Excerpt from Dialogues, Poems, Songs, and Ballads: By Various Writers, in the Westmoreland and Cumberland Dialects, Now First Collected; With a Copious Glossary of Words Peculiar to Those Coutries Among the poetical pieces contained in this vo lume, will be found all the pastorals written in the Cumberland Dialect by the Rev. Josiah Relph, and a considerable number of the best of Anderson's ballads. Most of the other pieces in verse have been sehnned, not so nnnfli on account of any poetical excellence which they may possess, as on account of their appearing to be best adapted to illustrate the manners and dialect of the county. From the general rule which the publisher laid down for his guidance in this respect, the first of the songs written by Miss Blamire, at page 306, is an exception. It is given solely on account of its poetical merits. In simplicity, feeling, and imagin ation, the second stanza has seldom been surpassed.
