V Aliant Jockey 's march'd away, To fight the Foe, with Great Mackay ; Leaving me poor Soul, alas! forlorn, To curse the hour I e'er was born: But Ile swear Ile follow-too, And dearest Jockey 's Fate pursue, Near him be to Guard his precious Life, Never Scot had like a Loyal Wife: Swor'd Ile wear, Ile cut my Hair, Tann my Cheeks that once were thought so fair, In Soldiers Weed to him Ile speed, Never like a Trooper crost the Tweed .
Trumpet sound a Victory, Ile kill my self the next Dundee ; Love and Rage, and Fate do's all agree, To do some Glorious thing by me: Great Bellona take my part, Fame and Glory steel my Heart, That for our bonny Scotland 's geud, Some brave Action may deserve my Bloud: Nought shall appear of Female fear, Fighting by his side I love so dear; All the World shall own, that ne'er was known Sike a pretty Lass this thousand Year,
Fow in Noble Armour bright; Ile with Couragious Heart will fight; Fear of Death shall ne'er my Courage stain, King William 's Rights Ile will Maintain: For the Glory of our Sex, Ile aw the Rebles will perplex, And let them find that Women-kind, Sometimes venture with a Warlike mind: Age of Old, our Fame has told, Therefore Ile will never be controul'd; By Friend or Foe, Ile freely goe, Never was a Trooper armed so. Ile a Helmet will put on, Like a right Valiant Warlike Man, Plates of Steel shall guard my Back and Breast, Carbines and Pistols Ile protest, In my hand Ile cock and prime, Now and for ever is the time:
While I thus am mounted Cap-a-pee, Warlike Thunder shall my Musick be, Let smoke arise and dim the Skies, While we do pursue the Warlike prize; Lawrels shall Crown with true Renown, The Victory in City, Court and Town. Mars the God of War shall lead The Army, that will fight and bleed, E'er our Foe shall hope to win the day, Therefore let us march with speed away; Hark! Ile hear the Trumpets sound, We shall be aw with Conquest Crown'd; Let the High-land Rebels brag and boast, Death in Triumph shall ride through their Ho[st] Glory and Fame shall then Proclaim Th' Actions of a valient Warlike Dame If Foes draw nigh, I scorn to flye, With my dearest Love Ile live and dye. Jockey's Answer.
H Ast thou such a valiant heart, To fight and take the Nations part, By the side of Jockey thy delight, For to put the Enemy to flight? I thy Courage must commend, Yet like a true entire Friend, I would have thee stay at home, said he, For the Wars are most unfit for thee; Moggy you are youthfull and fair, Therefore cann't thy tender Nature bear The Shrieks and Cries which fills the Skies, As the Enemy we do surprize.
Love, said he, the loud Alarms In midst of night to Arms to Arms, Will it not affrighten thee, my dear, Should you such a sudden Alarm hear, And before the break of day, Many a valient Souldier may, Lie in streams of reeking purple Gore, Thereofre Moggy whom I do adore, Should she be slain and I remain, It would fill my Heart with muckle pain, She did reply, happy am I If I in the Bed of Honour die.
