To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A hiatus in its history occurs -till the middle of the twelfth century when it was in the possession of the MacDougalls, Lords of Lome. In 1307 the greater part of the building, as it now appears, was erected by the MacDougalls. In 1314 King Robert the Bruce, in retaliation for the help rendered to the English by the MacDougalls in the wars of Scottish Independence, captured the castle. It is highly probable the Lords of Lome were never after permitted to resume possession. The powerful Campbel...ls were the next holders. Once this, clan had it, they held it with an iron grasp. Their land hunger was proverbial. A laird of Cultoquhey, near Crieff, who had had experience of the Campbells and some other clans whose lands bordered with his, was constrained to add a litany of his own to the pre- scribed form — 66 GUIDE TO OBAN WALKS. " Froe the preed o' the Campbells, Frae the ire o° the DrummondB, Frae the pride o' the" Grahams, And frae the wind o' the Murrayi, Guid Lord, deliver us." Charters are extant which confirm Campbell of Loch Awe as its possessor in 1436.
