Excerpt from Jacobite Songs and Ballads (Selected): With Notes, Genealogical Table of the Stuarts, Introduction, Glossary, &C N the following poems and ballads the arrangement is as nearly as possible chronological, so as to give in some measure a history of the events which they com. Among the number will be found many poems Of great beauty, dramatic power, and pathos, while some, though characteristic and humorous, are little better than doggerel. What must chiefly strike the reader, as he looks through these songs of the people, is the wonderful variety they Show, and the forcible way in which they exemplify the manifold feelings and passions of human nature. The Highlanders were essentially a conservative people; they clung to Old fashions, and they resisted fiercely all attempts at innovation. Throughout the songs this conservatism is predominant; the cry is constantly for the Old ways and the Old insular line Of kings and the bitter feeling against the House of Hanover seems to be greatly due to its foreign element and to its new-{angled customs.
