Like Wallace he betrayed no one. He never made an Oath. James was a foreign King to Cornwall. If we were to believe your version of events then we'd be believing that Cornwall never had the guts to fight the sassenach English.

@@alanbbrady8196 Not exactly. Cornwall was loyal to the Crown during the civil war and to the monarchy on the restoration. It is said that some in Cornwall although loyal to James were unhappy that Trelawny was imprisoned in the Tower for refusing liberties given by the King to Catholics and maybe some people from Cornwell contemplated rebelling/protesting, but there's no actual evidence that anything actually happened or there was any ever any threat from Cornwall against the throne. This was in 1688 and in 1689 William of Orange usurped the Throne of England and the the Protestant Ascendancy began. This song was written a couple of centuries afterwards and is just weaving a narrative of Cornishmen defending muscular Protestantism, whereas in truth there were many Recusants in Cornwall. See the 1549 Prayer book Rebellion. Christianity came to Cornwall from Ireland and was there for a long time when much of the rest of England was heathen.✌

also it is a bit different from William Wallace who indeed said I couldn't betray King Edward I, because I am not his subject. Wallace the English King's men tortured and then ripped out the entrails, and had him hung drawn and quartered. Trelawny was held for three weeks on remand awaiting trial for sedition most probably in reasonable comfort.
