- Notes:
- "The following drama was written in the winter of 1811, at the request of one of the managers of the Philadelphia theatre; and was first performed at New York in the spring of 1812, and at Philadelphia in the ensuing winter. ... And it is now comitted [sic] to the press, not only as a mere American drama, but with all the disadvantages which must attend the publication of any drama, after its freshness has been lost on the stage."--Preface, p. iii.
- Founded on Sir Walter Scott's poem of the same title.
