Meal and salt, bread and snishen,
And with him brought a printed News,
Which did their whole attentions rouze,
How the young Pretender and Lochiel,
O’er Corriarick, had pass’d that fell,
That they were both alive again,
And with them thirty armed men:
This caus’d him longer to abide,
As safely there he could reside,
If a new searching should ensue,
