[Holyrood Palace, Scotland.] 72. [Holyrood Palace is the chief royal palace in Scotland, and the residence of Mary, Queen of Scots, for the six tragic years. The buildings are in an unimposing French style forming a quadrangle, with the historical apartments on one side the state apartments on the other. The Palace was begun in 1500 by James IV. Since the departure of James VI (1603) to ascend the English throne, Holyrood has seldom been visited, and never occupied for any length of time, by any crowned head. Queen Victoria occassionally used the Palace, and George V. and Queen Mary were in residence for some days n 1927.]

[John Knox's Home. Edinburgh.] 71. [John Knox's house is an interesting old house projecting into the High Street of Edinburgh. Knox's 'manse' is known to have been further up the street, but it is believed that he lived here for some time, towards the end of his life. Over part of the front of the ground floor is an inscription "Lufe God abufe al, and thi nychtbour as thi-self." The house, which stands near the old lower gate of the City, was purchased by the Free Church. The interior is well preserved and many relics of Knox are stored there. Perhaps the most interesting is the study where the great reformer is traditionally believed to have worked until a fortnight before his death.]

It forms a canopy beneath which is a figure of Scott seated with his favourite dog, and was carved in grey Carrara marble by Sir John Steell. The monument was erected between 1840 and 1844 from the design of George Kemp, a young architect who while travelling through Europe in order to study Gothic architecture, supported himself by working as an ordinary mason. In the niches are characters from some of Scott's work - Prince Charles Stewart, the Lady of the Lake, Meg Merrilies, and the Last Minstrel being the most notable, while the capitals of the pilasters supporting the vaulted roof are ornamented by likenesses of celebrated Scottish writers, including Burns, Hogg, Allan Ramsay, Smollett, Byron, James Thomson, James 1st and Drummond of Hawthornden. In the background may be seen the Castle.]
