With right and with might, with skill and with will,

And let the post stand in steadfastness.

Let right help might, and skill go before will,

Then shall our mill go aright;

But if might go before right, and will go before skill,

Then is our mill mis-a-dight."

Sometimes it is under the signature of John Trueman that John Ball writes:

"Beware ere ye be woe;

Know your friend from your foe;

Take enough and cry "Ho!"
