Hi Matt - I admit it was my best guess. Should probably have checked at the time... But bear in mind that it's not beneath the big tartan weavers to add in, or leave out, the odd line here or there basically because they think it looks better that way. Sacrilege perhaps. But also true.
And arguably in any case it's perhaps a bit of a modern affectation that we try to be so punctilious about such things, when the true history was rather less exact. I read once that that Shakespeare spelled his own name 171 different ways... ;-)
