            Did you know there are Dr Seuss versions of some HP Lovecraft books?

            I did not.

            The options for watching this online are Amazon or Google, neither of which is a good option. If anybody knows a better source let me know in the comments.

            I wish more people would move to Peertube...but I guess monetization is more important than getting their work out here.

                  The Authorship of the “Canadian Boat — Song”:  A Bibliographical Note

by Linda Dowler

From its first, anonymous appearance in Blackwood’s Magazine for September, 1829, the “Canadian Boat Song” has tantalized its admirers, for the question of its authorship has remained an unsolved puzzle. The literature which has been generated by the problem of attribution is consid erable; the following, while not attempting an exhaustive bibliographical listing, will trace the major turns of the argument as it has appeared in print. There are, in all, eight names in the list of those for whom the laurel of authorship has been claimed. They will be reviewed here in the order in which they were entered.

                                          The White Swan
Donald MacDonald

Sad I consider my condition
With my heart engaged with sorrow
From the very time that I left
The high bens of the mist
The little glens of dalliance
Of the lochs, the bays and the forelands
And the white swan dwelling there
Whom I daily pursue.

Maggie, don’t be sad
Love, if I should die –
Who among men
Endures eternally?
We are all only on a journey
Like flowers in the deserted cattle fold
That the year’s elements will bring down
And that the sun cannot raise.

All the ground around me
Is like hail in the heavens;
With the shells exploding –
I am blinded by smoke:
My ears are deafened
By the roar of the cannon;
But though this time is hard on me,
My thoughts are on the girl MacLeod.

If it is fated to me
That from the battle I should return safe,
And see the place
Where we were nurtured young
We’ll shake hands
And warm lips shall kiss
And my promise be fulfilled to you
With a ring put round your finger.

Goodnight to you, love
In your warm, sweet-smelling bed;
May you have peaceful sleep and
May you waken healthy and in good spirits
I am here in the cold trench
With the clamour of death in my ears
With no hope of returning victorious –
The ocean is too wide to swim.

Maggie, don’t be sad Love, if I should die – Who among men Endures eternally? We are all only on a journey Like flowers in the deserted cattle fold That the year’s elements will bring down And that the sun cannot raise. All the ground around me Is like hail in the heavens; With the shells exploding – I am blinded by smoke: My ears are deafened By the roar of the cannon; But though this time is hard on me, My thoughts are on the girl MacLeod. If it is fated to me That from the battle I should return safe, And see the place Where we were nurtured young We’ll shake hands And warm lips shall kiss And my promise be fulfilled to you With a ring put round your finger. Goodnight to you, love In your warm, sweet-smelling bed; May you have peaceful sleep and May you waken healthy and in good spirits I am here in the cold trench With the clamour of death in my ears With no hope of returning victorious – The ocean is too wide to swim.

                                            “An Eala Bhan” (“The White Swan”) has been performed by a huge number of Gaelic artists from Julie Fowlis to Capercallie & Linda Macleod who grew up in the same part of North Uist as Dòmhnall Ruadh Chorùna. She speaks here to Cathy McDonald about the significance of the song and the man behind it

                                              Mountains divide us, and the waste of seas—

                                              Canadian Boat-Song—(from the Gaelic.)

Listen to me, as when ye heard our father
‍‍‍‍‍‍Sing long ago, the song of other shores—
Listen to me, and then in chorus gather
‍‍‍‍‍‍All your deep voices, as ye pull your oars:
CHORUS
‍‍‍‍‍‍Fair these broad meads—these hoary woods are grand;
‍‍‍‍‍‍But we are exiles from our fathers’ land.

From the lone shieling of the misty island
‍‍‍‍‍‍Mountains divide us, and the waste of seas—
Yet still the blood is strong, the heart is Highland,
‍‍‍‍‍‍And we in dreams behold the Hebrides:
‍‍‍‍‍‍Fair these broad meads—these hoary woods are grand;
‍‍‍‍‍‍But we are exiles from our fathers’ land.

We ne’er shall tread the fancy-haunted valley,
‍‍‍‍‍‍Where ’tween the dark hills creeps the small clear stream,
In arms around the patriarch banner rally,
‍‍‍‍‍‍Nor see the moon on royal tombstones gleam:
‍‍‍‍‍‍Fair these broad meads—these hoary woods are grand;
‍‍‍‍‍‍But we are exiles from our fathers’ land.

When the bold kindred, in the time long-vanish’d,
‍‍‍‍‍‍Conquer’d the soil and fortified the keep—
No seer foretold the children would be banish’d,
‍‍‍‍‍‍That a degenerate Lord might boast his sheep:
‍‍‍‍‍‍Fair these broad meads—these hoary woods are grand;
‍‍‍‍‍‍But we are exiles from our fathers’ land.

Come foreign rage—let Discord burst in slaughter!
‍‍‍‍‍‍O then for clansman true, and stern claymore—
The hearts that would have given their blood like water,
‍‍‍‍‍‍Beat heavily beyond the Atlantic roar:
‍‍‍‍‍‍Fair these broad meads—these hoary woods are grand;
‍‍‍‍‍‍But we are exiles from our fathers’ land.
