tain,The more shall Clan-Alpine exult in her shade.Moored in the rifted rock,Proof to the tempests shock,Firmer he roots him the ruder it blow; Menteith and Breadalbane, then,Echo his praise again, Roderigh Vich Alpine dhu, ho! ieroe! Proudly our pibroch has thrilled in Glen Fruin, And Bannachars groans to our slogan replied,Glen Luss and Boss-dhu, they are smoking in ruin,And the best of Loch-Lomond lie dead on her side.Widow and Saxon maidLonor shall lament our aid,Think of Clan-Alpine with fear and with wo;Lennox and Leven-glenShake when they hear again,* Roderigh Yich Alpine dhu, ho! ieroe ! Row, vassals, row, for the pride of the highlands! Stretch to your oars for the evergreen pine!0 that the rose-bud that graces yon islandsWere wreathed in a garland around him to twine!O that some seedling gem.Worthy such noble stem.Honored and blessed in their shadow might grow!Loud should Clan-Alpine thenRing from the deepmost glen,* Roderigh Vich Alpine dhu, ho! ieroe! * Sir Waltkr Scott. i

The lightning flashes free, —While the hollow oak our pala(;e is, Our heritajje the sea. Allan Cunnincjiiam.^ 1 Allan CuNNiNcnrAivi, born in Scotland in 1785, was tho sonof a gardener.
