Poem On Pastoral Poetry (第1/1页)
poem on pastoral poetry hail, poesie! thou nymph reserv'd! in chase o' thee, what crowds hae swerv'd frae on sense, or sunk enerv'd 'mang heaps o' clavers: and och! o'er aft thy joes hae starv'd, 'mid a' thy favours! say, lassie, why, thy train amang, while loud the trump's heroic g, and sock or buskin skelp alang to death or marriage; scare has tried the shepherd—sang but wi' miscarriage? in homer's craft jock milton thrives; eschylus' pen will shakespeare drives; wee pope, the knurlin', till him rives horatian fame; in thy sweet sang, barbauld, survives even sappho's flame. but thee, theocritus, wha matches? they're no herd's ballats, maro's catches; squire pope but busks his skinklin' patches o' heathen tatters: i pass by hunders, nameless wretches, that ape their betters. in this braw age o' wit and lear, will he shepherd's whistle mair blaw sweetly in its native air, and rural grace; and, wi' the far-fam'd gre, share a rival place? yes! there is ane—a scottish callan! there's ane; e forrit, ho allan! thou need na jouk behint the hallan, a chiel sae clever; the teeth o' time may gnaw tantallan, but thou's for ever. thou paints auld nature to the nines, in thy sweet caledonian lines; nae gowden stream thro' myrtle twines, where philomel, while nightly breezes sweep the vines, her griefs will tell! in gowany glens thy burrays, where bonie lasses bleach their claes, or trots by hazelly shaws and braes, wi' hawthray, where blackbirds join the shepherd's lays, at close o' day. thy rural loves are nature's sel'; nae bombast spates o' nonsense swell; nae snap ceits, but that sweet spell o' wit love, that charm that the stro quell, the ster move.
