Under His Command
Vanquished The Army Of

The quotation is taken from the final paragraph of the Declaration of Arbroath, believed to have been written by Bernard de Linton, Abbot of Arbroath, and appended with 51 seals of the pro-Bruce Scottish nobility. It was sent to Avignon to ask the schismatic Pope John XXII to recognise Bruce's de facto sovereignty over Scotland. He replied affirmatively.
