Sir John Davies.

Epigrammes and Elegies. By I. D. and C. M. At Middleborough, [1590]. —Translations and original poems by John Davies; translations of Ovid by Christopher Marlowe.

Gawin (or Gavin) Douglas.

We hope no Scots will be offended by our including a Scot among the English poets. We take no position on the question of whether Scots be a "language" or a "dialect"—a meaningless distinction outside the realm of politics—but any English-speaker who can read Chaucer should be able to read Douglas as well.

Virgil's Aeneis, translated into Scottish verse, by the famous Gawin Douglas Bishop of Dunkeld. A new edition. Wherein the many errors of the former are corrected, and the defects supply'd, from an excellent manuscript. To which is added a large glossary, explaining the difficult words: which may serve for a dictionary to the old Scottish language. And to the whole is prefix'd an exact account of the author's life and writings, from the best histories and records. Edinburgh: Andrew Symson and Robert Freebairn, 1710.
