For a while it seemed as if the visit would have to be postponed until it dried, when Mary had an inspiration. "Wrap yer cloud around his head and say you wuz feart of the earache, the day is so cold." This was done and a blanket off one of the beds was pressed into service as an outer wrap for Danny.

Michael explains little Jack's sprinting performance, adding: "It was ivident, yer honner, that the skeert child feart that owld vilyun more than the noime of the law."

"There's anither whause upbringin wasna to blame: my upbringin was a' it oucht to hae been and see hoo ill I turnt oot!" "It wasna what it oucht! I see 't a' plain the noo!

As the middle of the month came nearer, Reuben began to talk despondently to Hannah of his probable gains from his Yorkshire 'boarders. It had been a cold wet summer; he was 'feart' the owners would think he might have taken more care of some of the animals, especially of the young horses, and he mentioned certain ailments springing from damp and exposure for which he might be held responsible.

Speak up, Mysie, an' tell me if you care for me. I want you, an' I maun ken what you think o' it. Come, Mysie, tell me!" "Oh, dinna ask me, Rob," she pleaded. "Dinna ask me!"
