The hunter wind his horn;

He dared ye through the flooded Teith

As a warrior in his scorn!

Dash the red rowel in the steed,

Spur, laggards, while ye may!

St. Hubert's shaft to a stripling reed,

He dies no death to-day!

'Forward!'—Nay, waste not idle breath,

Gallants, ye win no green-wood wreath;

His antlers dance above the heath,
