But when the name of Allan Bane,
Lochaber's calm and mighty thane,
Was call'd, there was no grumbling sound,
Nor aught but plaudits floated round.
The gather'd thousands seem'd to feel,
That Heaven had chosen for their weal;
For lord was none, in sway or fame,
In all the land, of equal name.
Lochaber's calm and mighty thane,
225
Nor aught but plaudits floated round.
The gather'd thousands seem'd to feel,
That Heaven had chosen for their weal;
For lord was none, in sway or fame,
In all the land, of equal name.
