"EYE OF THE BRAIN AND HEART, O GENIUS, INNER sight,-THOMAS AIRD) 'I, BEAUTY, DWELL WITH HIM WHO MADE GREEN EARTH,-(AIRD) THE GOLDEN BOOK OF ENGLISH SONG. Thomas Aird. [THOMAS AIRD was born at Bowden, in Roxburghshire, August 28, 1802; educated at the University of Edinburgh; and in 1835 appointed editor of the Dumfries Herald, a post which he held until 1863. His chief works are his "Religious Characteristics," published in 1827; "The Old Bachelor in the Old Scottish Village," 1845; and his "Poems," collected in 1848. Of these the most remarkable are "The Devil's Dream on Mount Aksbeck," and the "Demoniac," which are characterized by a wild, lurid splendour of language and imagery. Many of his minor pieces are very graceful and melodious.] MY MOTHER'S GRAVE. RISE, and sit in soft attire! Wait but to know my soul's desire! To cheer thee in a thousand ways! A crown of brightest stars to thee! THE PICTURED SEASONS, AND THE HOSTS OF HEAVEN." T. AIRD. WONDERS FROM THE FAMILIAR START IN THY DECISIVE LIGHT."-T. AIRD. "SFE THE PURPLE PASSAGE RISE.-MANY-ARCHED OF CENTURIES THOMAS AIRD) 2 66 LABOUR, ART, WORSHIP, LOVE, THESE MAKE MAN'S LIfe!"—aird. THOMAS AIRD. And nurse thy waning light, in faith Then tarry on thy bowing shore, I came not, and I cry to save Thy life from the forgetful grave I'd tell thee where my youth has been; But bow before thy solemn tears. Come, walk with me and see fair Earth, Men wonder till I pass away, To kiss the head I cannot save. REST AFTER TOH, SWEET HEALING AFTER PAIN."-THOMAS AIRD. GENIUS BUILT IT LONG AND VAST. AND O'ER IT SOCIAL KNOWLEDGE passed."-AIRD. |
