Book Description
Excerpt from A Book of Roxburghe Ballads The main purpose of the ensuing collection is to shew, in their most genuine state, the character and quality of productions, written expressly for the amusement of the lower orders, in the reigns of Elizabeth, James, and Charles. Our volume consists of such ordinary materials as formed the flock of the English ballad-finger during a period not far short of a century. Many traces will be found in them of the modes in which they were rendered acceptable to the crowd, when sung in our most frequented thoroughfares. It would, therefore, be manifestly unfair to judge of them by the standard usually applied to the higher classes of poetry, although poetry of no inferior description will occasionally be found in them: nor are their merits to be measured by the easier process of comparison with well known works, in some respects similar.
