Fy, Tyndall to it, Jedbrugh heir;

I trow he was not half sae stout,

But anes his stomach was a steir,

With gun and genzie, bow and spier,

He micht se mony a crakit crown,

But up amang the merchant gier,

They bussie were as we wer doun.

The swallow-tails frae teckles flew,

Fyve hundred slain into the flicht,

But we had pestellets anew,
