“I played "Mary list awake," Bruce's address to his army,"—and "Oh this is the spot.”

Fuller, Margaret. The Letters of Margaret Fuller. Edited by Robert N. Hudspeth. Vol. I. Ithaca: Cornell University Press, 1983.

Inferred Fuller names "Bruce's address to his army," a piano piece she played at a gathering at Miss Wells's, identified by Hudspeth as Robert Burns's "Robert Bruce's March to Bannockburn" (also known as "Scots, wha hae wi' Wallace bled"), which first appeared in the newspaper The Morning Chronicle in 1794 and later in George Thomson's Original Scotish Airs (1799).
