BETEAYED BT DOUGLAS. 97
" To the Lord Hume I will thee bring;
He is well knowne a true Scots lord,
And he will lose both land and life,
Ere he with thee will break his word." ' '. IOoi Jii 111; iL
" Much is my woe," Lord Percy sayd, 85
" When I thinke on my own' counirte,
When I thinke on the heavye happe My friends have suffered there for mee.
" Much is my woe," Lord Percy sayd,
"And sore'those wars my minde distresse; °°
Where many a widow lost her mate, And many a child was fatherle'sse. |
||
|
" And now that I a banisht man
Shold bring such evil happe with mee,
To cause my faire and noble friends m
To be suspect of treacherie,
" This rives my heart with double woe;
And lever had I dye this day, Than thinke a Douglas can be false,
Or ever he will his guest betray." 100
" If you'll give me no trust, my lord,
Nor unto mee no credence yield, Yet step one moment here aside,
He showe you all your foes in field."
vol. vti. 7 |
