GRANDEM NATU: although the phrases maior, maximus, parvus, minor, minimus natu are of frequent occurrence, yet magnus natu is not Latin, grandis natu being always used instead. The historians sometimes use magno natu esse or in magno natu esse. ANNO POST: the word unus is not usually attached to annus except where there is a strong contrast between one and a larger number of years.

Thus closed the portion of Scottish history which is known as the War of Independence.
One of these, the Uropeltis grandis of Kelaart , is distinguished by its dark brown colour, shot with a bluish metallic lustre, closely approaching the ordinary shade of the cobra; and the tail is abruptly and flatly compressed as though it had been severed by a knife.
