By the gude mayle bathe halss and his crag bayne

In sondyr straik; thus endyt that cheftayne.150

To grounde he fell, feile folk about him thrang,

Tresoune! thai criyt, traytouris was thaim amang.

Kerlye with that fled out sone at a side;

His falow Stewyn than thocht no tyme to bide.

The fray was gret, and fast away thai yeid,155

Lawch towart Ern; thus chapyt thai of dreid.

Butler for woo off wepyng mycht nocht stynt.

Thus raklesly this gud knycht [haiff] thai tynt.
