Excerpt from Pollok Aytoun
Pollok rose from Obscurity in one flash, and then died, and is now forgotten Aytoun's life was spread over the first half of the century he rose to gradual recognition, and his name remains where he left it. Pollok's one poem was an epic, on a religious theme, austere and tragic in its treatment Aytoun's subjects were all not only of this world, but mostly of that part of this world that the author himself surveyed, and surveyed through kindly eyes that saw and loved the genial and the ludicrous.
