page 211 note 1 I wonder if anyone has examined the Delitiae poetarum Scotorum (Amsterdam, Blaeu, 2 vols., 1637) with an anthological view ? Most of them are too long, and occupied with controversial theology, but some epigrams by John Maitland (Thirlestane) and Thomas Maitland of Lethington would bear reprinting.

page 212 note 1 I wonder that Professor Harrington did not mention Jackson and Preble's book (Chicago, 1910) on this poem.

page 212 note 2 Let me correct a grievous mistake in the footnote to p. 371. Professor Harrington prints certain words and phrases in single quotation marks, saying: ‘It is not altogether clear on what principle these (accent or stress ?) marks are employed here and there in these songs, whether they apply always to musical accent or sometimes to rhetorical emphasis.’ The explanation is much simpler, and is given by Schmeller himself, when on pp. 257 ff. of his edition he supplies a list of Lectiones codicis, quarum loco editor Mas quae signis' inclusae cernuntur conjecturales substitute.
