’Tis the destroying hordes of hell,

Whose hearts with fiendish passions swell,

Whose swords on ruined Beauty fell—

The Brave, the Fair, the Weak. Farewell!

Ye’ll be revenged by Scotland.

Then Scotland, by brave Havelock led,

Rush’d o’er the field of murder’d dead,

Fighting for “bleeding Beauty’s” sake—

The very earth itself might quake

Beneath the wrath o’ Scotland.
