I rode on, sir, with my escort, and that night we reached Tolosa, where the young Lieutenant his name was Gerard found a surgeon to set his bone. He suffered considerable pain, yet insisted next morning upon proceeding with me.
He caused his son, the young prince, to be seized and put into prison, and he banished Gaveston from the country, and forbade his son to have any thing more to do with him.

The new Prime Minister for Scotland was the able, eloquent and accomplished Sir John Dalrymple.
