Synopsis
Excerpt from Aberdour and Inchcolme: Being Historical Notices of the Parish and Monastery, in Twelve Lectures

Snatches of old ballads, read in early days - ballads which tell of 'sir Patrick Spens' and the 'bonny Earl of Murray - were no doubt recalled to memory; and, along with these, historical recollections of the 'good Regent,' and that other, of very different mould, who pronounced the panegyric over the grave of Knox: 'there lies one who never feared the face of man But all else was to learn.
