Alas, this treach'ry gave thy foes the day, For Wallace had no horse to sweep away The archer's flying arrows thickly round Litt'ring with dead the Scottish battle ground.
His men he slowly draws from off the field : For unto numbers he is forced to yield, Tho' stubbornly he leaves the blood stained plain, Where Scottish blood had all been poured in vain ; Where fell that hero-patriot John de Graham, With many a patriot, many a noble name ; Now Wallace seeks the Torwood's woody shade, And finds... a shelter 'neath its woody glade.
For Wallace knows each bush, each brake, and tree, And soon he'd made the haughty southern flee Had they but come within the lonely wood, A welcome they'd received both rough and rude ; So Edward sounds the halt to England's host, And camps on Falkirk's field.
And what of thee, Brave Wallace, is thy ardent soul subdued ? Reverses only have weak hearts subdued. Thine's not the heart to murmur and repine, Thy country wrongs were graved on heart of thine. The battle o'er, Wallace thou sought the north, And left the windings of the crystal Forth.
