Excerpt from Poems

George Sinclair was born November 27, 1863, in the Village of Dollar, Clackmannanshire, Scotland. Dollar stands on the river Devon, which a few miles further west ¿ows into the Forth, near the town of Stirling. It occupies the centre of a valley of singular beauty, being within sight of the Ochil Hills to the north and of Stirling Castle to the west. The scenes around are classic - the old battle-ground of Scottish history. The very soil is impulsive with song, of which the ancient strains continue to-resound in every patriot heart, the whole mete nurse for a poetic child.
