"Do not lift him from the bracken, Leave……" — William Edmondstoune Aytoun

"Do not lift him from the bracken, Leave him lying where he fell- Better bier ye cannot fashion: None beseems him half so well As the bare and broken heather, And the hard and trampled sod, Whence his angry soul ascended To the judgment seat of God!"

— William Edmondstoune Aytoun
