in that way, in the same year—that is, the 1165th year from the Lord’s incarnation—his brother William received the kingdom;
and in the 33rd year of his reign his son, Alexander, was
born to him, in the 1198th year from the Lord’s incarnation.
And he died in the 49th year
of his reign. His son Alexander, indeed, received the kingdom honourably after his
death. And in the year 1221 he united Joanna, daughter of
King John and sister of H[enry], king of England, to himself in matrimony: after this 42
years have passed. She died childless in the year 1238; on account of which the same
king took Mary, daughter of Ingram de Coucy, as wife, in the year 1239, who bore him a
son, in the year 1241, calling him Alexander: 22 years have been completed since his
birth. In the year 1249, and of his reign 35, Alexander the peacemaker died, on 8 July.
His son, Alexander, succeeded him on 13 July: 14 years have been completed after this.
1\6/6 years1 have been completed since
the foundation of Cîteaux.
In the 12\64th
/ year of the Lord, \6/ score \and 8/ years have been completed since the foundation of Melrose.
And since
the martyrdom of St Thomas \4 score and 12/. Since the capture of
W[illiam], king of Scots, \89/.
Since the Battle at the
Standard \6 score and 5/. After the birth of King Alexander \65/.
And, on 25 July, the \54th
/ year was completed since W[illiam], king of Scots,
handed over his daughters, i.e., after the burning of Roxburgh and Berwick \47/.
