Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Poems of William Dunbar, Vol. 1: First Collected and Published in the Year 1834; Supplement

I regret, for the credit of literature, that here I cannot avoid mentioning a most cool and impudent attempt at appropriation of the contents of these volumes which was published a few years ago, called The Life and Poems of William Dunbar. 1 abstain from any remarks on such a compilation.[262] In order to satisfy the frequent and urgent demand (as the volumes, when they occurred for sale, usually fetched an extravagant price), these reserved copies are now re-issued in their original form, with no other alteration than the addition of the following pages. I sincerely wish that such additions had been more numerous, but I feel glad in being enabled to recover even these two or three poems of Dunbar which had hitherto escaped notice.

Of this Supplement separate Oopies are provided for the benefit of those who may already possess the work.
