Page:Folk-lore - A Quarterly Review. Volume 4, 1893.djvu/395

 Rh exquisite little volume devoted to the love-songs of Connaught which Dr. Hyde has just brought out, the oneness of the Celtic genius throughout the reach of centuries, as well as its unique and penetrating charm, are borne in upon the mind with irresistible force. The Celtic folk-muse greets us from Dr. Hyde's pages like one of her own heroines:

Whoso has tasted those kisses, whoso has heard her fairy-song, like Connla Ruad, will not stay afar from her, but if he may, will follow and dwell with her in the land where she is queen.
