Walter Scott ready Percy's Reliques in his youth, stating "and henceforth I overwhelmed my schoolfellows, and all who would hearken to me, with tragical recitations from the ballads of Bishop Percy." (Millgate, Walter Scott: the Making of a Novelist, 1987; Mahoney, Some Antiquarian and Literary Influences of Percy's Reliques, 1964). The work is also attributed to influencing Wordsworth, Coleridge, Carroll, and Wilde. (Groom, The Making of Percy's Reliques, pg. 3).
