[With elegies, sad songs, and murning layes]

With elegies, sad songs, and murning layes,
Quhill Craig his Kala wald to pitie moue,
Poore braine-sicke man! he spends his dearest dayes;
Such sillie rime can not make women loue.
Morice quho sight of neuer saw a booke
With a rude stanza this faire Virgine tooke.
