Sinks groaning on the field.

The Scots behold their leader fall,

And rank on rank they yield.

'On peasants! on--ye Normand men!

Strike down beneath your feet!'

For home and peace the Scots wish'd then;

But there was no retreat.

With corpses was the Kringell fill'd;

The ravens were regaled.

The youthful blood which there was spill'd
