So now Geordie climbed nonchalantly to a seat over the old persecutor, crossed his stout, bare legs, filled an imaginary pipe, and rattled the three farthings in his pocket. "I'm 'Jinglin' Geordie' Heriot," he announced. "I'll show ye hoo a prood goldsmith ance smoked wi' a'."

I'm maist as guid's a man to gang wi' ye wi' the advantage o' bein' a wuman, as my mither tells me:" She called her grandmother, MOTHER. "ye see we can daur mair nor ony man but, Guid forgie me! no mair nor the yoong laird whan he flang his CAESAR straucht i' the maister's face this verra mornin'." The laird stopped, turned sharply round, and looked at her. "What did he that for?" he said.
In a moment, John's natural temper conquered him; he jumped to his feet, and said passionately, "How daur ye, sir? Get out o' my house, you sinfu' lad!" Then, with a great cry he smote his hands together and bowed his head upon them, weeping slow, heavy drops, that came each with a separate pang. His agony touched David, though he scarcely comprehended it.
So little did he know him, he suspected him of pretending to be more hurt than he was. "Touch me gien ye daur," cried Agnes, as she stooped to remove his legs from the form. "Leave him alone," shouted the master, and seizing her, pulled her away, and flung her from him that she almost fell.
She's the wale o' the country for beauty, and a gude friend o' mine I gang by the bridewell as safe as by the kirk on a Sabbath deil ony o' them daur hurt a hair o' auld Edie's head now; I keep the crown o' the causey when I gae to the borough, and rub shouthers wi' a bailie wi' as little concern as an he were a brock."
"'At nane cud ken sae weel 's hersel' it was a damned lee. Wha is she?" "Wha but Meg Partan's Lizzy!" "Puir lassie! is that it? Eh, but I'm sorry for her! She never said it was me. An' whaever said it, surely ye dinna believe 't o' me, mem?" "Me believe 't! Malcolm MacPhail, wull ye daur insult a maiden wuman 'at's stude clear o' reproch till she's lang past the danger o' 't?
Still, taking my luminous compass, I set out to steer a cross-country course.

I could do no more than give them the right direction, which I knew they had no chance of holding.
"I dinna ken; if I did not fear a livin' sorrow, I would daur a dead ane," Nelly protested, with a shade of scorn in her levity; "and ye can bide in the house on the soft summer nights. The Lady of Auchtershiel need not daunder by the burn side; she can be countin' her house purse in the still room; but if I were her, I would rather beg my bread."
"Ye are doing what nae mon i' the toon daur; ye are a bauld, unwise lassy." "It's you mak me bauld," was the instant reply. Oh, Sandy Liston, hoow could ye think to put an enemy in your mooth to steal awa your brains!" "This 's no Newhaven chat; wha lairns ye sic words o' power?" "A deed mon!"
