Bot quhair that justice is away?

Quha is the wyte[1107], quha can schew us?

Quha bot our nobillis, that sould know us,

And till honorabill deidis draw us!

Let never comouneweill decay,

Or els sum mischief will befaw us,

And nobillnes we put away.

Put our awin lawis to executioune;

Upon transgressouris mak punitioune;

To cruell folk seik na remissioune;
