Our Scottish forefathers in the battle-field struggled forward, he says, “red-wat shod;” giving, in this one word, a full vision of horror and carnage, perhaps too frightfully accurate for Art!

It is when they sing of 'patriot battles won of old,' where Scot and Southron met, 'red-wat shod,' that the strain rises to its clearest, and 'stirs the heart like the sound of a trumpet.'

Oft have our fearless fathers strode By Wallace' side, Still pressing onward, red-wat shod, Or glorious died.

Oft have our fearless fathers strode By Wallace’ side, Still pressing onward, red-wat shod, Or glorious dy’d.
