129. _Henryson and Kinaston._--MR. SINGER (Vol. iii., p. 297.) refers to

Sir Francis Kinaston's Latin version of Chaucer's _Troilus and

Cresseid_, and of Henryson's _Testament of Cresseid_. The first two

books of the former are well known as having been printed at Oxford,

1635, 4to.; and the entire version was announced for publication by F.

G. Waldron, in a pamphlet printed as a specimen, in 1796. Query, Who is

now the possessor of Kinaston's manuscript, which MR. SINGER recommends

as worthy of the attention of the Camden Society?

In the original table of contents of a manuscript collection, written

about the year 1515, one article in that portion of the volume now lost

is "Mr. Robert Henderson's dreme, _On fut by Forth_." Can any of your

readers point out where a copy of this, or any other unpublished poems

by Henryson, are preserved?
