PREFACE
This collection of Modern Gaelic Poetry forms a
companion volume to Rosg Gdidhlig, published in 1915.
Its contents are but a small fraction of the body of
such poetry that awaits editing. The Notes are mainly
historical. The Vocabulary has been drawn up with
care, and contains a good deal of illustrative material
derived from sources other than the text. Indexes of
Persons and Places were prepared, but have been with¬
held owing to scarcity of paper. The want of the
former will be less felt in view of the help given in the
Notes, and by the kind arrangement of the Editor of
An Deo Greine, the Index of Places will appear in that
magazine early in 1919. I am indebted to my wife and
to the Reverend Malcolm MacLennan, D.D., for help
with the proofs.
