Once established, they can be incredibly stubborn, and they’ll often dictate the type of relationships we’ll have in the future. The good news is, you can rewire your brain.

James also gives us an impromptu performance of 'O Lusty May', a popular song published in 1660.

The newly reformed Church of Scotland effected the lives of rich and poor, and the politics of the Kirk was a matter of great importance and interest. The Protestant faith opened a divide between the Scottish people and their kings, and Scots were willing to oppose their king to protect what they saw as true Christian principles. The 1600s were a time a great upheaval in Scotland, largely as a result of religion.

From that point, until the death of his grandson Bonnie Prince Charlie about a century later, the Jacobites (supporters of James/"Jacobus") existed abroad as a shadowy government in exile, always plotting and, in 1745, almost succeeding to reclaim their birthright on the British thrones.
