When Johnnie Cope he heard o' this
He said tae himself it widnae be amiss
Gin I saddle my horse in readiness
Tae gang a flee in the morning

 

[limr11]

This equality of men by nature, the judicious Hooker looks upon as so evident in itself, and beyond all question,

 

[snowbear95]

Bye noo Johnnie get up and rin
The heiland bagpipes mak a din
Its better tae sleep wi' a hale skin
It'll be a bloody morning

 

[snowbear95]

When Johnnie Cope tae Dunbar came
They speired at him, "where's a' your men?"
The deil confound me I dinnae ken
I left them a' in the morning

 

[limr11]

that he makes it the foundation of that obligation to mutual love amongst men, on which he builds the duties they owe on another, and from whence he derives the great maxims of justice and charity. His words are,

 

[snowbear95]

Hey Johnnie Cope are ye walking yet?
And are your drums a-beating yet?
If you were walking I would wait
Tae gang tae the coals in the morning

 

[limr11]

"The like natural inducement hath brought men to know that it is no less their duty, to love others than themselves;

 

[snowbear95]

Come noo Johnnie ye werenae plait
Tae come wi' the news o' your ane defeat
And leave your men in sic a state
Sae early in the morning

 

[limr11]

for seeing those things which are equal, must needs all have one measure;

 

[snowbear95]

Wait quo' Johnnie I got sic' flegs
Wi' their claymores and philabegs
Gin I meet them again Deil brak' my legs
I bid you all good morning

 

[snowbear95]

Hey Johnnie Cope are ye walking yet?
And are your drums a-beating yet?
If you were walking I would wait
Tae gang tae the coals in the morning

if I cannot but wish to receive good, even as much at every man's hands, as any man can wish unto his own soul, how should I look to have any part of my desire herein satisfied, unless myself be careful to satisfy the like desire, which is undoubtedly in other men, being of one and the same nature?

 

[limr11]

To have any thing offered them repugnant to this desire, must needs in all respects grieve them as much as me;

 

[limr11]

so that if I do harm, I must look to suffer, there being no reason that others should shew greater measure of love to me, than they have by me shewed unto them.
