"Can ye sing it, bird?" said the man, "for I am keen to hear it." "Me sing!" cried the bird, "me that has a voice like a craw! Na, na, I canna sing it, but maybe I can tak ye where ye may hear it. When I was young an auld bogblitter did the same to me, and sae began my education. But are ye willing and brawly willing? for if ye get but a sough of it ye will never mair have an ear for other music."
Edies Ochiltrees, who it is you put off your gibes and your jests upon?" "Brawly, Mr. Dusterdeevil brawly do I ken ye, and has done mony a day; but there's nae jesting in the case, for I am wearying to see ae our treasures; we should hae had baith ends o' the pockmanky filled by this time I hope it's bowk eneugh to haud a' the gear?"
And I am not able to bear my aunt's nag, nag, nag at me. I wish I was married. It isn't right of Andrew to leave me so much to myself. It will be his own fault if he loses me altogether. I am worn out with Aunt Kilgour, and my life is a fair weariness to me." "Andrew is getting everything brawly ready for you. I wish I could tell you what grand plans he has for your happiness.
You must have shifted your quarters. Here is your address," said Mr. Brandon, taking out his pocket-book "'Peggy Walker, at Mr. Thomas Lowrie's, Swinton, shire.

"I brought the bairns into the town for better schooling, and on account of Tam; and grandfather finds it agrees brawly with him, too.
It was a strange and humiliating position, especially after Janet's little motherly bragging about her Christina's silken wedding gown, and brawly furnished floor in Glasgow. Both mother and daughter felt it sorely; and Christina looked at her brother with some little angry amazement, for he appeared to be quite oblivious of their cruel strait.
"This is shurely the end o' the world comin'," said Mistress Kenawee, near greetin'. "O dear me, I think something's genna come ower me." "Tuts 'oman, sit doon," says Dauvid, altho' he was in a fell state aboot her. I cud see that brawly. The sicht o' the puir wafilly budy akinda drave the fear awa frae me; an' I maskit a cup o' tea, an' crackit awa till her till we got her cowshined doon.
Praemia cum poscit medicus, Sathan est. We are angels when we come to cure devils when we ask payment but I will administer a purgation to his purse I warrant him. There is his brother too, a sordid chuff. So ho, there! Saunders Darlet! you have been ill, I hear?" "Just got the turn, as I was thinking to send to your honour, and I am brawly now again it was nae great thing that ailed me."
As frankness is in fashion, I may say that for a while I gave you credit for treason to the house, and treason now it seems to have been, though not so black as I thought. It was MacTaggart who asked you to open the door?" "Wha else? A bonny like cantrip! Nae doot it was because I tauld him Annapla's prophecy aboot a man with the bare feet. The deil's buckie! Ye kent yersel' brawly wha it was."
"Hoots, haivers, Maister Ralph, gin Jock has providit for you that needs a' things as gin ye war in a graund hoose, dinna be feared for Jock, that can eat a wamefu' o' green heather-taps wi' the dew on them like a bit flafferin' grouse bird. Jock can fend for himsel' brawly. Sillar wad only tak' the edge aff his genius."
Mause, who had been an ancient domestic in the family, was a sort of favourite with Lady Margaret, and presumed accordingly. Lady Margaret had herself set forth, and her authority could not be appealed to. In this dilemma, the good genius of the old butler suggested an expedient.
