Excerpt from Old English Ballads U'nlike the earlier collections of ballads, this little vol ume is offered to the public without apology for the poems; they have long since established themselves in the body Of our literature. Many teachers, however, have been unable to put them into the hands Of their pupils for want Of a cheap yet faith ful text, and this edition is offered in the hope of answering such a need. The little trouble necessary for mastering the somewhat antiquated forms Of the language will be amply repaid by the fuller knowledge that will be gained of the real thought and feeling Of our ancestors.

There are many poems which tell stories, but are written without any idea of being sung, like Evangeline, and these we do not call ballads either. But in the early days of literature poetry is commonly sung, or recited in something of a sing-song way, and it generally tells a story be cause in the early days people are more interested in stories than in other forms of poetry. As people grow more and more cultivated, their poems are written down so that they no longer have the character that comes from being written for'musio, and as time goes on people have wider mterests in literature and care for other things in poetry than stories.
