Not illustrated. 1876 edition. Excerpt: ...daurn my socks mysel'. Guid kens what can possess the craters, They cut at times sic funny capers, It's really hard tae tell. This a' proceeds frae eddication, It fosters insubordination In workshop or in pit. Ower the parlour, ower the kitchen, They maun ha'e the chief direction, The heid tae tak the fit. Some gang in for legislation, Tae guide the Cooncil o' the nation, An' Bradlaugh is the cry. The Hoose o' Lords may noo resign, . It's had its day, it's served its time--1 Good-bye, sweetheart, good-bye.' The ' Claimant's' case is pendin' still, An' though the Judge has made his will, An' jurymen look pale, He disna pit hissel ' about, But keeps his health, is big an' stoot, An' very like a whale.

TO THE LARK. Again we hear thy glorious song O'er fields and valleys ring! Thou, earliest of the tuneful throng, To usher in the spring. Beneath the warmth of brighter skies, Cheered by thy stirring strain, Hopes, faint before, exulting rise--The future smiles again. Enraptured by thy melody, Downpouring like a flood, Thoughts, purged from earth's impurity, Are wafted up to God. The strains from earthly shrines that rise, Are tame compared with thine; Thy temple walls are sunlit skies, Thou worshipper sublime! While listening to the song he sings, Its burden seems to be: Aspire, young Hope, to lofty things! Rejoice, and climb like me! THE OLD ABBEY CHURCH, HADDINGTON. Long may the ancient Abbey stand, Though Time, with sacrilegious hand, Would fain its pride o'erthrow! The grass now grows on its sacred floor, More sacred now than it was before--The..

This book places the songs of Renart le nouvel in the broader context of this late medieval romance. As argued here, Renart le nouvel was written in two different stages, its first book around 1260 and its second around 1300. The first book presents situations and animals that stand for key events and characters in 1250s Flanders, mostly pertaining to the famous quarrel of the Avesnes and Dampierre families. The second book ushers in a more apocalyptic mood that reflects the deteriorating political situation in Flanders in the final decades of the thirteenth century. The songs of Renart le nouvel give voice both to a mounting apocalyptic mood and to a related cynicism towards courtly love. As the embodiment of duplicity, Renart the fox sings an especially cynical song, one that is ultimately passed on to an animal that makes a brief appearance in our romance but is soon destined for fame: Fauvel the ass. In particular, the emerging genre of the motet expresses the duplicitous and satirical spirits of the fox and the ass. French text.

A comedy of Aristophanes was in large measure a musical performance, and his lyric verse covers a wide range of styles - from popular song to parody of tragedy. The music is lost, and our only way of recovering something of the experience of an Athenian audience is by studying the rhythms of the poetry. This book provides a full text, with scansions, of the lyric of the surviving plays, and an introduction to the different rhythms used by Aristophanes, their origins, and literary associations. Dr Parker pays particular attention to the role played by lyric metre in the structure of the plays and to distinguishing the different levels of metrical style, thus illustrating the integral part metre plays in Aristophanes' dramatic art and satire. She also discusses fully the metrical aspects of textual problems in Aristophanes' lyric, and a section of the introduction traces the evolution of the study of Aristophanes' metres and the influence this has had on the text.
