Thar cruell deide rycht merwaluss to ken,

Quhen fourtie macht agayne thre hundyr men.

Wallace so weill apon him tuk that tide,

Throw the gret preyss he maid a way full wide;

Helpand the Scottis with his der worthi hand:45

Fell faymen he left fey vpon the land.

Yheit Wallas lost fyfteyn in to that steid;

And fourtie men of Sothroun part war dede.

The Butleris folk so fruschit was in deid,

The hardy Scottis to the strenthis throw thaim yeide.50
