Book Description
Excerpt from The Lyrics and Ballads of Sir Walter Scott The critic who would praise without reserve the poetry of Scott, has not only all the other critics against him, but has to reckon with Sir Walter himself. He frankly stated that he never cared much for his own poetry: he did not think it of sufficient excellence for his children to read, but regarded it as a 'light horse' kind of rhyme, fit for young men fond of adventure and of the open air. In his address to William Erskine, his friend and adviser, in the Preface to the Third Canto of Marmion, he speaks as all honest poets must speak to all such friends. These are continually asking a man not to be himself, not to do what heaven has given him the power of doing, but to attempt something else. Erskine wanted Scott to study the classics. 'Vos exemplaria Graeca Nocturna versate manu, versate diurna.' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
