Than Sharp this noble friend of mine.

A paction past twixt him and me

That I from skaith should keep him free:

I gave him sorcery, gainst lead

That shooting should not be his dead,

And yet this did not him secure,

He lost, his life on Magus-muir;

There some stout-hearted men in Fyfe,

With swords of steel did take his life;

And very justly did him kill
