The lady raise up, to the window she went;

She heard her kye lowing o'er hill and o'er bent.

"O rise up, ye baron, and turn back your kye;

For the lads o' Drumwharran are driving them

by."

"How can I rise, lady, or turn them again!

Where'er I have ae man, I wot they hae ten."

"Then rise up, my lasses, take rocks in your hand,

And turn back the kye;—I hae you at command.

(bent, plain. rocks, distaffs.)
