“Beshrew thee for a bloody Scot,
If thou'st not done what I could not!”
Said Sutherland, as turning by—
But seeing the tear in Ross's eye,
And sorrow on his nut-brown cheek
So deep that word he could not speak,
The burly chief he kindly press'd
Unto his bold and kindred breast.
If thou'st not done what I could not!”
Said Sutherland, as turning by—
But seeing the tear in Ross's eye,
And sorrow on his nut-brown cheek
So deep that word he could not speak,
The burly chief he kindly press'd
Unto his bold and kindred breast.
