The stone was taken on the orders of King Edward I of England and transported to Westminster Abbey, where it was used to crown English monarchs until it was returned to Scotland in 1996. The stone itself is a block of red sandstone, and was said to have been used by Jacob, father of the twelve tribes of Israel, as a pillow.   Read about this stone, known as Jacob's Pillar in Genesis 28:18 Read More history on the stone here: Stone of Scone

The Fisherman's Prayer: "Thou King of deeds and power above, Thy fishing blessing pour down on us. I will cast down my hook,   the first fish which I bring up, In the name of Christ, King of the elements, the poor shall have it at his wish."	The Shamrock There's a dear little plant that grows in our isle, 'Twas Saint Patrick himself, sure, that set it; And the sun of his labor with pleasure did smile, And with dew from his eye often wet it. It grows through the bog, through the brake, through the mireland, And they call it the dear little Shamrock of Ireland.
