Carmichael turn'd him round about,

I wat the salt tear blinded his ee,

"There came a token frae your grace,

Has ta'en the laird awa frae me."

"Mast thou played me that Carmichael?—

Hast thou played me that?" quoth he;

"The morn the Justice Court's to stand,

And Logie's place ye maun supplie."

Carmichael's awa to May Margaret's bower,

Even as fast as he may dree;
