     The Prophecies of Waldhave. 33

For Douglas the doughty may eudure well. Deal the best of the lands, that longeth thee to. Feed them with fairness, and with fair-words, Fy on the fellowship that hath a false end. Cative and curst men are cumbered for ever, There may no cative by Christ this kindred defend, Laughty and largenels are two love things. He that his life gave, loves them well. [Knights and christen men there to heed take, Cast the curst men in care, but they to Christ turn ? Think on Dumbarton on the hold in old burns time, That thou art but a beeld, and in that land chief. Thou /bait take heed to this token that I shall thee tell, Believe it as truly as it were written. When Lowmnod law shall its leave take. From the land of Lennox, and leave it for ever; Leap lightly with a loup, and look the about, And mantle all the craig with a tower wall. With barges and bellengers to rush at the’gates, That both fish and fowel that on flight goe1, Be stirred up freshly, and fair them within, Then is Dumbarton burnt all to powder. And all in a cloud ; thy war ended for ever, Yeair ye yalply, and yairn ye no more.

The castle of Carrick that on a craig stands, Shall cry upon Cummock for a true nest : That into Clindsdale coast cievers full fast, In an holine fo hie by an else-busk. Then shall the Galloway grooms get on their mares. Three tods and a terfel shall tene all the woods, From tynmouth to tultie, and tale free: But a gosbask of grouth shall grieve him then, And got on a pray mare, that in grass rests. In a gow of Cowrie by a gray stone, He shall tulle both the tods, and the tub also, hid with teitd that is taken, turn into France, Two wethers and a wolf shall the field make,
