I forgive you, Jayne. Wiliam Dunbar is Scotland's second poet. He flourished in the Court of King James the Fourth, a better man than that dreadful Henry Seventh, but dead on Flodden field. James, not Dunbar.
Dunbar's masterpiece is his 'Lament for the Makars (when he was seik)'. I'm sure you can look it up. The Scots isn't difficult. Or perhaps it is.

Makars are poets.
