 4 " Yet I will stay at Otterbourne,

Whero you shall welcome be;

And, if ye come not at three dayis end,

A fause lord I'll ca' thee."

“ Thither will I come," proud Percy said

“By the might of Our Ladye!"

" There will I bide thee," said the Douglas,

My trowth I plight to thee.",

They lighted high on Otterbourne,

Upon the bent sae brown;

They lighted high on Otterbourne,

And threw their pallions down.

And he that had a bonnie boy,

Sent out his horse to grass;

And he that had not a bonnie boy,

His ain servant he was.

But up then spake a littlo page,,

Before the peep of dawn,

"O waken ye, waken ye, my good lord,

For Percy's hard at hand."

“Ye lie, ye lie, ye liar loud!,

Sae loud I hear ye lie:,

For Percy had no men yestreen,

To dight my men and me.

“But I hae dream'd a dreary dream,,

Beyond the Isle of Sky;,

I saw a dead man win a fight,,

And I think that man was I."
