Hame-Spun Lilts, or Poems and Songs, Chiefly Scottish (Classic Reprint)

William Allan
0/5 ( ratings)
Excerpt from Hame-Spun Lilts, or Poems and Songs, Chiefly Scottish

When my primal ?ights of fancy, under the title Of Rough Castings, were given to the public, I laboured under a feeling, which I suppose is the peculiar privilege of all those who become authors -viz., nervous doubt as to whether their efforts would stand the test of the critic. However in different I may have assumed myself to be to all criticism, still I was not insensible to, nor did I undervalue, the Opinions of those whose literary acquirements are a guarantee Of their sound judgment on such works. I was pleased to note the favourable reviews accorded to Rough Castings, and I now freely admit, that on again mounting my fireside Pegasus, the poor beast received some severe lacerations in her towsie hide from these rowel reviews.
