BANNATYNE MS.
Sail lordis and ladeis die & rot
Or sail thay stynk that smellis now sweit
Sail wormis thame brese abowt the throt 35
Quhair goldin colleris hingis so meit
Quhen thay ar prickit in a scheit
Than lost is all thair ryaltie

Wald god to that we cowld tak heid
And graith our sawlis the reddy way
