They are scarcely Scottish Literature, but as the work of a Scottish poct, may take their place here; although the works of James I, and Gawin Douglas (Virgil), have appeared in the catalogue of English Literature. In the Darius, Act iii, Sc. 3, some lines of the Persiau king's soliloquy bear a strong resemblance to the celebrated passage in the Tempest, beginning with "The cloud capped towers." The Tempest, in all probability, was written subsequently to Darius, so that Shakspeare appears to have borrowed the idea from Lord Stirling. The lines in Darius begin with "Let greatnesse of her glascie scepters vaunt." 14825 ANCIENT SCOTTISH POEMS, published from the MS.
