About this book
Wallace bears the subtitle Or, The Life and Acts of Sir William Wallace, of Ellerslie, and the edition announces notes and preliminary remarks. The preliminary remarks concern the life of the author and the character of the work, while the edition says the work is published from a manuscript.
An account of a manuscript describes a prose text occupying about a hundred leaves in small quarto, without pagination, and suggests its spelling may indicate an older date than supposed. A textual note suspects an error in a manuscript reading and identifies the river intended as the Awe, explaining the names Lochawe and Lochow. A speech in the verse describes a body laid on the cold ground, a kiss on its mouth, and a cloth used to cover it.
