achievements testifies. But after Scotland had been treacherously taken by Robert Bruce, as is related in this chapter, he then, lying ou the bed of sickness, in the middle of his army, in the magnanimity of his spirit, ordered and commanded his body not to be buried where he was, but to be carried with the army, till all Scotland was finally reduced. But this command could not be effectually fulfilled. Therefore, his body was conveyed to England, and buried at Westminster, in the following year, on the eighteenth day of October, near Saint Edward, at the head of his father's grave, by the hands of the venerable fathers, the lord Antony, patriarch of Jerusalem, and bishop of Durham, and William, archbishop of York with the other bishops, abbots, and prelates of the whole kingdom. And a certain versifier has written thus, concerning :— " King, while yonflourished in your power and might, Fraud lay concealed and hononr came to light ; Peace gladdened all the earth. The Scots were crush'd, Afflicted, beaten, humbled to the dust."
