The Clan Macdonald and the Burghers of Inver~ ness (2 nd S. i. 328.) Either by misprint or mis- take, the extract from the Kirk Register of In- verness for May 19, 1689, is made to record a sermon from an impossible text, viz. the 14th verse of the 124-th Psalm ; there is no such verse in the Bible ! But, on referring to the original, it seems to me most probable that the text should be

given from the 1st to 4th verse, being a very suit- able subject for the thanksgiving of the Inverness burghers for their deliverance 1'rom the assault of " Coll of the Cows." , A. B. K.

Epigram on " Sorrel " (2 nd S. i. 467.) The following extract of a letter from Dr. Thomas Smith to Samuel Pepys, dated April 16, 1702, enables us to fix the date of the publication of the epigram on " Sorrel." He says :

"After the chagrin which the contents of this long tedious letter may cast you into, I have, to divert you, and to restore you to your natural good humour, enclosed a paper containing an epitaph upon the late high and mighty Dutch hero, as also some few heroic lines upon Sorrell, which, after a single reading, I presume you will throw into the fire."

After reading this, one is inclined to suspect that Dr. Smith was the author of the lines. ,1 have consulted the Post-Soy and other papers of 1702, but cannot find the epigram in print.

A Query touching Sorrel. It is stated by Miss Strickland (Queens of England, vol. viii. p. 120., edit. 1854), that the following lines were sup- pressed by Pope, and only appear in the editions after his death :

" Angels, who watched the guardian oak so well, How chanced ve slept when luckless Sorrel fell."
