And see the morn they meet me a'.

"Gar meet me on the Rodric-haugh,

And see it be by break o' day;

And we will on to Conscouthart-green,

For there, I think, we'll get our prey."

Then Hobbie Noble has dreimt a dreim,

In the Foulbogshiel, where that he lay;

He dreimt his horse was aneath him shot,

And he himself got hard away.
