VII.—THE GARB OF OLD GAUL.
(From the _Glasgow Herald_, April 7, 1900).
“Oh first of garbs! garment of happy fate,
So long employed, of such an antique date,
Look back some thousand years till records fail,
And lose themselves in some romantic tale;
We’ll find our god-like fathers nobly scorned
To be by any other dress adorned.”
—_Allan Ramsay._
