14 THE BATTLE OP OTTEEBODENE.
For to God I make myne avowe Thys day wyll I not fie."
The blodye harte in the Dowglas armes, «
Hys standerde stode on hye ; That every man myght full well knowe ;
By syde stode starres thre.
The whyte lyon on the Ynglysh parte,
Forsoth, as I yow sayne, to
The lucetts and the cressawnts both; The Skotts faught them agayne.
Uppon Sent Andrewe lowde cane they crye, And thrysse they schowte on hyght,
And syne marked them one owr Ynglysshe men,»s As I have tolde yow ryght.
Sent George the bryght, owr ladyes knyght,
To name they were full fayne ; Owr Ynglysshe men they cryde on hyght,
And thrysse the schowtte agayne. so
Wyth that, scharpe arowes bygan to flee,
I tell yow in sertayne ; Men of armes byganne to joyne,
Many a dowghty man was ther slayne.
The Percy and the Dowglas mette, w
That ether of other was fayne; |
