Schyr Ranald come by ten houris of the day.

[Befor Persye than seir men brocht war thai:]

Thai folowit him of felouny that was wrocht;

The siyss of this couth say to him rycht nocht.

Befor the juge thar he denyit Wallas;

And so he mycht, he wist nocht quhar he was.

Fra this consaill my purposs is to pass,

Off Wallace spek, in wyldirnes so wyde;

The eterne God his gouernour be and gyde!130
