Aaron Hill

The 1753-54, second edition of Hill's works contains window poems (vol. 3, pp. 140, 163 and vol. 4, pp. 49, 120-124), a not uncommon sub-genre, but two window poems attributed to him in the November 1740 GM (p. 567) are not included. They are titled "Written on a Window at Montrose near Aberdeen, Scotland" and "Written on a Window in another Inn, in Scotland." Hill was in Scotland in 1726 for several months and again in 1728, also for a period of months.[4]
