/ 'Twas the turn o' the nicht when a' was quate / An' niver a licht to see, / That Death cam' stappin' the clachan through / As the kirk knock chappit three.
An' even forrit he keepit the road, / Nor lookin' to either side, / But heidin' straucht for the eastmost hoose / Whaur an auld wife used to bide.
