ſome ſay that we wan,

Some ſay that they wan;

Some ſay that nane wan at a' manː

But one thing I'm ſure,

"That on Sheriffmuir

A battle was there, which I ſaw, manː

And we ran, and they ran;

And they ran, and we ran:

And we ran, and they ran awa', man.

Brave Argyle and Belhaven;

Not frighted like L—n,

Which Rothes and Haddington fa, manː

For they all with Wightman,

Advanc'd on the right, man,

While others took fright, being raw, manː

And we ran, &c.

Lord Roxburgh was there,

In order to ſhare

With Douglaſs, who ſtood not in aw, manː

Volunteerly to ramble,

With Lord Loudon Campbell

Brave Iſlay did ſuffer for a', manː

And we ran, &c.
