_ L V TUE NA - THE SKIIIMI.SII. FROM WALTER SCOTTB NEW POEM, "THE LORD OF' IHE ISLES." "What train of dust, with trumpet sound And glimmering spears, it wheeling round Our leftward flank?"—the Monarch cried, To Moray's earl who rode beside, "Lo! round thy station pass the foes ! Randolph thy wreath has lost a rose."--- The Earl his visor closed, and said, " My wreath shall bloom, or life shall Me. Follow, my household !"—And they go Like lightning on the advancing file. " My liege," said noble Douglas then, " Earl Randolph has but one to ten; Let me go forth his band to aid," I' Stir not. The error lie bath made, Let him amend it as he may ; I will not weaken mine aria)." Then rose the conflict cry, And Douglas's brave heart swell'd high, "My liege," he said. " with patient ear I must not Moray's death knell hear." "Then go—but speed thee back again." Forth sprung the Donglas with his train; But when they won a rising hill. He bade his followers hold them still.— "See, see! the routed Southern fly; The Earl bath won the victory. to! where 3on steeds run masterless, His banner towers above the press. Rein up; our presence would impair The fame me came too late to share." Back to the host the Douglas rode, And soon glad tidings are abroad, That, Dayncotort by stout Randolph slain, His followers fled with loosened rein, That skirmish closed the busy day, And co‘ncled in battle's prompt array, Each army on their weapons lay. It was a night of lovely June, High rode in cloudless blue the mooni' Demayet smiled beneath her ray; Old Stirling's towers arose in light,/ And twined in links of silver bright Her winding river lay. Ah ! gentle Planet, other sight Shall giect thee, next returning night, Of broken arms and banners tore, And marshes dark with liftman gore, And piles of slaughtered men and horse, And Forth that floats the (recruit cone, And many a wounded wretch to plain Beneath thy silver light in vain! But now, from England's host, the cry Thon hear'st of wassail revelry, While frOni the Scottish legions pass The n►nr►nur'd prayer, the early mass ! Here numbers had presumption given ; There, bands u'crinatcled sought aid tom Heaven. ,•/ 0 • .4. 010• 10110111. " 11111 " +Or ...4011101walliheeoh. 11:74. MMOlk .~~.~..~ 1~ i I: . . _ .........
