BURNS'S LETTERS.
THE LETTERS OF ROBERT BURNS,
SELECTED AND ARRANGED,
WITH AN INTRODUCTION,
Y J. LOGIE ROBERTSON, M.A.
"You shall write whatever comes first,—what you see, what you read, what you hear, what you admire, what you dislike; trifles, bagatelles, nonsense, or, to fill up a corner, e'en put down a laugh at full length"—Burns.
"My life reminded me of a ruined temple: what strength, what proportion in some parts! what unsightly gaps, what prostrate ruin in others!"—Burns.
