To instruct the Christian Religion And there a Colledge they did frame Which doth remain unto this very time And he that doth not believe me Must read Buchannan and he shall see Some other Authors I could give in But these are sufficient to them that 's not blind Some says they were not Scots to their Name But only Scots by Nation Yet Monks of Melross they were known Which then was in the Picts Kingdom Iohn Earl of Channerth sirnamed Scot To die without Succession was his unfortunate lot Brave Alexander the first a King both stout and good Iohn Earl of Channerth married with his royal blood Before Alexander the first his Brother Edgar did reign The first that was anointed os Scotland King Reverend Iohn Scot he did surmount Who was Bishop Dumblane and did the King anoint Mr. Michael Scot that read the Epistle at Rome He was in King Alexander the second 's Reign Thomas Lermont was first his man That was called the Rymer ever since then And if my Author doeth speak truth Mr. Michael was descended from Buckcleugh And if my Author ye would know Bishop Spotswoods Book these Scots do show How can these randy Liars then Make the Scots to be a start-up Clan Sure new start-ups themselves must be For ancient Families scorns to lie But for the Antiquity of the Scot There 's one thing I have almost sorgot Which is not worthy of nomination Yet to mark Antiquity life make relation In the second Session of King Davids Parliament There was a Statute made which is yet extant That no man should presume to buy or sell With Highland men or Scots of Ewsdale Yet Ewsdale was not near the Forrest Where brave Buckcleugh did dwell According to the old Proyerb They but fell from the Wains tail But when these Scots did bear that stile King David resided in Carlisle Without and infang they disturb'd his Court Which caus'd the King that Act set out Here I speak nought but truth all Men may note The very true Antiquity of the Name of Scot And now my versing Muse craves some repose And while she sleeps I 'le spout a little prose KEnneth the second King of Scots Son to King Alpin who was Son to brave King Achaius forsaid who made the League with Charles the Great Emperour of Germany

Kenneth the third son to Malcolm the first a brave King and a good Iustitiar from the death of Kenneth the second which conquered the Picts to the reign of Kenneth the third we had nine Kings in Scotland I have set down particularly how long every Kings reign was in cumulo they reigned a hundred and nine years most of them although I have not expressed they were most of them killed in the Field being so possest with War on every side what by Denmark and Norway on the one side the Brittans and Saxons on the other side poor little Scotland had much to do to get her feet holden among them For in all that time of an hundred and nine years there was but one victorious Conquering Ptince which was King Gregory So that the Borders in these Lands in England aforesaid being sometimes under the command of the Scots and sometime of the English they became so Rude and Insolent that they would never be governed before Kenneth the third brought them under
