 34          The Prophecies of Walhave.

Betwixt a yow and a Iamb that leads the flock, Before huttlers the bargain shall begin : All it is bootless his bages be ript. Then shall the ale of Rosay be rank full of side bushes. Then each man aws them, for ruth of his heart, That would rend from the roode, and no rest thole. A cative in a craig shall a tower build* And cry to Craig-fergus the craw done is ever. For a book in but, as a bull born. Bound with a bugle,, blow when he likes, A proud pown in a press lordly shall light: With piots and pillidoes puddled in the crown, Plain power of the Pope must the pown have,, To pluck and to punish, and part him about. A piov shall partly appeal him again. For his part of the pelf add the pown wrong There shall much sorrow and strife stir them once. That shall the Strlings trouble, that stirrs with wings,. An hare with and lurcheon and the hind calf, Shall hie them in holy land, and hold them therein, While a grey hound them grype on the Greek sea, And go with them grievously whom him likes. There shall no gaining them glee, while the grey hound Grype the gray hound, and grieve him full fore. And buffet him bitterly then bite him with war, Go musing upon Merling if thou wilt, For I mean for no more, man at this time,

Then as a lyon he looked me on, Like as he leap would and rent me in sunder : He said, wens thou Waldhave, I weed into heaven, That I may in this world all my wit have,
