Excerpt from The Romance of Robert Burns: A Pastoral of the Present and Drama of Days Lang Syne A fiction, fable - call it what you will - herein becomes a fact! We wise Americans periodically sit down and figuratively "bay the moon with howling" for An American Romance! This done, we wag our heads and wait and watch, and, when the victim our lament has lured, comes from his lair, we read his tag and note the ear-marks of the "Common Cry," and if he's of the mongrel breed that feeds on scraps and refuse stuff - the realistic carrion which so many crave whose tastes are high - or broods on second-hand and threadbare things, we greet him with a recognizing sniff and let him pass - but if he's of the Royal Lion's blood and has ideal dreams of something lying still beyond our sight, and in temerity attempts to overleap tho barrier by which we hedge him in, why then let loose the pack. We dog him down and seize and rend and tear until there is not left the wherewithal to tell tho tale! This, sad to say, is not American romance, but simple, sober, solemn fact.
