 | | The author of this verse-history, the Scottish proctors at the curia and the drafters of the Declaration of Arbroath were, it seems, the first generation to articulate fully a sense of ethnic Scottishness - the Scots as a distinct people with their own unique history and ancient origins. |
| | Scottish kings, indeed, are traditionally numbered from Kenneth I. The Angles and Britons of the south, however, were only absorbed in the tent and eleventh centuries. |
| | All that remained was for Scottish literati during the first war of independence to rewrite the story of Scottish origins to make sure that a sense of the Scots as a distinct people, inhabitants of an independent kingdom was properly articulated. |
