# The Book of Scottish Song/The Maid of Glenconnel

The Maid of Glenconnel.
[Munro.—Air by the Earl of Eglinton.]
The pearl of the fountain, the rose of the valley, Are sparkling and lovely, are stainless and mild; The pearl sheds its ray 'neath the dark water gaily, The rose opes its blossoms to bloom on the wild. The pearl and the rose are the emblems of Mary, The maid of Glenconnel, once lovely and gay; A false lover woo'd her—ye damsels be wary— Now scathed is the blossom, now dimm'd is the ray.
You have seen her, when morn brightly dawn'd on the mountain, Trip blythely along, singing sweet to the gale; At noon, with her lambs, by the side of yon fountain; Or wending, at eve, to her home in the vale. ​With the flowers of the willow-tree blent is her tresses, Now, woe-worn and pale, in the glen she is seen Bewailing the cause of her rueful distresses,— How fondly he vow'd—and how false he has been.
# The Book of Scottish Song/The Making o' the Hay

The Making o’ the Hay.
[Robert Nicoll.]
Across the riggs we'll wander The new-mawn hay amang, And hear the blackbird in the wood, And gi'e it sang for sang. We'll gi'e it sang for sang, we will, For ilka heart is gay, As lads and lasses trip alang At making o' the hay!
It is sae sweetly scented, It seems a maiden's breath; Aboon, the sun has wither'd it, But there is green beneath. But there is caller green beneath, Come, lasses, foot away! The heart is dowie can be cauld At making o' the hay! ​Step lightly o'er, gang saftly by, Mak' rig and furrow clean, And coil it up in fragrant heaps,— We maun ha'e done at e'en:— We maun ha'e done at gloaming e'en; And when the clouds grow grey, Ilk lad may kiss his bonnie lass Amang the new-made hay!
# The Book of Scottish Song/The Mason Laddie

The Mason Laddie.
[Tune, "Sandy ower the lea."]
Leaning ower a window, and looking ower a mound, I spied a mason laddie, wha gave my heart a wound; A wound, and a wound, and a deadly wound gave he; And I wad wash his apron an he wad fancy me.
I winna ha'e the minister, for a' his many books I winna ha'e the dominie, for a' his wylie looks; I will ha'e nane o' the twa, though they wad fancy me; But my bonnie mason laddie he bears awa' the gree.
I winna ha'e the mautman, for a' his muckle sho'el, Nor will I ha'e the miller, for a' his mity meal, I wad ha'e nane o' thae twa, though they wad fancy me; For my bonnie mason laddie he's up the scaffold hie.
I winna ha'e the ploughman, that gangs at the pleuch; Nor yet will I the chaplain, though he has gear eneuch; I wad ha'e nane o' thae twa, though they wad fancy me; For my bonnie mason laddie has stown the heart frae me.
I winna ha'e the souter, that rubs upon the shoon; Nor yet will I the weaver, that gingles on the loom; I wad ha'e nane o' thae twa, though they wad fancy me; For my bonnie mason laddie he bears awa' the gree.
The smith that canna lay an axe is no a man o' craft; The wright that canna seam a deal can scarcely lay a laft. The lad that canna kiss a lass is no a lad for me; But my bonnie mason laddie he can do a' the three.
# The Book of Scottish Song/The Mermaiden

The Mermaiden.
[William Motherwell.—Set to music in R. A. Smith's Scottish Minstrel.]
The nicht is mirk, and the wind blaws schill, And the white faem weets my bree, And my mind misgi'es me, gay maiden, That the land we sall never see! Then up and spak' the mermaiden, And she spak' blythe and free, "I never said to my bonnie bridegroom, That on land we suld weddit be.
"Oh! I never said that ane erthlie preest Our bridal blessing should gi'e, And I never said that a landwart bouir Should hald my luve and me." And whare is that preest, my bonnie maiden, If ane erthlie wicht is na he? "Oh! the wind will sough, and the sea will rair, When weddit we twa sall be."
And whare is that bouir, my bonnie maiden, If on land it suld na be? "Oh! my blythe bouir is low," said the mermaiden, "In the bonnie green howes o' the sea: ​My gay bouir is biggit o' the gude ships' keels, And the banes o' the drowned at sea; The fisch are the deer that fill my parks, And the water waste my drurie.
"And my bouir is sklaitit wi' the big blue waves, And paved wi' the yellow sand, And in my chalmers grow bonnie white flowers That never grew on land. And have ye e'er seen, my bonnie bridegroom, A leman on earth that wuld gi'e Aiker for aiker o' the red ploughed land, As I'll gi'e to thee o' the sea?
The mune will rise in half ane hour, And the wee bricht sterns will shine; Then we'll sink to my bouir 'neath the wan water Full fifty fathom and nine." A wild, wild skreich, gi'ed the fey bridegroom, And a loud, loud laugh, the bride; For the mune raise up, and the twa sank down Under the silver'd tide.
# The Book of Scottish Song/The Maid I lo'e

The Maid I lo'e.
[John Mitchell.—Here first printed.]
O! blithely smiles the moon when the glowring day's awa', And saft the balmy breeze creeps aroun' the Stanely shaw, And lightly o'er the moor I trip when night begins to fa' To meet Gleniffer's fairest flower, the maid I lo'e.
The bonnie bonnie rose, and the lily gemm'd wi' dew, The crawflower and the pink the gay summer will renew, But 'mid the winter's cauld mair than summer's flowers I pu' When I kiss the rosy lips o' her I lo'e.
Her e'e o' bonnie blue wi' the diamond may compare, Her teeth o' ivory tell the sweets that linger there, And on her brow sits majesty wreath'd in the raven hair That gracefully adorns the head o' her I lo'e.
I've heard the lark's clear sang ere the rosy e'e o' day Had from our smiling vales brushed the shades o' night away, But sweeter words fell on mine ear than minstrel's sweetest lay As I gaed owre the moor yestreen wi' her I lo'e.
Ill build a wee wee house, and I'll tak' my lassie hame, And I will fill't wi' wealth that the gowd we prize will shame I'll fill't wi' love's endearing joys, all else is but a name, Unworthy o' the charms that live in her I lo'e.
# The Book of Scottish Song/The Maid of Dunmore

The Maid of Dunmore.
A captive maid pined in the tow'r of Dunmore, Full high was its gate, closely barr'd was the door; Her sighs unregarded, her prison unknown. Far from kinsmen and lover she languished alone. ​But a little bird sang at this fair captives grate, And seem'd as it chirrup'd, to soften her fate. Ah! Flora, fair Flora,—ah! Flora Macdonald! Ah! Flora, the maid of Dunmore— The maid of Dunmore, the maid of Dunmore, Ah; weep for the maid, the maid of Dumnore!
The maid tied a note to this little bird's neck, And pointed to home, like a far distant speck. O'er land and o'er water away the bird flew, Sought kinsman and lover;—the courier they knew; But soon a brave knight burst the prison-house door, And rescued his bride from the tow'r of Dunmore. Ah! Flora, fair Flora,—ah! Flora Macdonald! Ah! Flora, the maid of Dunmore— The maid of Dunmore, the maid of Dunmore, Ah! joy to the maid, the maid of Dumnore!

Two young widows at a gambling resort, a discredited French count, and a married couple whose past is veiled in uncertainty are the dramatis personae. One of the widows mysteriously disappears, the count falls in love with the other one and she with him, while the married couple rub their hands smilingly at one side, with alert and covetous eyes fixed on the widow's pearl necklace. [...] It's no book for hours when all the house is still. —extract from the review in McClure's magazine, June 1912.

# The Chinese Classics/Volume 2/The Works of Mencius/2

1. Mencius, another day, saw King Hûi of Liang. The king went and stood with him by a pond, and, looking round at the large geese and deer, said, 'Do wise and good princes also find pleasure in these things?'
2. Mencius replied, 'Being wise and good, they have pleasure in these things. If they are not wise and good, though they have these things, they do not find pleasure.
3. 'It is said in the Book of Poetry,
He measured out and commenced his marvellous tower; He measured it out and planned it. The people addressed themselves to it, And in less than a day completed it. When he measured and began it, he said to them -- Be not so earnest: But the multitudes came as if they had been his children. The king was in his marvellous park; The does reposed about, The does so sleek and fat: And the white birds came glistening. The king was by his marvellous pond; How full was it of fishes leaping about!"
'King Wan used the strength of the people to make his tower and his pond, and yet the people rejoiced to do the work, calling the tower "the marvellous tower," calling the pond "the marvellous pond," and rejoicing that he had his large deer, his fishes, and turtles. The ancients caused the people to have pleasure as well as themselves, and therefore they could enjoy it.
4. 'In the Declaration of T'ang it is said, "O sun, when wilt thou expire? We will die together with thee." The people wished for Chieh's death, though they should die with him. Although he had towers, ponds, birds, and animals, how could he have pleasure alone?'
# The Chinese Classics/Volume 2/The Works of Mencius/6

Disappointment of Mencius with the king Hsiang. By whom the torn nation may be united under one sway.
1. Mencius went to see the king Hsiang of Liang.
2. On coming out from the interview, he said to some persons, 'When I looked at him from a distance, he did not appear like a sovereign; when I drew near to him, I saw nothing venerable about him. Abruptly he asked me, "How can the kingdom be settled?" I replied, "It will be settled by being united under one sway."
3. '"Who can so unite it?"
4. 'I replied, "He who has no pleasure in killing men can so unite it."
5. "'Who can give it to him?"
6. 'I replied, " All the people of the nation will unanimously give it to him. Does your Majesty understand the way of the growing grain? During the seventh and eighth months, when drought prevails, the plants become dry. Then the clouds collect densely in the heavens, they send down torrents of rain, and the grain erects itself, as if by a shoot. When it does so, who can keep it back? Now among the shepherds of men throughout the nation, there is not one who does not find pleasure in killing men. If there were one who did not find pleasure in killing men, all the people in the nation would look towards him with outstretched necks. Such being indeed the case, the people would flock to him, as water flows downwards with a rush, which no one can repress."

A continuation of the former chapter, carrying on the appeal, in the last paragraph, on the character of king Hû's own government.
1. King Hûi of Liang said, 'I wish quietly to receive your instructions.'
2. Mencius replied, 'Is there any difference between killing a man with a stick and with a sword ?' The king said, 'There is no difference!
3. 'Is there any difference between doing it with a sword and with the style of government? 'There is no difference,' was the reply.
4. Mencius then said, 'In your kitchen there is fat meat; in your stables there are fat horses. But your people have the look of hunger, and on the wilds there are those who have died of famine. This is leading on beasts to devour men.
5. 'Beasts devour one another, and men hate them for doing so. When a prince, being the parent of his people, administers his government so as to be chargeable with leading on beasts to devour men, where is his parental relation to the people?'
6. Chung-nî said, 'Was he not without posterity who first made wooden images to bury with the dead? So he said, because that man made the semblances of men, and used them for that purpose:-- what shall be thought of him who causes his people to die of hunger?'
