When she is reported to have said, as recorded in a previous chapter, "That man gart me greet sore, and grat never tear," is this expression, so distinctively and strongly Scots, a translation from some more elegant murmur in another language? She who had so many tongues, had she left out that in which she had been born, the language of her childhood and of her country?
Why have you made a heart that can have pity on both the murdered and the murderer! Gart, go home. Take him home, Mariet, and wash his hands!" "To whom do you lie, priest?" asks Haggart, slowly. "To God or to the devil? To yourself or to the people? Or to everybody?" He laughs bitterly. "Eh, Gart! You are drunk with blood." "And with what are you drunk?" They face each other.
"If I get a dwam here," he toucht, "it's by wi' Tam Dale." And he signalled for the lads to pu' him up. And it seemed the solan understood about signals. For nae sooner was the signal made than he let be the rope, spried his wings, squawked out loud, took a turn flying, and dashed straucht at Tam Dale's een. Tam had a knife, he gart the cauld steel glitter.
Hello, abbot," says Haggart with indifference, and resumes examining the little ship. Khorre mutters: "That's the way, be firm, Noni." "Who made this toy?" asks Haggart, but no one replies. "Hello, Gart!" says Mariet, smiling. "It is I, your wife, Mariet. Let me untie your hands." With a smile, pretending that she does not notice the stains of blood, she unfastens the ropes.
Did you understand what he said?" The few who remained are more hasty in their movements. Some of them politely bid Haggart farewell. "Good-bye, Gart." "I am thinking, Haggart, what kind of a church we need. This one will not do, it seems. They prayed here a hundred years; now it is no good, they say. Well, then, it is necessary to have a new one, a better one. But what shall it be?"
I jist gaed to the coachman and gart him put his horses tu, and tak his denner wi' him, and m'unt the box, and drive straucht awa til Aberdeen, and lea' the carriage whaur I boucht it, and du siclike wi' the horses, and come hame by the co'ch. As he ended the sad tale, he glanced up at Kirsty, and saw her regarding him with a look such as he had never seen, imagined, or dreamed of before.
And then he gart to unarm him, and beat him with thorns all naked, and sithen put him down in a deep dungeon, where he knew many of his fellows. But when Sir Ector saw Sir Lionel, then made he great sorrow. Alas, brother, said Sir Ector, where is my brother Sir Launcelot? Fair brother, I left him asleep when that I from him yode, under an apple-tree, and what is become of him I cannot tell you.
Let me kill him, and you will feel as joyful and care-free as a seagull. Say 'yes, Mariet." "No; you shouldn't do it, Gart. It will be painful to you." Haggart looks at her and speaks with deep irony. "Is that it? Well, then, it is not true that you give me anything. You don't know how to give, woman." "I am your wife." "No! A man has no wife when another man, and not his wife, grinds his knife.
"The sailor is displeased. Look, how wan his face is." "Yes, he looks like the evil one when he is compelled to listen to a psalm. But I don't like Wild Gart, either. No. Where did he come from?" They resume their whispers. Haggart complains softly: "Why have you the same name, Mariet, for everybody? It should not be so in a truthful land."
"Ye little limmer!" cried Margaret, seizing her by the shoulder, "what gart ye rin awa'? I dinna want ye, ye brat!" "I didna rin awa', Auntie." "Robert Bruce cried on ye to come in, himsel'." "It wis himsel' that sent me to Laurie Lumley's to tell him to come till him direckly." Margaret could not make "head or tail" of it. But as Annie had never told her a lie, she could not doubt her.
