'I winna do 't again, an' I'm deein', I tell ye I'm deein', and that'll clear a' scores o' this side ony gait, she added. They lifted her upon the mattress, and made her more comfortable than perhaps she had ever been in her life. But it was only her illness that made her capable of prizing such comfort.

One of the most common is that of 'ae', or perhaps, 'ai', pronounced not unlike those letters in the French verb 'hair', to hate. The letter 'y' frequently follows 'd' in the same syllable. Thus the word which signifies a woman is 'dyin'; although the structure of our language requires us to spell it 'deein'. But if they sometimes put us to difficulty, many of our words were to them unutterable.
If A'd no talk about Tam would ye talk aboot ye'sel's? Naw! Ye'd go oop an' doon, fichtin' an' deein' wi'oot a waird. If ye'll talk aboot ye'sel's A'll no talk aboot Tam. A' knaw ma duty, Mister Carter A'm the offeecial boaster o' the wing an' the coor, an' whin they bring me doon wi' a bullet in ma heid, A' hope ye'll engage anither like me." "There isn't another like you, Tam," laughed Carter.
A ghastly air hung about him, as if he had just come back from Hades, but in his silent bearing there was a sanity, even dignity, which strangely impressed her. He came forward a pace or two, stopped, and said, "Dinna be frichtit, mem. I'm come. Sen' the lassie hame an' du wi' me as ye like. I canna haud aff o' me. But I think I'm deein', an' ye needna misguide me."
An' it was a man like you 'at sae near lost yer life for the hizzy!" she exclaimed. "I maunna think aboot it, or I winna sleep a wink. Weel, my man, ye may haud up yer heid afore the father o' ye, for ye're the first o' the race, I'm thinkin', 'at ever was near han' deein' for anither. But mak ye a speedy en' till 't noo, laad, an' fa' to the lave o' yer wark. There's a terrible heap to be dune.
"It's no in natur'!" she cried. What are ye stan'in' like that for as gray mou'd 's a deein' skate?" For the first time in his life, Malcolm, young and strong as he was, felt sick. Sea and sky grew dim before him, and the earth seemed to reel under him. "I dinna believe 't," he faltered and turned away. "Ye dinna believe what I tell ye!" screeched the wrathful Partaness. "Ye daur to say the word!"

'I doobt I'm gaein' to dee, Robert, he said at length one evening as the lad sat by his bedside. 'Weel, that winna do ye nae ill, answered Robert, adding with just a touch of bitterness 'ye needna care aboot that. 'I do not care aboot the deein' o' 't.
But there are guid eeses and better eeses, and things canna aye be putten to their best eeses; only, whaur they can, it's a shame to put them to ony ither but their best! Noo, what's the best eese o' a man? what's a man made for? And hoo is he to dee that? Jist by deein the wull o' God.

"The nurses are here?" said Faversham after a pause. "Aye," said the shepherd, turning toward his cottage, "but they can do nowt. The childer are marked for deein afore they're sick."
"I've thowt o' deein'," he said with a catch of his breath. "I've thowt o' deein', an' I've wondered how it wur an' what it felt like. I never thowt o' deein' like this here." Another pause and then "Which o' yo' lads 'll tell my missus?" "Ay! poor chap, poor chap!" wailed the women. "Who on 'em will?" "Howd tha noise, wenches," he said hoarsely. "Yo' daze me.
