202 CLARSACH NA COILLE.
B' fheàrr gur mise 'bhuadhaicheadh
Fail le 'n cuirte cruaidh-slmaim ort ;
Cha b'fhear gun àdh 's an uair sin mi,
'N uair bhuannaichinn tliu fein
Ach 's cruaidh an càs ma 's fuatharachd
Gheibh mi an àite truacantachd,
B' fheàrr dhomh mar-a buannaich mi
A bhi 's an uaigh a ^^ein.
Co chuala riamh no cliunnaic e
Na fhuair ad nàdar tuinneachadh ;
Gach uaisle tha 'm Babi Fullarton
Air cruinneachadh 'na ere.
Ge b' e do tlioil-sa diùltadh rium,
Cha 'n onair dhomh bhi dioghaltach :
Mo shoraidh-sa gu dùrachdach
Do d' bhroilleach ciibhraidh fein.

Le Anndra MAf-AN-EAsBuiG an uair a shiubhail
a bhean agus a fhuair e naigheachd bàis a dhithisd
bhràithrean, Sir Alastair a chaochail ann am Aix la
Chapell, agus Caiptein Iain a mharbhadh ann an
Reyzerwerts.
Sir Alexander M'Lean of Otter was a man of much
prominence in his day. He fought at the battle of
Sherriffmuir.
Gur a cràiteach an othail
Tha an dràst a tigh'nn fotham
Ann an damhair an fhoghair 's na buana.
