Meditations and prayers, aged 14 to 23.

This record of the meditations and prayers of the independent and high-spirited daughter of Sir James Livingston, Viscount Newburgh, was written between the ages of fourteen and twenty-three, to assist self-examination and repentance of sins. They detail her relationships with her family, close friends and certain servants and her reflections on her courtships and marriage. Lady Elizabeth had royal connections and was later closely involved with various Jacobite plots and schemes. Bodleian Library MS. Rawlinson D. 78. Biography, 17c
