time See also:minister of Arbuthnott in See also:Kincardineshire. His extant See also:works are (a) three poems, "The Praises of Wemen" (224 lines), "On Luve" (ro lines), and "The Miseries of a Pure See also:Scholar" (189 lines), and (b) a Latin See also:account of the Arbuthnot See also:family, Originis et Incrementi Arbuthnoticae Familiae Descriptio Historica (still in MS.), of which an See also:English continuation, by the See also:father of Dr See also:John Arbuthnot, is preserved in the See also:Advocates' Library, See also:Edinburgh. The praise of the See also:fair See also:sex in the first poem is exceptional in the literature of his See also:age; and its geniality may help us to understand the author's popularity with his contemporaries. Arbuthnot must not be confused with his See also:con-temporary and namesake, the Edinburgh printer, who produced the first edition of See also:Buchanan's See also:History of See also:Scotland in 1582. Some have discovered in the publication of this See also:work a false See also:clue to James's resentment against the principal of King's College.
The particulars of Arbuthnot's See also:life are found in See also:Calderwood, Spottiswood, and other Church historians, and in See also:Scott's See also:Fasti Ecclesiae Scoticanae. The poems are printed in See also:Pinkerton's See also:Ancient Scottish Poems (1786), i. pp. 138-155.
