verse which shows that Scotland has yet a poet. Full of the true

cadences sad and wild as the wail of a Highland

By W. EDMONDSTOUNE AYTOUN, D.C.L. Third Edition. Fcap. 8vo, 7s. 6d.

Scotland, and no Editor for these Ballads could be found more
accomplished than Professor Aytoun. He has sent forth two beautiful
volumes which range with 'Percy's Reliques'--which, for
completeness and accuracy, leave little to be desired--which must
henceforth be considered as the standard edition of the Scottish
Ballads, and which we commend as a model to any among ourselves who
may think of doing like service to the English
Ballads."--_Times._
