    The latin motto is the Regimental motto of the Royal Regiment of Scotland (and I'd wager a couple of others, as well...I know that the 1st Regiment of Foot used the same motto during the 18th Century). It means "Nobody provokes me with impunity." It is generally considered to be the motto of Scotland itself...and is thought to carry the same symbolism as the Thistle...when you mess with it, you end up getting hurt!

    Perhaps impune, instead?

    Otherwise, great job!

    I didn't even notice the error...need to pay more attention to detail, I guess! Good catch David!

    Good catch indeed, David! The error is in the original, and I didn't notice it either, even when redrawing it!



    Corrected version appears below:
