Notes

The one notable exception is D.S.M. Imrie's "The story of 'The Scots Magazine,'" in Scots Magazine, 30 (1939), 269-274, 341-354, 445-452 and 31 (1939), 51-58, 141-150, 218-226, largely emphasizing the role of Scottish writers therein.

Numbers 51, 57, 127, 133, 139 are Warton's; Numbers 1, 7, 8, 12-14, 16, 18, 30, 36, 37, 47, 52, 57, 61, 64-66, 88, 100, 117, 118, and 140, Hawkesworth's; Number 23, by the fourth man.

It may be worth noting that SM has "a view" (l. 59); Oxford, "her view." And SM has italics in l. 27 ("her") and l. 37 ("night" and "noon"). (The line numbers are from SM, which omits the fifth stanza.)
