakespeare into the mouth of one of his characters, and from his evident fondness for them we must infer that he is conveying his own feelings through the mouth of the speaker. Another great writer of our own days, Sir Walter Scott, had an equal predilection for this species of literature, and has availed himself of them in the fascinating productions of his pen. The Collections of Phillips, Percy, Evans, Ritson, Pinkerton, Jamieson and others, are a convincing proof of the favour with which they have been received by the public. It may be confidently asserted that the present collection is not less interesting, and is certainly much more curious, than any that have preceded it, illustrating as it does the language, opinions, manners, usages, the feelings and passing events of the greater part of the reign of Queen Elizabeth.
