POPULAR POETRY.-.-Sir PHILIP SIDNEY
said, that one of the old ballads of England, though re-
peated only by a poor blind beggar, !shook his fpirdeloorn
than the blast of a trumpet. And for .ourselves, we.must
Confess that we have no.recollections more vivid--none
More delightful than those
.which arc associated with the
minstrelsy' of nations. Human happiness, spread over, the
nta:ises of mankind, is, of all objects, the most touchingly
beautiful; and hinnan happiness, decorated as it were-with
ali the adornings of music and poetry, has something in .it
tvhich, if it .reaches not the sublime, is -close !upon .the
borders of sublimity. The preservation of popular song,
from generation to generation, is in itself an evidence of
its innate value. Men take no care of that which they-do
not esteem ; and some merit or other must attach to those
compositions which are treasured ,up- in .the memorise, -
vibrate through the bosoms, and sound swestly.bi the ears
of countless tribes, or spread through countless tongues._
7 hey are instructive, from their. moral influmersiven
though their poetical excellence should be questioned. ,xn
the day of national adversity, they become rallying points
for patriotism and freedom-seeking ezeOlort,: ;TiKusla„ti*ci
