Excerpt from English Border Ballads AN eminent statesman is, reported to have said: Let me make the ballads of a nation, and I care not who makes the laws. We echo the wish, for the ambition is a noble one. The human heart is a musical instrument, and like an [eolian lyre, waits the magic touch; and happy is that man who can stir and thrill its harmonic chords! Sweet is the in uence of song! It awakens pleasant memories, and speaks to us of those who were, but are not. The Ballads of a country win us into a sym. Pathetic relationship with bygone times, and the spirits of the dead, - the heart of to-day beating in harmony with that of a ruder age.

Excerpt from Mexican Border Ballads: Written on the Border Long the Mexican Border, August twenty-eight. Dear Mother: I am writing, I know a trifle late, But I have been so busy, with the Soldiers' daily grind That I've neglected writing, but I know you will not mind, When you've read what I am writing, you'll feel a whole lot better, And I promise that hereafter, I will write a daily letter. Tell Sis she wouldn't know me, since I left our little town, For the sun has surely baked me, a most gorgeous golden brown, Tell Dad if he could see me, he would never cuss me more, For oversleeping mornings, or neglecting any chore. Tell little brother Bennie, I've a pistol and a gun, A really truly rifle, that wasn't made for fun. Tell Hattie that I love her, when you see her, Mother dear, That sleeping, drilling, working, I keep wishing she were here. Tell Aunty that I thank her for the little wooden box.

Excerpt from Further Essays on Border Ballads In writing the following essays my object has been to determine on the genuineness, or otherwise, of four well-known Border ballads. Three of these, namely, the so-called Scottish version of the ballad of the 'Battle of Otterburn, ' 'Auld Maitland, ' and 'Kinmont Willie, ' were published for the first time by Sir Walter Scott in the Minstrelsy of the Scottish Border; the fourth was known to but not published by Sir Walter, who for some reason preferred to place in his work what was clearly a later version. 'Auld Maitland' and the 'Battle of Otterburn' have frequently been quoted by our great writers as extremely interesting instances of traditions of historic incidents having been handed down orally, in the shape of verse, through very many generations, and so also has 'Kinmont Willie, ' though, of course, the interest therein is of less degree, since it relates to comparatively modern times.

Excerpt from The Trustworthiness of Border Ballads: As Exemplified by "Jamie Telfer I' the Fair Dodhead" And Other Ballads Both versions are interesting in their way, - the one in that the story defies criticism, the other as an instance of a ballad having been adapted - as we are told used frequently to be done in old days - to suit the ears of a powerful chief or clan.

Excerpt from Whaup O' the Rede: A Ballad of the Border Raiders The Following is a simple and rugged song in simple words, dealing with the strenuous times of our forbears, and founded on a well-known incident in raiding warfare. It is written down from the fulness of a heart that loves every leaf and grass blade on the Borders, and it is written for those understanding people whose heritage is the memory and legend that wraps romance around the Marches. If it brings to them anything of the freshness of those glorious hills among which its scenes are laid, anything of the spirit of those stirring days in which our forefathers fought and rode, anything of the lights and shadows that roll unceasingly across the slopes of Cheviot and down the Ettrick valley, it has not been written in vain.
