Every honeymoon has a man in it.
Carlyle and Burns.
Men who were young a generation
ago, and who then read Carlyle, have
the great advantage of having been
familiar in their plastic and susceptible
years with one of the noblest pleas that
one man of genius ever made for an
other, in Carlyle’s essay upon Bums.
They were countryman, one born as the
other died. Both had the deep, strong,
melancholy nature which is nurtured by
the misty coasts and solitary mountains
and moors of Scotland. Both, too, had
the immense vitality, the Berserker
humor, the thorough manliness of the
Northern genius. As one reads the
works of Carlyle, and inarks his impa
tience of shams, and effeminacy, ami
equivocation, and conventional molali
ties, and hears his loud satiric laughter
dying into a wail of pathos and entreaty,
it is easy to feel that he saw the sound
hearty man he longs and prays for gone
astray in Robert Burns.
Such sweetness and grace and strength
and tenderness! Such soft, pathetic,
penetrating melody, as if ull the sadness
of shaggy Scotland had found a voice !
Such roistering jovial humor, excessive;
daring, unbridled !—a charm so univer
sal that it drew men from their beds in
taverns at midnight, to listen, delighted,
until dawn. Here was a fullness of
simple, native, massive manhood, not I
trained by the schools, not manipulated '
by the dancing master and the professor j
of single-stick, overflowing bounds, j
shocking the proprieties, defying the
rules, guilty of offenses thqt cannot be
excused, and for which he paid the pen
alty. It fascinated and captivated the
sad, grim, infinitely tender and manly
and pure genius of Carlyle; and he has
interpreted, as no other man has essayed
to interpret, the wild, wistful, touching
and tragical story qf Ijebevt Burns.—
