For between Falkirk and Kippen ay
It is but sixteen miles of way,
Which space maintain’d ten thousand more
Than th’ usual number within each door,
For full four weeks, or nearly thereby,
The time they at the siege did ly,
The happy Janet kept the Forth,
And curb’d all vessels from the north.
About the Queens-ferry she lay,
Came with the tides, and gave them play
