Description:Excerpt from Ochil Idylls, and Other PoemsThe author of Horace in Homespun has not been able to decide whether the measure of approval accorded to his book is attributable to what he might call the capitals of classical Latinity which he daringly appropriated for the adornment of his work, or to the rude columns of Doric Scots which stand beneath them; in a word. To Horace or to Haliburton - Men and Muses! Forgive the audacity of the association. Whichever be the cause - or, not to be too modest. The main cause - the result is gratifying. It shows either that Latin is still - what it has long been in Scotland - a tongue by no means unknown and unappreciated among the common people of the North; or - and this would be, from the author's view. A more satisfactory condition of things literary that the ancient vernacular, thought by despondent patriots to be moribund, if not something more, is still vigorous enough to be intelligible, and to assert some degree of mastership in its ain house at hame.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
