The heart of Robert The Bruce was traditionally believed to have been brought back from the Holy Land (or Spain, more probably) where it had been taken on crusade by James Douglas according to The Bruce's dying wish. It was returned to Scotland in a casket by a knight (subsequently taking the name Lockhart) and buried at Melrose Abbey in the Scottish Borders, excavations discovering some evidence of it there last century. Today at the spot in the ruins of the Abbey a modern plaque bears a quotation from Barbour's epic Scots poem 'The Bruce' "...a noble heart may find nane ease, gif freedome fail ye".
