Finlay’s Scottish Ballads, I, xviii f; from recitation.

1

Then out an spak a little wee boy,

And he was near o Percy’s kin:

Methinks I see the English host

A coming branking us upon.

2

Wi nine waggons scaling wide,

And seven banners bearing high;

It wad do any living gude

To see their bonny colours fly.
