<< Now Wallace comes down from the highlands,
 And Longshanks comes up from the south,
 And many a royal pretender
 is now running off at the mouth.
 
 And some men will die for their hero,
 And many more die for their kings,
 But it needs a good man who's pragmatic,
 To see the chances that this war brings.
 
 So die if you want for your hero
 Or die for a conquest that's royal,
 Or come see what riches they're paying,
 To the troops who are not quite so loyal.
 
 I now am raising my banner,
 So bring your steel and your wood,
 And come cry "A Douglas! A Douglas!"
 And fight for Sir James the Good.
 
 - Sir James Douglas, "the Good"

This is a nice touch. Especially for us that get to live vicariously via the
list.
