THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
——— * Art.n Roiiin Giiay”—.‘v Centenary
“.Many greater poets have never had their words so often on women's lips as the authoress of ‘Attld Robin Gray.’ It is a hundred years since Lady Aline Barnard died, and we keep her centenary with every confidence that as long as people are talking Scots her ballad will be part of their familiar poetry. How much of ils appeal lies ill the music, which is much older than Lady Anno, how much in the verse, we shall not attempt to analyse. It suffices that her words, and not those which went with the tune before, have endured." -London “Daily Telegraph”.
