Sitting at Flaherty's in the parlour, with the door open, and all the McBrides which was in it was in the outer room taking a toombler o' punch I trated 'em to but not drinking not a man out o' the way when in comes that gentlewoman. Old McB. Soft, why? Mighty soft cratur ever since he was born, plase your honour, though he's my son. Mr. Carv. Go on, Philip. Phil. So some one having tould Mrs.
"Only," said Robert, in final warning, "dinna ye lat them tak ye, Gibbie, an' score yer back again, my cratur; an' dinna ye answer naebody, whan they speir what ye're ca'd, onything mair nor jist Gibbie." The boy laughed and nodded, and, as Janet said, the bairn's nick was guid 's the best man's word. Now came a happy time for the two boys.
"And hoo cam' ye to see that ye wad hae been a' the better o' a wee mair pooer to read the heart?" "Whan the cratur was deein', the string o' his tongue, whether that string lay in his mou', or in his brain, was lousened, and he spak' plain, and he praised God."
"And hark'ee, lad," cried Haco, again springing up and confronting the groom, "d'ye see this young 'ooman?" "Sure I do," replied Dan, with a smile and a nod to Susan, "an' a purty cratur she is, for the eye of man to rest upon." "And," shouted Haco, shaking his enormous fist within an inch of the other's nose, "d'ye see them there knuckles?"
They will never believe me when I go home and tell 'em I went without it for thirty-two mortal days." "Well, you have had wine, O'Grady." "It's poor stuff by the side of the cratur, still I am not saying that it wasn't a help. But it was cold comfort, Terence, a mighty cold comfort." "You are looking well on it, anyhow. And how is the wound?"
"Ye're the bonniest cratur o' a muckle idiot 'at ever man saw!" she cried; "an' gien ye dinna tak the better care, ye'll be soopit aff to haiven afore ye ken whaur ye are or what ye're aboot."
Here, Rob, tak the cratur, an' pit a tow aboot its neck, an' a stane to the tow, an' fling't into the Glamour." Annie, not waiting to parley, darted from the house with the kitten. "Rin efter her, Rob," said Bruce, "an' tak' it frae her, and droon't. We canna hae the hoose swarmin'." Bob bolted after her, delighted with his commission.
'These, however, said he, 'I'll soon cast out from her, and then the woman will be a holy cratur, much better than she ever was before. A very learned man was Father Hogan, especially in casting out divils, and a portly, good-looking man too, only he had a large rubicon nose, which people said he got by making over free with the cratur in sacret.
Capture thim all, even to that cratur," pointing to a little, thin, spiteful-looking man, with a face much like a weasel's. His skin was the colour of the leaf of the silver poplar, his eyes were very quick, and they snapped and scintillated upon the smallest provocation.
In a few seconds the little monkey got up and gently pawed the old one; then, on receiving no sign of recognition, it uttered a faint wail, something like "Wee-wee-wee-wee-oo!" and again hid its face in the breast of its dead parent. "Ah! the poor cratur," said Briant, in a tone of voice that betrayed his emotion. "O, why did ye kill her?"
