PL4/25/10
Wrote by Burns on the window of an Inn at Stirling at the sight of Stirling castle

Here once the Noble Stewarts reigned
and laws to Scotia well ordaind
But now unroofd their palace stands
Their sceptre swayd by other hands
In idiot race to honour lost
who knows them best despise them most
