The Works of The Ettrick Shepherd | ||
Alike to him the south or north,
So high he held the minstrel worth;
So high his ardent mind was wrought,
Once of himself he scarcely thought.
Dear to his heart the strain sublime,
The strain admired in ancient time;
And of his minstrel honours proud,
He strung his harp too high, too loud.
So high he held the minstrel worth;
So high his ardent mind was wrought,
Once of himself he scarcely thought.
Dear to his heart the strain sublime,
The strain admired in ancient time;
And of his minstrel honours proud,
He strung his harp too high, too loud.
