"There are in the book many charming lyrical poems which ... show always the sentiment of a latter-day singer playing sweetly and gracefully round the sempiternal themes of poetry. The two Comedies are clever, simple, and fresh. The book will be read with especial interest by lovers of Poetry who favour Scottish themes."—The Scotsman.

"The author has talent; his work flows easily and 'lets itself be read.'"—The Birmingham Post.

"... A good deal in the vein of Burns. The author is a pleasant versifier."—The Times.

"The poems show distinct lyrical faculty. The author's management of various metres is throughout true and musical."—Aberdeen Daily Journal.

"These poems treat of the common interests of daily life ... appeal to a wide audience, and are sure to give widespread pleasure."—Aberdeen Free Press.
