" Great is my love to thee, Though I will not make a display of it, Son of the man with whom the Brealseans would rise
in arms, Son of, &c."
" Beloved of the women of Loch Treig And Strath Ossian of pleasant meadows, Who have badgers and deer in their pantries, Who, &c."

" Another tribe of the Clan,— The clan Tain from Mnin (the anvil), They are the men that would go into the conflict
fearlessly, Who go into the conflict fearlessly."
" Many a youthful hero, With the quiver behind his shield, Will come to thee from the wings of Mel-Na-larig, Will, &c."
" That would answer thy call ; Without fear, without ailment,
When thou raisest the fiery cross for deeds illustrious, When, &c."
