Excerpt from Some Old English Worthies Long, long ago, when he knew nothing of an alphabet, man sought amusement for his leisure other than the slaughter of his enemies and the pursuit of game. But since these things constituted, for him, the main business of life, he could not forget them even in his hours of relaxation; so, if he carved rude pictures on bone, they were pictures of himself engaged in these pursuits; and if he composed chants, equally rude, they too set forth his exploits at large. With the latter mode of expressing himself he introduced, without knowing it, a great art - the art of Literature. Ballad-making came, in time, to be the peculiar province of a certain class whose business it was to preserve the traditions of their race. To the oral minstrelsy of these tribal gleemen we owe our knowledge of ancient nations which had no other means of perpetuating their history. Not in Europe only, but in every inhabited quarter of the globe we find traces of the bards. They sang in verse because to 'catch the popular ear' it was necessary to adopt the fashion of rhyming. Poetry is, moreover, easier to remember than prose; and the method has this additional recommendation, that its followers are less liable to err. The autocratic nature of metre will not suffer alterations; whereas prose is more elastic and offers scope for the exercise of what Buckle calls the principle of accumulation.
