Goldgepr. Originalleinen. Condizione: Sehr gut. 315 S. Einband u. einige S. lose; Gebrauchsspuren, einige S. fleckig. - Aus dem Nachlaß von Michael Richter. - Beiliegt: handschriftl. Index der Lieder bis S. 258 durch Michael Richter. - FOR A' THAT (page 84).-Burns wrote this song in 1794. Mr Stenhouse remarks that this song ' un…fortunately came out at a period when political disputes ran very high, and his enemies did not fail to interpret every sentence of it to his prejudice. That he was the zealous friend of rational and constitutional freedom will not be denied, but that he entertained principles hostile to the safety of the State no honest man that knew him will ever venture to maintain. In fact, what happened to Burns has happened to most men of genius. During times of public commotion there are always to be found vile and dastardly scoundrels, who, to render themselves favourites with those in power, and push their own selfish views of interest and ambition, are ever ready to calumniate the characters and misrepresent the motives and actions of their neighbours, however good, innocent, or meritorious.' / Beranger, the French poet, said, ' This song was a song not for an age, but an eternity.' / The authorship of the air cannot be traced. / GLOOMY WINTER'S NOO AWA' (page 100).-The following account of the origin of this song is given in a small book entitled 'The harp of Renfrewshire,' published in Paisley in 1819. It forms a portion of a letter written by E. A. Smith, who was an / intimate friend of the poet: ' Miss -----, of-----, was particularly / fond of the Scottish melody " Lord Balgownie's Favourite," and had expressed a wish to see it united to good poetry. I accordingly applied to my friend (Tannahill), who produced his song, "Gloomy Winter's noo awa'" in a few days. As soon as I had arranged the air, with symphonies and accompaniment for the pianoforte, I waited on the lady, who was much delighted with the verses, and begged of me to invite the author to take a walk with me to the house at any leisure time. I knew that it would be almost impossible to prevail on Eobert to allow himself to be introduced by fair means: so for once I made use of the only alternative in my power, by beguiling him thither during our first Saturday's ramble, under the pretence of being obliged to call with some music I had with me for the ladies. This, however, could not be effected till I had promised not to make him known, in case any of the family came to / the door. But how great was his astonishment when Miss----- / came forward to invite him into the house by name ! I shall never forget the awkwardness with which he accompanied us to the music room. He sat as it were quite petrified, till the magic of the music and the great affability of the ladies reconciled him to his situation. / In a short time Mr------came in, was introduced to his visitor in / due form, and with that goodness of heart and simplicity of manner for which he is so deservedly esteemed by all who have the pleasure of knowing him, chatted with his guest till near dinner-time, when / Eobert again became terribly uneasy, as Mr-----insisted on our / staying to dine with the family. Many a rueful look was cast to me, and many an excuse was made to get away; but, alas! there was no escaping with a good grace; and finding that I was little inclined to understand his signals, the kind request was at length reluctantly complied with. After a cheerful glass or two, the restraint he was under gradually wore away, and he became tolerably communicative. I believe that when we left the mansion, the poet entertained very different sentiments from those with which he had entered it. He had formed an opinion that nothing save distant pride and cold formality was to be met with from people in the higher walks of life; but on experiencing the very reverse of his / imaginings, he was quite delighted; and when Mr-----'s name / happened to be mentioned in his hearing afterwards, it generally called forth expressions of respect.
