When Percelly weareth a hat,
All Pembrokeshire shall weet of that. SCOTLAND.--STIRLINGSHIRE--BANNOCKBURN, 1314. "Maidens of England, sore may ye mourn, For your lemans ye've lost at Bannockburn" ROXBURGH. "Some of his skill he taught to me, And, warrior, I could say to thee, The words that cleft Eildon Hills in three, And bridled the Tweed with a curb of stone." _Scott._ WESTERN ISLES. Seven years before that awful day, When time shall be no more, A watery deluge will o'ersweep Hibernia's mossy shore. The green clad Isla too shall sink, While with the great and good, Columba's happy isle shall rear Her towers above the flood. |
