"The title of Lulach to the Sceptre, and Sword, of his fathers, was perhaps preferable, in the legal usages of that Gaelic age, to the pretensions of Malcolm Canmore, who was descended from Kenneth III, the second son of Malcolm I. Lulach was the son of Gruoch, the grand-daughter of Kenneth IV. Malcolm was the son of Beatrice the daughter of Malcolm II."
