AS I did Travel in the North, I in Discourse took Pleasure, To talk with those that were our Foes, when that we could get leasure: What was the Reason I did ask, that they rose in Rebellion? And what Great Madness moved them, for to work such Great Treason? Against both King and Parliament, and Government all over, And would not join to George our King, the great Prince of Hanover. They answerd me with one Accord, we may think shame to tell you, That we such simple Fools have been, to join with such a Fellow. He did send Letters unto Us, and falsly did us Flatter, Desiring us for to arise, and Hanoverians Scatter, And that he would bring ore our King, and would put off Hanover, And that our King he should possess both North and South all over. But now alas! we suffer for, our Folly in this Matter, For now we risen are, and we shall never be the better, For we did once encounter with, that Mighty Man of Valour, Whos like a Lyon in his Strength, but comely in his Feature. Even Great Argyle your General will make us to Repent it, That we so foolishly should have even unto Mar Consented: And tho many of us fell evn at the same Engagement Yet we did go along with him, by his false To[?] [E]nticement.
He told us we should see our King ere we were two Months older, But now we see it is a Lye which makes our Hearts the Colder: For he did bring a Man to us, that might have been his Father, Who said, he he would not Popry quite, but want our Kindness rather. It had been better for us all, that Mar had nere been born, For now, alas! we are become, all the whole Nations Scorn: For now we have left all our Lands, likewise our Lifes in Danger Alas! that ere we did agree, for to fetch in a Stranger. But now were forcd to take flight before King Georges Army, Of Soldiers Brisk, and Volunteers, like them there are not many, That made us from Saint Johnstoun run, and likewise from Dundee Sir, And also thorow all the Towns, into the North Country Sir. Alas! alas! we are undone, for now and evermore then; We know not where to hide our selves, neither in Hole nor Bore then: For like a Partridge they do hunt, us both ore Hills and Glens Sir, Which makes us for to rue the day, that we were Named Clans Sir. But now alas! we cannot help what we have done amiss Sir, But now were like to end our days, in Grief and Heaviness Sir, Oh and alas! we leave our Lands, with Lamentation Sir, Likewise our Wives and Children all, have pity them upon Sir.
