Note 360 — 42 CLERK COLVILL
Reading edition
It will be observed that some of the Renaud ballads in the Poésies populaires de la France were derived from earlier publications: such as were communicated by collectors appear to have been sent in in 1852 or 1853. The versions cited by Rathery, Revue Critique, II, 287 ff, are all from the MS. Poésies populaires. BB, CC have either been overlooked by me in turning over the first five volumes, or occur in vol. vi, which has not yet been received. GG came to hand too late to be ranked at its proper place.
