‘Where be ye gaun, ye broken men?’

Quo fause Sakelde; ‘come tell to me!’

Now Dickie of Dryhope led that band,

And the nevir a word o lear had he.

‘Why trespass ye on the English side?

Row-footed outlaws, stand!’ quo he;

The neer a word had Dickie to say,

Sae he thrust the lance thro his fause bodie.
