Robert Nicoll

1814 - 1837 Author of "An offering to the shrine of pow'r" in Jubilate Deo Nicoll, Robert, was born Jan. 7, 1814, at Auchtergaven, Perthshire. At the age of 13 he began to write verse. In 1835 he opened a circulating library in Dundee, and in the following year he became the editor of the Leeds Times. This he retained for a short time only. Broken in health through taxing his strength too much, he died in 1837, He was a successful writer, and is often referred to as "a second Burns." His Poems and Lyrics were published in 1835; 2nd ed., with numerous additions and Memoir, 1842; 3rd ed. 1852. From these Poems the following pieces are taken:— 1. An offering to the shrine of power. The Reformers. 2. I may not scorn the meanest thing. Humility. This and No. 1 date 1835. 3. Lord, from Thy blessed throne, (People's Anthem.) (1842.) --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, Appendix, Part II (1907)
