Fragments of Ancient Poetry, Collected in the Highlands of Scotland

This rare version of Fragments of Ancient Poetry, Collected in the Highlands of Scotland, and Translated from Gaelic and Eres is an original 1760 edition. The poems are genuine remains of ancient Scottish poetry. The date of their composition cannot be exactly determined. Tradition, in the country where they were written, refers them to an area of the most remote antiquity: and this tradition is supported by the spirit and strain of the poems themselves, which abound with ideas and manners that belong to the most early slate of society.
