May be, their action was inspired by a desire to gratify national vanity, as the subject of this literature was principally furnished by their own military exploits; but to show that they were not devoid of a literary taste, examples can be quoted of warrior kings who were good judges of poetry, as also excellent composers. Theirs was, therefore, an intelligent maecenatism.
