Earishal who serv’d me many a year,

And for my interest did appear;

He serv’d his ’prentiship below,

Then to the mountains he did go,

The Cameronians to defeat,

People whom I do greatly hate,

At Aird’s moss he surpris’d that crew,

Cameron their champion he slew,

And desperately cut off his head,

Also his hands and made him bleed.
