"There's a good light, and company in the sitting-room," she said. "We've three young men staying with us. They've been up the Pike." "I'd sooner stay here, if I may," said Wyllard.

"He, the ill-fa'ard loon!" answered Edie, with much frankness of manner "there wad hae been little speerings o't had Dustansnivel ken'd it was there it wad hae been butter in the black dog's hause." "I thought as much," said Oldbuck.

Sae what's to come o' us I canna weel see I doubt I'll hae to tak the hills wi' the wild whigs, as they ca' them, and then it will be my lo to be shot down like a mawkin at some dikeside, or to be sent to heaven wi' a Saint Johnstone's tippit about my hause."
