Fingal furvived Ofcar, (Temora, B. I. ) ; and, though, he felt the effeds of age fo much, that he then declared he was to fight the laft of his fields, yet he appears ftill far fuperior to all the heroes ; and that in favage hfe, in fuch a country, and fuch a climate. IXXII. ( 93 ) XXIL There is in Carthon a ftrange error. Fin- gal, in a very fuperior piece of poetry, fym- pathifes with Cleflamor that Balclutha was defolate. As foon as Carthon's Veflels ap- pear, he is known to be the King of B...al- clutha ; the bard fpeaks to him by his name. In his anfwer, he gives himfelf as the heir of thofe whofe dwelling Comhal had de- ftroyed ; he is young. Balclutha is placed on the Clyde ; Fingal mud have been known in, and had fome knowledge of thefe quarters; for, (not to mention the fpoils of the Roman conquefts, and that M'Pherfon, in a note to the war of Caros, places Hidallan's country in or nearStirling- fhire) Comhal and Cleflamor had made in- curfions into the country feized by the Ro- mans ; Ofcar had gone to the neighbour- hood of the Romans ; Fingal had fought againft them oftener than once, and v/as jua ( 94 ) juft returned from an incurfion.
