There are three couplets carved on Mar's Wark; the words are as though spoken by the building itself to the onlooker. For the other two couplets, see NS7993 : Mar's Wark: couplet detail (south tower) and NS7993 : Mar's Wark: couplet detail (main archway).

The one shown here is on the north tower (just left of centre in NS7993 : Mar's Wark); it reads as follows:

"The moir I stand on oppin hitht
My faultis moir subject ar to sitht"

(The more I stand on open height /
My faults more subject are to sight)
