The Burning of Edinburgh in 1544 by an English sea-borne army was the first major action of the war of the Rough Wooing. A Scottish army observed the landing on 3 May 1544 but did not engage with the English force. The Provost of Edinburgh was compelled to allow the English to sack Leith and Edinburgh, and the city was burnt on 7 May. However, the Scottish artillery within Edinburgh Castle harassed the English forces, who had neither the time nor the resources to besiege the Castle. The English fleet sailed away loaded with captured goods, and with two ships that had belonged to James V of Scotland.

  • El Incendio de Edimburgo en 1544 por un ejército marítimo inglés fue la primera acción importante de las guerras del Rough Wooing. Un ejército escocés observó el desembarco el 3 de mayo de 1544 pero no se enfrentó a la fuerza inglesa. El Preboste de Edimburgo se vio obligado a permitir que los ingleses saquearan Leith y Edimburgo, y la ciudad fue quemada el 7 de mayo. Sin embargo, la artillería escocesa del Castillo de Edimburgo acosó a las fuerzas inglesas, que no tuvieron ni el tiempo ni los recursos para asediar el castillo. La flota inglesa zarpó cargada con los bienes capturados y con dos barcos que habían pertenecido a Jacobo V de Escocia. (es)
  • L'incendio di Edimburgo fu uno scontro avvenuto il 7 maggio 1544 nell'ambito del fatto storico noto come Brutale corteggiamento, all'interno delle guerre anglo-scozzesi. Il 3 maggio 1544 sbarcarono in Scozia delle forze inglesi, ma gli scozzesi preferirono non combattere. Il prevosto di Edimburgo venne però ben presto costretto a non opporsi al saccheggio delle città di Leith e di Edimburgo, città quest'ultima che venne data alle fiamme il 7 maggio. Ad ogni modo, l'artiglieria scozzese continuò a tormentare gli inglesi sul campo, i quali non avevano né il tempo né le risorse per assediare il castello locale. La flotta inglese salpò nuovamente con i beni razziati e con due delle imbarcazioni appartenute a Giacomo V di Scozia. (it)
