Mekill he trowys in God, and his awn weid;

Till sayff his men he did full douchty deid.

Wpon him selff mekill trawaill he tais;

The gret battaill compleit apon him gais.330

In the forbreyst he retornyt full oft:

Quham euir he hyt, thair sawchnyng was wnsoft.

That day in warld knawin was nocht his maik;

A Sotheroun man he slew ay at a straik.

Bot his a strenth mycht nocht agayn thaim be:335

Towart his ost behwffyd for to fle.
