"Sae dauntonly, sae wantonly, Sae rantingly gaed he, He play'd a spring, and danced a round, Beneath the gallows tree." "Mr. Mareschal, I am sorry for you," said his grave adviser. "I am obliged to you, Mr. Ratcliffe; but I would not have you judge of our enterprise by my way of vindicating it; there are wiser heads than mine at the work."

Sir Walter Scott - The Black Dwarf
