"Aince there wis a fairmer wha bided oot beh the Dighty Burn wi his nine bonny dochters. Ae Sunday he tellt the auldest lass tae get a bucket o watter. But whan she got there she fund a muckle draigon cooried in aroond the well. The draigon wis hungert an it ate her aa up in a meenit. Whan she didnae come back, her Da tellt ane o her sisters tae gang efter her, but the draigon ate her up an aa. He sent ae dochter efter anither until the pair lassies were aa deid. Syne the fairmer went up tae the well himsel an saw the draigon. He pelted doon intae the wee toon baalin at the top o his vice aboot the draigon an hoo it had killt his dochters. There wis a laddie crehd Martin wha wis the blacksmith, an he wis raging, cause he had looed the auldest dochter. Martin took up his big muckle hammer an ran aff tae fecht the draigon. Him and the crater ran roon aboot aa the fields an the banks o the burnie tryin tae git a haud o ane anither. Efter a bit it looked like the draigon wis gonnae get Martin in its jaws, but the fowk o the toon were watching an they aa cried oot “Strike, Martin!” He birled his hammer roon an gied the draigon sic a dunt on its heid that it wis dune for, an the baist laid doon tae dee wi its heid on a stane. Afore it deed it spake these wirds:
An efter that aa thae places hae been kent by the names the draigon gied them, though we noo creh Strikemartin ‘Strathmartine.’ The muckle stane is there noo an aa, wi carvins on it tae mind o hoo Martin dinged the draigon doon."
In the biggit environment
The tale o the Strathmartine Draigon is commemoratit in the hert o Dundee wi a muckle bronze sculpture. The Draigon noo an again flits aboot the toon, but fir noo rests doon on the Murraygate.
The auldest biggit anchor tae the tale is the Pechtish Stane ae mile north o Bridgefoot in Strathmartine, Angus. Langsyne, this stane wad hae conveyit some tint message tae the Pechtish fowk an their neebors. Nooadays its maistly associatit wi the tale o the Strathmartine Draigon, an is gied as the airt whaur Martin duntit the draigon ower the heid.
A pub in St Mary's, nae far fae the Dichty Burn, supposit airt whaur the fairmer an his bonny dochters bade, is cried the Nine Maidens, aifter the dochters swallaed bi the draigon in the tale.

Sermon on the Mound
Context

Fest-paced economic growth causit interest rates tae double in 1988 whan Thatcher gae her speech. The ill-leukit-upon poll tax startit in Scotland an aw; industrie wis declinin; the Ravenscraig steelworks wis closit; the miners hae bin on strike, and whiles mony jobs went awa, fowk in tred unions were told in the 'sermon' tae value individualism.
Content
Thatcher began bi tellin her audience that she wis speakin "personally as a Christian, as weel as a politician", afore gaun tae share her view that the Bible shored a "view o the universe, a proper attitude tae wirk, an principles tae shape economic an social life". In the address, she offerit a theological airgument for her ideas on individual salvation, personal responsibility caipitalism an the mercat economy. Citin a view that "Christianity is anent spiritual redemption, no social reform," she quotit St. Paul in 2 Thessalonians 3:10, "gin ony man wadna work, neither soud he eat". Thatcher claimed the Bible fordert a guid work ethic, an principles fur shapin economic an social life.
Legacy
Her quotin frae the Kirk o Ingland hymn I Vow to Thee, My Country (yin o Thatcher's favorite hymns) was later criticised in 2004 by the suffragan bishop o Hulme, Stephen Lowe, for its content. He found the first stanzas to be naitionalistic, heretical an racist, whilk directit the Christian focus awa fae God an toward the state.
