Her greenest wreath of glory won

By deeds of dauntless bravery.

On Bannockburn’s camp covered field

The men of war were met to wield,

With hostile hand, the sword and shield,

For conquest or for liberty!

How gaily glanced that field before

Began the battle’s rage and roar!

That reddened with the reeking gore

As raved the dreadful revelry.
