Lords Percy, Neville, Scrope, and Musgrave. The Scottish delegates brought with them a splendid suite of attendants. The train of the Bishop of St Andrews alone consisted of thirty knights, with their squires ; the cortege of the other bishops and barons was scarcely less splendid ;* and the arrival of the captive monarch himself, escorted by the whole military ar- ray of Northumberland, gave additional solemnity to the... scene of negotiation.' The result' of these conferences at Berwick was, the restoration of David to his kingdom, after a cap- tivity of eleven years. The ransom finally agreed on was a hundred thousand pounds, equivalent to the sum of twelve hundred thousand pounds of modem money, to be paid by annual instalments of four thou- sand pounds ; and, in security of this pa3nnient, twen- ty Scottish youths, heirs of the first families in the country, were delivered as hostages into the hands of the English monarch.^ It was stipulated besides, that, from the principal nobles of the kingdom, three should resort by turns to England, there to remain until the whole ransom was paid ; and, in the event of failure in the payment at any of the terms, the King of Scotland became bound to return to his cap- tivity.
