Yes; and Ho Morag, &c.

When great Montrose and Alexander

Proud Lowland hosts had fought and frighted.

Yes; and Ho Morag, &c.

The close of this stirring lyric gives us the warrior-bard, after the ancient manner:

Thick and close, and walked and plaited

Blood-coloured, reddened be the heather.

Yes; and Ho Morag, &c.

Haste with thy walking maidens mated

With our brave girls to march together.
