and ane I ; Ane wreche fall haif no mair, Bot
ane fchort fcheit, at heid and fcit, For all his

wrek and wair.
For all the wrak a wreche can pak>
And in his baggis imbrace,
Zit Deid fall tak him be the bak,
And gar him cry, Allace !
Than fall he fwak away with lak,
And wait nocht to quhat place ;
Than will thay mak at him a knak,
That maift of his gud hais,
With ane O and ane I :
Quhyle we haif tyme and fpace,
Mak we gud cheir, quhyle we 'are' heir,
And thank God of his grace.
Wer thair ane king to rax and ring
Amang gude fallowis cround,
Wrechis wald wring, and mak murnyng,
For dule thay fuld be dround ;
