Note †. The Highlander is paralleled by an Indian in The Observations of Sir Richard Hawkins, Markham, The Hawkins’ Voyages, Hakluyt Society, p. 243, and by Mordred in Malory’s Morte Darthur, ed. Sommer, Bk 21, ch. 4. G. L. K.
168. Flodden Field.
P. 351 b (12, lapt all in leather), IV, 507 a. The dying witch of Berkeley says to her children: Insuite me corio cervino, deinde in sarcophago lapideo supinate, operculum plumbo et ferro constringite. William of Malmesbury, Gesta Regum Anglorum, ed. Stubbs, Bk 2, I, 254, § 204.
169. Johnie Armstrong.
[P. 367. Johnie’s plain speech to the king. So in Li Charrois de Nymes, v. 283, in Jonkbloet, Guillaume d’Orange, I, 80: “Et dit Guillaumes, ‘Dans rois, vos i mentez.’”]
367, and note. The Baron of Brackley’s son (No 203), set on the nurse’s knee, uses nearly the same words as Johnie Armstrong’s in B, 24. M. Gaidoz, Mélusine, VII, 70, cites from Hone the passage in No 54 (B, 5, 6, see also A, 5, 6, D, 4, 5), in which Jesus speaks from his mother’s womb. See further Mélusine, IV, 447, V, 36, 257, VI, 92.
170. The Death of Queen Jane.
P. 372-6. Appendix. ‘The Duke of Bedford,’ Longman’s Magazine, XVII, 217, 1890, “sent from Suffolk,” is one half (sts 5-8) a plagiarism from ‘The Death of Queen Jane.’ Compare A, 5, 6, B, 8, C, 5, 6, D 6 of Queen Jane with what follows. The remainder of ‘The Duke of Bedford’ is so trivial that it is not worth the while at present to assign that piece its own place. I have not attempted to identify this duke of Bedford; any other duke would probably answer as well.
THE DUKE OF BEDFORD.
