And such a night Weg takes the road in

As seldom rider was abroad in.

With Boreas at his fullest blast,

And Eurus whistling fierce and fast,

There was a shindy never fellowed.

Loud, deep, and long they raved and bellowed,

That night o’ nights a Scot might say

The Deil (of Hatfield) was to pay.

Well mounted on his mare was Weg,

(A stouter never lifted leg,)
