Excerpt from Popular Poetry of the Baloches, Vol. 1 Popular Poetry of the Baloches to a conclusion and laying before the Public the result of many years labour in collecting, transcribing and translating the ballads and verses here set forth, I have the greatest pleasure in acknowledging the action of the Folklore Society in issuing this book as the Annual Volume for 1905, and in thanking the Council and the Society for giving me the opportunity of publishing a work of this kind, which necessarily appeals to a limited public. My sincerest thanks are due also to the Royal Asiatic Society for its assistance and co-operation, without which it would have been impossible to include a complete collection of the original texts from which the English renderings are made. Without these texts the translations, the value of which depends mainly on the correctness of my interpretations, would have lost much of their value. To both Societies I now express my heartiest thanks for their kindness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
