'T. B. S.' [T. B. Simpson; Thomas Blantyre Simpson (1892-1954), author and Sheriff of Perth and Angus] [The King's Bodyguard for
Humorous Poem Two copies of the typescript of a humorous poem titled 'Lines Written in Contemplation of the King's Bodyguard for Scotland 1937.'
1937. One copy headed in manuscript: 'From T. B. SIMPSON 11/6/49.'. Each of the two typescripts is on one side of a piece of A4 paper. One is signed in type at end 'T. B.S.' and the other which appears to be mimeographed carries what is presumably Simpson's signature at head in the manuscript note: 'From T. B. SIMPSON 11/6/49.' Text of each clear and complete on creased and aged paper. Apart from the typed signature to the one copy and the fact that one copy has square brackets and the other curved the two texts are identical. The poem consists of six four-line stanzas with the first reading: 'Between the Palace and the Hill Behold the ranks of archers stand! They are not standing straight or still And yet the spectacle is grand.' The fifth stanza consists of some 'fragments of dialogue': '"Have you got heather-beetle still" "This year the plovers' eggs were late." "What do you think of Herbert's Bill" "My God! I've dropped my dental plate." In the last stanza 'the Monarch' is said to know 'That he is guarded by those bows Which few can hold and fewer draw.' 1937. [One copy headed in manuscript: 'From T. B. SIMPSON | 11/6/49.'] unknown

'The Recruiting Officer' [evangelical Christianity; handbills; Salvation Army; George Brimmer, London printer; G. and I. Offer,
Handbill; evangelical Handbill entitled 'The Recruiting Officer's Speech.'
c. 1818 London: Printed by G. Brimmer 15 Water-lane Fleet-street; and sold by G. and I. Offer Postern Row Tower Hill and J. Higham 6 Chiswell Street. On one side of a piece of unwatermarked wove paper 32 x 25 cm. Good on lightly aged and creased paper. Attractively produced within a decorative border with the title in gothic script and the text beginning in a single column before splitting into two. Printer's and publishers' details at foot with advertisement of five works published between 1815 and 1817. After three scriptural quotations begins 'ALL Sinners who are arrested by the HOLY SPIRIT tried in the Court of Conscience cursed and condemned by the just and holy law of God and in consequence thereof become willing to serve his Majesty JEHOVAH in the Royal Regiment of SAINTS and in CAPTAIN IMMANUEL's Company or NEW JERUSALEM where the company now lies; .'. Contains two poems: the first 26 lines beginning 'These soldiers are bold and well they may Since Christ their Captain leads the way;' and the second 16 lines 'GIRD thy loins up Christian Soldier Lo! thy Captain calls thee out;'. The central conceit of this piece - especially effective during the high militarisation resulting from the Napoleonic Wars - would later be taken to the ultimate extreme by the Salvation Army. A single copy of an earlier version produced in 1791 and with significant variations is held by the Bodleian. Excessively scarce: no copy on COPAC. According to BBTI Brimmer was active between 1802 and 1824 and George Offer no G. and I. Offer in Postern Row before 1794 and until 1824. [c. 1818] London: Printed by G. Brimmer, 15, Water-lane, Fleet-street; and sold by G. and I. Offer, Postern Row, Tower Hill, and unknown
