 SHORT ACCOUNT

THOMAS LEARMONT,

THOMAS the RYMER.



commonly called, Thomas the Rymer, was born in the east corner of Fife, of a good family. His Prophesies have been more credited than any that were ever recorded in the Scots Chronicle, as they have been well attested, what of them is past, and what they allude to, in this present century and period, and of his dark sayings yet to come.

He told many mystical prophesies anent all the kings of Europe, and what fell out according to his prediction, in this ancient kingdom of Scotland; what is past, present and to come.

This brief account is taken from the Records of Cryle, near which place he was born and brought up.
