Those from Scotland have promised in good faith for themselves and for the other people of Scotland that they, before she comes, shall secure the land, and shall make surety there that she can come safely into her kingdom, as the true lady, queen and heiress; and that concerning this they shall make all the sureties which the messengers of Norway say they are able to make.
