And in order that, concerning them, the words of the prophet should be verified anew, where the disconsolate Rachel is said to have bewailed her children, those most cruel 158 In Byways of Scottish History executioners fell upon the holy and heavenly multi- tude who persevered in confessing Christ, and who, like sheep, fell under their swords in the Isle of May, where the martyrs of God, who, in this life, loved to serve him together, in death were not separated. There was one spirit in them an...d one faith. In that Isle of May there was anciently erected a monastery of well-hewn stone, which was destroyed by the Angles. But the church remains to this day, much visited for its miracles by the people, and women who go thither in the hope of offspring are not disappointed. There is also a famous cemetery, where the bodies of the martyrs repose. Such is the account of the Breviary. 1 The date ascribed to the event narrated in it is the fourth day of March, in the year 875.
In his Cronykil of Scotland Andrew Wyntoun sums up the legend in the following lines: " This Constantyne than regnand, Oure the Scottis in Scotland, Saynt Adriane wyth hys cumpany Came off the land off Hyrkany, And arrywyd in to Fyffe, Quhare that thai chesyd to led thar lyff.
