Who kept that country round as theirs:

Against him were sent on command

The generals Moredant and Bland;

But to Stra’bogie as they drew near,

Stuart did unto Keith retire.

Then captain Holden with volunteers

Follow’d in chase, as it appears,

Seventy Campbells by Bland were sent,

And thirty Kingston’s horse too went,

To clear the village of Keith while light,
