‘Three men I’ll take to set him free,
Weel harnessd a’wi best o steel;
The English rogues may hear, and drie
The weight o their braid swords to feel.

‘The Laird’s Jock ane, the Laird’s Wat twa,
Oh, Hobie Noble, thou ane maun be;
Thy coat is blue, thou has been true,
Since England banishd thee, to me.’
