I know you. What right have you to be on the premises? Didn't I send you about your business this morning?" "Ay, sir, but ye didna pay me my wages," said Malcolm, who had sprung to the door and now stood holding it half shut, while Mr Crathie pushed it half open. "No matter. You're nothing better than a housebreaker if you enter any building about the place." "I brak nae lock," returned Malcolm.
Duncan had two sons, Malcolm and Donalbain, and he deemed it disloyal to hope that his son Fleance should rule Scotland.

"And why?" "I canna tell ye." She supposed it an unreasoned antipathy.
