48 In 1793, Currie had written a Francophile, abrasively anti-Pitt pamphlet under the pseudonym, ‘Jasper Wilson’. In consequence he considered American exile and lived in terror of disclosure. See Chapter 9, ‘Dissenter’ in Thornton’s The Entire Stranger.

67 Patrick Kavanagh: Selected Poems (London: Penguin, 1996) pp. 70–1. While Moore was not of Burns’s militant spirit we are now also realising the degree to which his songs are coded expressions of the bloodier Irish political turmoil of the 1790s and arguably, an embryonic assertion of new national forces.

75 For Stevenson’s profound ambivalence to Burns see Letter 635, Vol. 1, The Letters of Robert Louis Stevenson. In the same volume (Letter 424) there is a project for not only a book about Ramsay, Fergusson and Burns, but a book that would use Villon as context. He never really synthesised his Scottish roots with his Francophilia.
