Scotichronicon, Volume 3 Quotes Showing 1-1 of 1
“Shield of the church, giver of peace to his people, guide to the wretched,
a king upright, strict, wise, prudent, honest,
a pious king, a brave king, a most virtuous king, a wealthy king;
he was himself the second of this name (that is Alexander).
He was himself king for three times ten and five years.
The island called Kerrera has carried this man off.
His spirit seeks the heights as it joins the heavenly bodies,
But Melrose retains his buried bones.”
Walter Bower, Scotichronicon, Volume 3
