And tune their sangs, like Nature's clarks

Our medow, mure and stryp.[80]

The time sa tranquil is and still,

That na where sall ye find,

Saife on ane high and barren hill,

Ane aire of peeping wind.

All trees and simples[81] great and small,

That balmie leife do beir,

Nor thay were painted on a wall,

Na mair they move or steir[82]...."
