I love wolfhounds, but no, this is a Golden Doodle named Bilbo.

You can’t make this stuff up.

Brahms: 2 Songs for Alto, Viola & Piano, Op. 91

These are two late masterpieces with the unusual accompaniment of viola and piano. The second of these songs is an annual Publius post for Christmas. Both are heartbreakers. The poet for the first song is Rückert, and the second is Geibel.

Brahms: “Gestillte Sehnsucht”, Op. 91/1

Brahms: “Geistliches Wiegenlied”, Op. 91/2

"O Wert Thou In The Cauld Blast"
Robert Burns
Sung by Jean Redpath
(Click)

O wert thou in the cauld blast,
On yonder lea, on yonder lea,
My plaidie to the angry airt,
I'd shelter thee, I'd shelter thee;
Or did Misfortune's bitter storms
Around thee blaw, around thee blaw,
Thy bield should be my bosom,
To share it a', to share it a'.

Or were I in the wildest waste,
Sae bleak and bare, sae bleak and bare,
The desert were a Paradise,
If thou wert there, if thou wert there;
Or were I Monarch o' the globe,
Wi' thee to reign, wi' thee to reign,
The brightest jewel in my Crown
Wad be my Queen, wad be my Queen.

"Riamh nár dhruid ó sbairn lann!"

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
