"I was aye big and buirdly, ye maun understand; a bonny figure o' a woman, though I say it that suldna built to rear bairns braw bairns they suld hae been, and grand I would hae likit it! But I was young, dear, wi' the bonny glint o' youth in my e'en, and little I dreamed I'd ever be tellin' ye this, an auld, lanely, rudas wife! Weel, Mr.
"And I think you will be as little fitted for the rudas men as for the pretty ladies, after all!" says she, when I had done. "But what was your father that he could not learn you to draw the sword? It is most ungentle; I have not heard the match of that in anyone." But you see I do the best I can, and just stand up like Lot's wife and let them hammer at me."
I heard ane o' his gillies bid that auld rudas jaud of a gudewife gie ye that.

I have seen you write fast and fast enough; and for subjects, you have the whole Highlands to write about, and I am sure you know a hundred tales better than that about Hamish MacTavish, for it was but about a young cateran and an auld carlin, when all's done; and if they had burned the rudas quean for a witch, I am thinking, may be they would not have tyned their coals and her to gar her ne'er-do-weel son shoot a gentleman Cameron!

Császár bath, St. Lukács bath, both in Buda, have an old-established reputation for the splendid cures of rheumatism.
