Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of the Ettrick Shepherd It is gratifying to think that such genuine excellence has obtained a correspondent recognition. The productions of the Ettrick Shepherd, by their own intrinsic excellence, have won their way, and secured their proper place among the lasting literary achieve ments of our countrymen. While they excited the admiration of the bygone period, and made the public to wonder that they could have been written by any one under such adverse circumstances as his, their popularity was not, like that of so many contem poraneous works, confined to their own day. They have stood the severest ordeal of criticism, and every year has only added to their reputation. Like the national characteristics of Scotland, which they so well illustrate, they have only been hardened into permanence by the trial through which they have passed unscathed; and they bid fair to endure as long as Scottish individuality continues to be prized and cherished. And although the fashion of things may change with the mutations of time, the Ettrick Shepherd's writings, along with those of Scott and of Burns, will still continue to be valued as the faithful transcripts of an existence dear to memory, though its forms have become obsolete, as well as of those more solid and substantial national virtues which neither fashion can change nor time eradicate.

This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tales of James Hogg, the Ettrick Shepherd, Vol. 2 "I Hope the king will not hunt to-day," said Gale, as he sat down on the top of the South Eiidon, and stretched out his lazy limbs in the sun. "If he keep within doors to-day with his yelping beagles, I shall have one day's peace and ease; and my lambs shall have one day's peace and ease; and poor Trimrny shall have one day's peace and ease too. Come hither to me, Trimmy, and tell me what is the reason that you will not hunt with the king's two snow-white beagles?" Trimmy came near, laid her paw on her master's knee, and looked him in the face, but she could not tell him what was the reason that she would not hunt with the king's two beagles, Mooly and Scratch. "I say, tell me, my good Trimmy, what you ail at these beautiful hounds? You wont to be the best follower of a track in all the Merse and Leader; but now, whenever you hear the sound of the horn, and the opening swell of the hounds, you take your tail between your legs and set off for home, as there were something on the hill that were neither good nor cannie. You area very sensible beast, Trimmy, but you have some strange fancies and prejudices that I cannot comprehend." Trimmy cocked her cars, and looked towards the Abbey, then at her matter, and then at the Abbey again. "Ah! I fear you hear them coming that you are cocking your cars at that rate. Then, if that be the case, good morning to you, Trimmy." It was neither the king nor his snow-white beagles that Trimmy winded, but poor Croudy, Gale's neighbour shepherd, who was coming sauntering up the brae, with his black lumpish dog at his foot, that was fully as stupid as himself, and withal as good-natured. Croudy was never lifting his eyes from the ground, but moving on as if he had been enumerating all the little yellow flowers that grew on the hill. Yet it was not for want of thought that Croudy was walking in that singular position, with his body bent forward, and the one ear turned down towards the ground, and the other up. No, no! for Croudy was trying to think all that he could; and all that he could do he could make nothing of it. Croudy had seen and heard wonderful things! "Bless me and my horn!" said he, as he sat down on a stone to vest himself, and try if he could bring his thoughts to any rallying point, it was impossible - they were like a hive of bees when the queen is taken from their head. He took out the little crooked ewe-horn that he kept as a charm; he had got it from his mother, and it had descended to him from many generations; he turned it round in the one hand, and then round in the other hand - he put it upon his finger and twirled it. "Bless me an' my horn!" said he again. Then leaning forward upon his staff, he looked aslant at the ground, and began to moralize. "It is a growing world - ay - the gerse grows; the lambs eat it - they grow - ay - we cat them - we grow - there it goes! - men, women, dogs, bairns, a' cat - a' grow; the yird eats up a' - it grows - what comes o' it? - Hoh! I'm fixed now! - I'm at the end o' my tether. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of James Hogg, the Ettrick Shepherd The Memorials of James Hogg published in 1884, having been received with much kindness and approbation, an issue of the work in a slightly different and cheaper form has been asked. I have much pleasure in bringing this work in a less expensive form before a larger class of readers. The indomitable, perseverance and energy of the Ettrick Shepherd convey many a wholesome lesson. Fortunately there are few in the present day who have had such limited educational advantages, and still fewer who without those advantages have been able to rise to a position of marked eminence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from James Hogg, the Ettrick Shepherd James Hogg was born at Ettrickhall, in the parish of Ettrick, in the year 1770. Unfortunately, it is impossible to fix the exact date Of his birth. There was no Registration Act in those days, and birthdays in the case of ordinary mortals were seldom celebrated, SO that it is hardly surprising that our poet, when he began to interest himself in the matter, Should have had some difficulty in knowing when he first saw the light. He was wont to aflirm that he was born on the 25th of January, 1772. He may have been right as to the day and the month, but he was almost certainly wrong as to the year. In the Kirk Session Records Of Ettrick his baptism is recorded as having taken place on the 9th December, 1770. But if he was born in January, it does seem strange that he was not baptised till the following December. His father's house was Within a few yards Of the Manse, SO that even if he had been a very delicate child - Of which there is no evidence - there was noreason for his baptism being so long delayed. It has been surmised that Hogg fixed on the asth January as his natal day, because he had the ambition Of becoming the successor Of Burns, and perhaps thought that to be born on the same day was a favourable augury. There may not be much in the suggestion, though it is by no means incredible. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ettrick Shepherd, Vol. 9: A Biography Hogg wrote an autobiography that is true to fact in the main but which contains innumerable errors due to a playful but wilful exaggeration, and to lapses of memory. SO far as the present writer knows, no biographer has taken the trouble to investigate the facts contained in the Autobiography, much less to note the unsigned and original draft, that differed so much in detail, and that appeared in the Old Scots' Magazine. It has been the present writer's pleasant task to search out many details that put the story of Hogg's life, in parts, in a new light. In perusing these three biographies of Hogg the reader is struck with the fact that none of them deals with him as a literary artist. The fact that he wrote, and what he wrote, seems to be important, but the quality and character of what he wrote is quite neglected. In the following pages some notice of this aspect of his life is taken. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales and Sketches, by the Ettrick Shepherd, Vol. 1 It was a season of calamity and awful interest. From the midst of thatinhospitable wilderness, from those dark morasses, and unfrequented caverns, the prayers of the persecuted race nightly rose to the throne of the Almighty; prayers, as all testified who heard them, fraught with the most simple pathos, as well as bold and vehement sublimity. In the solemn gloom of the evening, after the last rays of day had disappeared, and again in the morning before the ruddy streaks began to paint the east; yea, often at the deepest hours of midnight, songs of praise were sung to that being under whose fatherly chastisement they were patiently suffering. These hymns, always chanted With ardour and wild melody, and borne afar on'the light breezes of the twilight, were often heard at a great dis tance, causing no little consternation to the remote dwel lers of that mountain region. The heart of the shep herd grew chill, and his hairs stood on end, as he hasted home to alarm the cottage circle with a tale of horror. For, besides this'solemn and unearthly music, he perceiv ed lights moving about by night in wilds and in caverns where human thing had never resided, and where foot of man 'had never trod, and be deemed that legions of spiritual creatures had once more taken possession of his solitary dens.
