But found it was too hard to do;
Being surrounded by the way,
And forc’d their arms down to lay,
They prisoners of war were made,
Or with them list, they freedom had;
And, Swethenham of Guise’s foot,
But he on parole, release got,
Who gave the real authentic count
What strength, the Highland pow’rs did mount,
Who did command, what clans they were,
