*** The antient Poem of Flodden-Field having become extremely scarce, is now, for the first time, published in an authentic form, the text being established by the collation of the different manuscripts and printed copies. Copious Notes are subjoined, as also an Appendix, containing numerous ancient Poems relating to the battle and its consequences, together with the minute accounts of the most creditable English historians. The engravings of the two standards carried by the Earls of Huntly and Marishall, and the sword and dagger of King James IV. are added as appropriate embellishments. The whole, it is hoped, will be found an interesting commentary to an event, which has latterly become so universally popular, by the publication of Mr Scott's Marmion.
