Original Narrative: This venerable instrument, the least impaired Gaelic Harp  existing, is known as Queen Mary's Harp , and belongs to C. Durrant Steuart, Esq . , of Dalguise, near Dunkeld. Of Gaelic Harps we can only reckon seven that may be dated earlier than the eighteenth century, the oldest being the Queen Mary and Lamont Harps , now in Edinburgh, and the harp named after Brian Boru (Boromha), preserved at Trinity College, Dublin ; these three dating anterior, perhaps long anterior, to the fifteenth century. The Queen Mary and Brian Boru Harps are the two most nearly resembling one another. They are small, the Queen Mary Harp being only 31 inches high and 18 inches from back to front. They were played resting upon the left knee and against the left shoulder of the performer, whose left hand touched the upper strings. The Queen Mary Harp has a history based upon the family tradition of its former owners , the Robertsons of Lude in Perthshire, but in passing through several mediums it has become unreliable. It was long believed to have been Mary Stuart's, and , according to the Lude tradition, it had golden and jewelled ornaments attached to the right upper circle of the bow including her portrait and the Royal Arms of Scotland, which were stolen about 1745.
