I have made good some typographical blunders, for which, of course, the au- thor was not responsible, but may I be privileged to say a word or two as to the subject matter of the effusion itself. The twenty-third Psalm is the twenty-third Psalm, or it is nothing. It says justth it means or it means nothing. The line closing the second rstanza- (I guess that's tkoteh)---"An brings me heme an' tr"'-9tertuly "and brings me home and all!” Where is there sense or poetry in that jargon. except, possibly after a St. Andrew's night celebration? In the next verse we can pass over the "Fin' I ken He is near," but his "muekle erook" is a staggerer that will knock all Canadian Sentehmen out of business. And then when "wolves and' dogs' are brought in to intensify the situation, the Scotch versionist must have been fairly driven to his wits' ends to horrify this, other. wise magnificent theme. Wolves and dogs prowling about through the beau. tiful sentiment of the twenty-third Psalm ought to frighten a Srotclunan or anyone else. "humid is aye unrcelin' a pirn aboot Christ.
