I saw na way quhairby to cum

Be ony craft to get it clum,

Appeirandly to me.

The craige was vgly, stay, and dreich[1455],

The trie heich, lang, and smal[1456];

I was affrayd to mount sa hich

For feir to get ane fall.

Affrayit to say it[1457],

I luikit vp on loft;

Quhiles minting, quhiles stinting[1458],
