As they had been for Bad’noch bound;
But spread throughout the country round.
And those behind on field who staid,
Ran ev’ry where, be’ng so afraid;
But those who ran by Inverness,
Were hotly handled in the chase.
Lord Ancram and general Bland,
This fierce pursuit they took in hand.
With Kingston’s horse and Kerr’s dragoons,
They thro’ the bonnets clave their crowns,
