Ye suldna hae kend a word about it, an I had thought it was to spoil your dinner, hinny." "Fed, or unfed," exclaimed Morton, "saddle the horses instantly, Cuddie. We must not rest until we get before the Castle." And, resisting all Ailie's entreaties, they instantly resumed their journey. Morton failed not to halt at the dwelling of Poundtext, and summon him to attend him to the camp.
With such dispositions and propensities, it is not a matter to be wondered at that the good ladies, while arranging the tea-table, should suddenly remember some forgotten article of Ailie's wardrobe, and rush simultaneously into the child's bedroom to rectify the omission; or, when thus engaged, be filled with horror at the thought of having left the buttered toast too near the fire in the parlour.
"What is our life? it is even a vapour, which appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away." Rab all this time had been full awake and motionless; he came forward beside us: Ailie's hand, which James had held, was hanging down, it was soaked with his tears; Rab licked it all over carefully, looked at her, and returned to his place under the table.
