 And Gordon, the bright,

So boldly did fight,

The red coats took flight, and awa', manː

And we ran, &c.

Strathmore and Clanronald,

Cry'd ſtill, Advance Donald,

Till both theſe heroes did fa', man!

For there was ſuch haſhing,

And broad-ſwords a-claſhing,

Brave Forfar himſelf got a claw, man.

And we ran, &c.

Lord Perth ſtood the ſtorm,

Seaforth but luke-warmː

Kilſyth and Strathallan not ſla', man;

And Hamilton pled

The men was not bred,

For he had no fancy to fa', man.

And we ran, &c.

Brave gen'rous Southeſk,

Tullibardin was briſk,

Whoſe father indeed would not draw, manː

Into the ſame yoke,

Which ſerv'd for a cloak,

To keep the eſtate 'twixt them twa, manː

And we ran, &c.
