(I) WE have not yet forgot Sir, How Cobburns Kirk was broke Sir, The Pulpit-Gown was pulled down, And turned into nought Sir. (2) The Pulpit-Cloth was rent Sir, Unto the Cross was sent Sir, The Boys that did convoy it Were into Prison put Sir. (3) The Chess-windows they were broke Sir, Out ore the Window cast Sir, With a convoy of holo hoi, Unto the Streets were sent Sir. (4) The French are disappointed, Their Wicked Plots disjointed, Poor Cobburn hes affronted, But the Whiggs theyre advanced. (5) Long necked Peggie H------------- Sir, Did weep and stay at home Sir, Cause poor Cobburn and his Wife Were forcd to flee the Town Sir,
(6) And after they were gone Sir, They went to Stirling Town Sir, They thought with their Heart and Mind To get Poor Jamie home Sir. (7) But they were disappointed, And their Wicked Plots disjointed, Well make them all run and Cry Oh! were disappointed. (8) Their Highland King for fear Sir, Was put in such a stier Sir, We made his Breecks have such stink, That none coud him come near Sir. (9) Macdonald is his Name Sir, Of him you may think shame Sir, A Highlander whose Name stinks You Popish Rogue go Home Sir. (10) The Chess-windows did reel Sir, Like to a Spinning Wheel Sir; For Dagon he is falln now I hope hell never rise Sir.
