And all in vane I spend :                               no
As thou hes done, sa sail I say, Murne on, I think to mend."

Quhile I may leif but lett; Nevir to faill, as utheris faill,
Quhat grace that evir I gett." " Robene, with the' I will not deill;

Attoure the holtis hair ; Robene murnit, and Makyne lewche ;
Scho sang, he sichit sair : And so left him, bayth wo and wreuch, laa
In dolour and in cair, Kepand his bird under a huche,
Amang the holtis hair.
