  1. Poem 13th July 1937
    Up the heathery mountain,
    Down the rushy glen,
    We daren't go a hunting
    For fear of little men;
    Wee folk, good folk,
    Trooping all together,
    Green jacket, red cap,
    And white owl's feather.
    Up the heathery mountain
    Down the rushy glen,
    We daren't go a hunting
    For fear of little men;
    Wee folk, good folk,
    Trooping all together,
    Green jacket, red cap,
    And white owl's feather.
