At Edinburgh we went to the 
principal public Buildings ; thofe are, 
I. The Cafik-y a very ftrong Build- 
ing, on a precipitious folid Rock. 
It is one of the King’s Floufes, but 
of no very great Receipt: In it are 
kept the Crown and Scepter of Scot^ 
land. There was then lying in the 
Caftle Yard an old great Iron Gun, 
which they called Mounts Megy and 
fome Meg of Berwick, of a great 
Bore, but the Lcngtli is not anfwer- 
able tO' the Bignefs. 2 . Heriot\ 
Hofpital, a fquare Stone Building, 
having a large Turret at each Corner. 
It hath very l^iacious and beautiful 
Gardens, and is well endowed. There 
is a Cloifter on both Sides ol the 
Court, on each Hand as one goeth 
in.
