The bloudy tyrant brought them all to end

Excepted mee, which into Scotland scapt,[580]

To George of Dunbar th’earle of March, my frend,

Who in my cause all that hee could ey scrapt:

And when I had for greater succour gapt,[581]

Both at the Frenchmen and the Fleming’s hand,

And could get none, I tooke such as I fand.
