suffice for the maintenance of the monks serving there; and because, as we have understood, all acts of this kind done by the said abbots were rejected, revoked, and made wholly null in law, by our father of good memory, late King of Scots, and the late Thomas Randolph, Earl of Moray, our dear cousin, then holding our place, with the consent of the diocesan, to wit, the late James, by the grace of God then Bishop of St. Andrews, in whose bishopric the said monastery is situated, and by the full council in full parliament held at Scone; we revoking all pensions, gifts, and leases of this kind by whomsoever of the said abbots, or howsoever made and granted up to the day of the making of these presents, strictly command and enjoin that you on sight of these presents should cause the good men, the monks, to have a letter upon this our revocation, sealed with our Great Seal in the due form of our chapel, addressed to the justiciars, sheriffs, provosts, and other officers of ours, whosoever they may be for the time, and to whom it is of concern, and that they in accordance with our purpose in the premises should support, aid, and defend the religious aforesaid.

ROGER DE QUENCY, Earl of Wynton, and Constable of Scotland, at the prompting of divine love, gives, grants, and confirms by the present charter to God and the monks of Lundors, that they and their men with their oxen, horses, and carts should have a free road (cheminagium) through the middle of his wood of Kyndeloch, if they think it an advantage to them, and through the whole of his land, wherever it might seem to them best and most suitable, as far as to the moor of Edyn for heather; and through the middle of the moor itself as far as the peatmoss, which is called Monagrey, for peats, and thence to the monastery, both going and returning, without hindrance or opposition from his bailiff, or the bailiff of his heirs and successors. He and his heirs will warrant and defend to the monks and their successors the aforesaid right of way against all people and women (contra omnes gentes et feminas). Seal of De Quincy.
