'And ye're ganging to Embro? 'When we cam' into Embro Toon We were a seemly sicht to see; Ma luve was in the I dinna mind what ma luve was in 'And I ma'sel in cramoisie,
He called it, and it came, daintily sniffed at his leg, and leaped on his lap, where he stroked and fondled it. "It bothers me," he said, "to imagine how a man like Embro gets any satisfaction out of life, for ever mumbling the bare dry bones of science.

"My certie, mistress! it's ill wark deceivin' Sir Paitrick, if that's what ye've dune. Ye must know, I was ance a bit clerk body in his chambers at Embro "
"My dear Embro," said Julius, and he spoke with an emphasis, and looked down on Embro with a bright vivacity of eye, which forewarned the circle of one of his eloquent flashes: a smile of expectant enjoyment passed round, "hallucination is the dust-heap and limbo of the meanly-equipped man of science to-day, just as witchcraft was a few hundred years ago.

My Lord there is hyte and fykie; there's a gale in his tail, said they, light where it may.
Come now, Lefevre, you tell us what you think of this Paris hospital case." "Presently, Embro," said Lefevre, who had just perceived his friend Courtney. "Ha, Julius!" said he, crossing to him and taking his hand; "you're looking uncommonly well." "Yes," said Julius, "I am well." "And where have you been all this while?" asked the doctor.
