DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The Minstrel; or the Progress of Genius with some other poems By James Beattie I. Ah! who can tell how hard it is to climbThe steep, where Fame's proud temple shines afar!Ah! who can tell how many a soul sublimeHas felt the influence of malignant star, And waged with Fortune an eternal war!Checked by the scoff of Pride, by Envy's frown, And Poverty's unconquerable bar, In life's low vale remote has pined alone, Then dropt into the grave, unpitied and unknown! II. And yet, the languor of inglorious daysNot equally oppressive is to all.Him, who ne'er listened to the voice of praise, The silence of neglect can ne'er appal.There are, who, deaf to mad Ambition's call, Would shrink to hear th' obstreperous trump of Fame;Supremely blest, if to their portion fallHealth, competence, and peace. Nor higher aimHad He, whose simple tale these artless lines proclaim. III. This sapient age disclaims all classic lore;Else I should here, in cunning phrase, display, How forth The Minstrel fared in days of yore, Right glad of heart, though homely in array;His waving locks and beard all hoary grey: And, from his bending shoulder, decent hungHis harp, the sole companion of his way, Which to the whistling wind responsive rung: And ever as he went some merry lay he sung. IV. Fret not yourselves, ye silken sons of pride, That a poor Wanderer should inspire my strain.The Muses fortune's fickle smile deride, Nor ever bow the knee in Mammon's fane;For their delights are with the village-train, Whom Nature's laws engage, and Nature's charms: They hate the sensual, and scorn the vain;The parasite their influence never warms, Nor him whose sordid soul the love of wealth alarms. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The Minstrel's Tale, and Other Poems The operations of the human mind are ever worthy our study, for by the various connexious of being, we are interested in whatever developes the character, or influences the heart. By the expression of others' feelings, we are enabled to form a judgement of our own; and whatever awakens a sympathy within us must tend to invigorate the intellectual faculties, and expand the sphere of our existence; blending soul with soul into one undivided being, having gratifications ever equal to the growing grasp of its conceptions. Education is but sympathy - a sense of others feelings and ideas, stimulating the dormant susceptibilities of our hearts and minds; and begetting, not merely, imitation, but a similarity of sentiment, by which we really become new and improved creatures, provided the innate tendencies be properly directed.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The Minstrel's Inspiration: And Other Poems I caught a vision, through passing time, From which my spirit life, was fed; That thoughts, in poetry I could rhyme, That became to be, my daily bread. For it was Aristotle, who wisely said, It is not the function of the Poet, To relate what happened, to be led, But what may, is his merit. Then the greatest and wisest thing to me Are not, of this life as it is. But, a knowledge of what might be; Of the passions and sympathies. There is a vision of the spirit that's sublime, That's been called a mystery; Of the harmony of love, that divine, That's a fact, and not a theory. C. F.

Ah, precious hearth where, pure as air, The soul may soar, the heart from care Be free; where, night and morning, Both thought and footstep flying fare With ceaseless yearning! Seek, youth, such dearly sacred haunt! With joy awaited, Rebaptized at affection's font, Thy comfort and thine every want By love anticipated, Thy path a fragrant homage strewing, To higher aims thy spirit wooing; Where lofty souls admire thee, In all thy thinking and thy doing Nobly inspire thee. If in youth's vague, impetuous ways This boon be thine, Oh, sing its praise! And art thou of the gifted, Oh, sing it through thy nights and days, With voice uplifted!
