'2nd edn' 1828 as St Valentine's Day; or, the Fair Maid of Perth (CBEL3, OCLC); New York 1828 (NSTC) [also Philadelphia 1828 (NSTC)]; French trans., 1828 [as La Jolie Fille de Perth (see note below)]; German trans., 1828 [as Das schöne Mädchen von Perth (RS)]. Numerous reprintings in collected edns. Robert Cadell on 15 Aug 1828 wrote to Scott saying he was sending 'a Copy of an old friend in a new dress "La Jolie Fille de Perth"' (see Grierson, X, 485). This would suggest a French translation in circulation before the 1829 imprint found in CCFR. |
