A plaque added to the Buchanan Monument NS5285 : The Buchanan Monument in 1850, following restoration. The Latin translates as:

TO THE IMMORTAL MEMORY OF
GEORGE BUCHANAN

A MAN,
BRAVE AMONGST THE BRAVE
LEARnED AMONGST THE LEARNED,
MOST WISE AMONGST THE WISE
WHO, FIRM OF PURPOSE,
RIDICULING THE THREATS OF AN UNGODLY PRIESTHOOD,
DESPISING THE MENACES OF CRUEL TYRANTS,
FEARLESSLY DEFENDED
THE PURE WORSHIP OF GOD
FROM THE WORST SUPERSTITION,
AND THE RIGHTS OF THE HUMAN RACE
FROM THE BASEST SERFDOM.
THIS MONUMENT
OVERLOOKING HIS ANCESTRAL HOME
AND THE SCENE OF HIS BIRTH,
FORMERLY ERECTED
BY POPULAR SUBSCRIPTION, AND AS A TRIBUTE
OF THE AFFECTION OF HIS FELLOW COUNTRYMEN,
A SUCCEEDING GENERATION
CAUSED TO BE RESTORED
IN THE YEAR OF CHRIST, OUR LORD,
1850
