ffor sum ar sene at sermonis / seme sa halye
Singand sanct dauidis psalter on \>air bukis
and ar bot biblistis fairsing full fair bellie
Bakbytand nytboris noyand fame 1 in nwikis
Ruging and raifand vp kirk rentis lyke ruikis 125
as werrie waspis / aganis goddis word makis weir
Sic christianis to Ids w1 chauceris kuikis
God gife fe grace aganis fis gude new 3eir
Dewtie and dettis ar drevin be dowbilnes
Auld folkis ar flemit fra 3ung fay* professors 130
The grittest ay / The grediar I geft
To plant quhair preistis and ^ersonis wer possessor's
Teindis ar vptane be testament transgressor's
Credence is past / Off promeifc tho* thai sweir
To punisch papistis / and reproche oppressouris 135
God gif fe grace aganis fis gude new ^eir
Pure folk ar famist / w* fir fassionis new
Thai faill for fait fat had befoir at fouth
Leill labouraris Lamentis / and tennentis trew
That f ai ar hurt and hareit north and south 140
The heidismen hes cor mundum in fair mouth
Bot nevir w* mynd to gif fe man his meir
To quenche fir quent calamiteis so cowth
God gife fe grace aganis fis gude new Ben-
Protest andis takis fe freiris auld antetewme 145
Reddie ressauaris / bot to rander nocht
So lairdis vpliftis mennis leising ouir thy rewme
And ar rycht crabit quhen fai crave fame ocht
Page 244 Be thai vnpayit / thy pursevandis ar socht fol. 91 b
To pund pure communis come and cattell keir 150
To wisy all fir wrangus worlds ar wrocht
God gife fe grace aganis fis gude new 3eir
