"What is that you say, Edie?" said Oldbuck, hoping, perhaps, that his ears had betrayed their duty "what were you speaking about!" "About this bit bourock, your honour," answered the undaunted Edie; "I mind the bigging o't." "The devil you do! Why, you old fool, it was here before you were born, and will be after you are hanged, man!"

Now, if he has really imposed the bourock on ye for an ancient wark, it's my real opinion the bargain will never haud gude, if you would just bring down your heart to try it at the law, and say that he beguiled ye."
