’Twas they only who rul’d the roast,

And even where in camp they lay

To upbraid the Scots, and oft did say,

Mocking the mis’ries that befel,

“These Scotsmen are but rebels all,

“For which they all should hanged be,”—

Which rous’d the Scots most veh’mentlie:

And when they did complain thereof,

Were answer’d with a mere put off:

This did enrage them still the more,
