The Campbells threw down a stone wall,

To let the horsemen on them fall,

Who with sword in hand put them to flight,

And could no longer stand the fight.

Yet many, in rage, came rushing on,

Till bay’nets thro’ their backs were gone,

The bright points on the other side;

So bravely was their valour try’d.

If all their front had so come on,

I know not how the day had gone;
