Lord Loudon lay at Inverness,
And with him did two thousand men
To keep in awe the Highland Clan:
For several lairds their Clans did raise,
And some took part in both the ways;
Others kept them in their own bounds,
For preservation of their grounds,
And when Duke William gain’d the day,
It was for him, they then did say;
But if Charles had chanc’d to prevail
