Summary "English Songs and Ballads" by T. W. H. Crosland is a collection of poetic works compiled in the early 20th century. This anthology brings together a variety of English songs and ballads that are presumably well known and highlights the general taste of its time. The collection aims to provide readers with a diverse array of lyrical poetry reflecting love, adventure, and human experience, featuring both famous authors and anonymous works. The opening of the collection sets the stage by introducing a well-structured index of first lines from the poems featured within. This index not only provides easy navigation but also showcases the extensive range of themes present in the poems, from love and nature to tales of valor and loss. The initial poems delve into sentiments of love and loss, illustrated by lyrical expressions that embody the emotional landscape of both individual experiences and broader humanistic themes. The opening clearly establishes the anthology as a vibrant testament to the rich tradition of English lyrical poetry. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
