With the help of Kaway Thara Bo Bo Gyi (lit.-grandfather, a title given to old and learned person) the youngest sister Saw Nan Mu’s soul was put into a gourd and was buried under the sea. In resentment queen Nagasena informed King Alaungsithu about her bad dream.She dreamt that the five siblings were going to seize the throne.

Having no heart to kill his own sister, both of them ran away and fell into a chasm and died. As their death was caused by the king of Bagan, Saw Nan Mu decided to revenge. She intended to destroy Bagan and on her way she met Sakka (king of celestial deities) who stopped her. Sakka asked her occult arts as an offering to him.

Scott contextualizes the ballads as products of this unique frontier society, shaped by its semi-lawless conditions and fierce local loyalties. He defends the literary merit of traditional ballads and the importance of preserving oral tradition, while also acknowledging the editorial challenges of balancing authenticity with intelligibility for a modern readership. The introduction reflects Scott’s dual role as both antiquarian and poet, blending scholarly insight with romantic nationalism to frame the ballads not merely as curiosities, but as vital expressions of the Scottish historical imagination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight approximately 2025g unpacked (the set).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApprox Dimensions: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach volume approximately 213mm high x 139mm wide x c. 35mm deep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lanna Antique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54479814394241,"sku":"LAN9821","price":400.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/0351\/9943\/files\/MinstrelsyoftheScottishBorder_ConsistingofHistoricalandRomanticPoets_WalterScott_Secondedition_Edinburgh_1803IMG_9542.jpg?v=1752746883"},{"product_id":"the-gentle-shepherd-a-scots-pastoral-comedy-allan-ramsay-john-robertson-glasgow-1758","title":"The Gentle Shepherd, A Scots Pastoral Comedy, Allan Ramsay, John Robertson, Glasgow, 1758","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"237\" data-end=\"790\"\u003eAllan Ramsay’s \u003cem data-start=\"252\" data-end=\"273\"\u003eThe Gentle Shepherd\u003c\/em\u003e is a cornerstone of 18th‑century Scottish literature, widely celebrated as the nation’s first major pastoral drama. First performed in 1725, the play combines rustic humour, romantic intrigue, and a vivid portrayal of Lowland rural life, written in a rich Scots dialect that captures the cultural voice of its era. Its enduring popularity lies in its ability to balance literary refinement with folk authenticity, influencing both the Scottish Enlightenment’s literary culture and later poets such as Robert Burns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"792\" data-end=\"1521\"\u003eThis 1758 Glasgow edition, printed by John Robertson Jr., is an appealing example of an early provincial printing, adorned with five engraved plates illustrating each act, along with musical overtures to the songs and a complete Scots glossary. Surviving examples of mid‑18th‑century Glasgow editions are increasingly scarce, especially with the full complement of plates present, as these popular pocket editions were often heavily read and imperfectly preserved. While this copy shows age and wear—with a weak binding, lower loss to the title page, and expected marks of use—it remains a desirable and characterful survivor, offering insight into Scotland’s early literary heritage and book trade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Gentle Shepherd, A Scots Pastoral Comedy.
