Lay of the Last Minstrel is a long narrative poem written by Sir Walter Scott and published in 1805. The poem tells the story of the love between Lady Margaret and Lord Cranstoun, which is threatened by a feud between their families. The minstrel, who sings the tale, is the last of his kind and is invited to perform at the wedding of Margaret and Cranstoun. The poem is set in the Scottish Borders and features supernatural elements such as witches and fairies. It is written in six cantos, each with its own distinct theme and structure. The poem is considered a masterpiece of Romantic literature and is known for its vivid descriptions of nature and its use of Scottish dialect.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
