Braveheart summary

After the battle of Stirling, William Wallace was famous all over Scotland. He rode into Edinburgh and up to the castle, his friends at his side. The people looked at him with wide eyes like children. The nobles in their fine clothes did not understand how an ordinary man could win a great battle like that, when the Bruces and Balliols could not. Robert the Bruce was now out of prison and he stood among the other nobles as William walked into the castle. He could see at once that this Wallace would never serve any other man. A man began to read: 'In the name of God, Sir William Wallace, we make you First Lord of Scotland!'
