A satirical verse parody, "The Gentle Shepherd: A New Scots Pastoral," printed in Vanity Fair in March 1860. It lampoons a New York newspaper editor, called Jamie or Jeems, in mock-pastoral couplets and a Scots-dialect dialogue between Old Jamie and Young Jamie. It has nothing to do with textiles or weaving.
