Alexander Scott (16th-century poet) Alexander Scott (1520?1582/1583) was a Scottish poet. He is believed to have spent most of his time in or near Edinburgh. Thirty-six short poems are attributed to him, including "Ane New Yeir Gift to Quene Mary", "The Rondel of Love", and a satire, "Justing at the Drum". According to an older view, "he has great variety of metre, and is graceful and musical, but his satirical pieces are often extremely coarse".
