CHAPTER LIV.
How lang þe Scotis were in Scotland
Befor the Pightis thare in wonnand.
Befor the Pightis thare in wonnand.
Four hundreth winter and fifty
And twa to rekin oure evinly
Befor þe blessed Natiuite,

To Rome þe lawis brocht were þan,
Writtin in to table stane.

As in thare storyis writtin is.
And twa to rekin oure evinly

Five winteris to and monethis thre,
Gif that all suld reknyt be,
Or the Pightis in Scotland

Twa hundreth full and forty ȝeire
Five winteris to and monethis thre,
Gif that all suld reknyt be,

Off thare lynnage to carp a quhile,
As in the thrid buke wes befor;
Fra Symone-Breke to Fergus-More,

And twa thareto wes king but weire.
