No Tamerlane he, questing for a continent, but David Haggart, the man with the long forks, happy if he snatched his neighbour's purse. Before all things he respected the profession which his left hand made inevitable, and which he pursued with unconquerable pride.
Haggart, I will be your song, your thoughts, Haggart! And if it must be so, let Khorre give gin to little Noni he is a strong boy." "Eh, Mariet?" says Haggart sternly. "Do you perhaps want me to believe you again? Eh, Mariet? Don't talk of that which you do not know, woman. Are the rocks perhaps casting a spell over me and turning my head? Do you hear the noise, and something like voices?
All look at her in silence. Haggart also looks at her bent, alarmed head. "Thank you," he says, straightening his hands. "It would be a good thing to untie my hands, too," said Khorre, but there is no answer. ABBOT Haggart, did you kill Philipp? ABBOT Do you mean to say eh, you, Haggart that you yourself killed him with your own hands?
Without much pressure Haggart retold a story known to the majority of his hearers. He had not the "knack" of managing women apparently when he married, for he and his gipsy wife "agreed ill thegither" at first. Once Chirsty left him and took up her abode in a house just across the wynd.
They have worked have you seen their hands, their backs? If you haven't noticed that, you are a fool! They are tired. They want to rest. Let them rest, even at the cost of the blood of the one you killed. I'll give them each a little, and the rest I will throw out into the sea. Do you hear, Haggart?" "I hear, priest." The abbot exclaims, raising his arms: "O Lord!
Is it true that these stones stop the passersby with the question: 'Where are you going?" "No, they are mute. Why is your land so mournful? It is almost a week since I've seen my shadow. It is impossible! I don't see my shadow." "Our land is very cheerful and full of joy. It is still winter now, but soon spring will come, and sunshine will come back with it. You shall see it, Haggart."
In Auld Licht circles, when one of the company was offered whisky and refused it, the others, as if pained even at the offer, pushed it from them as a thing abhorred. But Davie Haggart set another example on this occasion, and no one had the courage to refuse to follow it.
It was hard to set him that way, he was always falling down. But I did it. ABBOT Why did you do it? HAGGART I don't know exactly. I heard that Philipp has a mother, an old woman, and I thought this might please them better both him and his mother. HAGGART No. What makes you think I am laughing? I am just as serious as you are. Did he did Philipp make this little ship? No one answers.
Haggart also laughs. "Let them sow, we shall reap." "Golden words, Noni. Eh, Tommy, listen to what the Captain is saying. And another thing: Whether you will be angry or not I have broken the music. I have scattered it in small pieces. Show your pipe, Tetyu! Do you see, Noni, I didn't do it at once, no. I told him to play a jig, and he said that he couldn't do it.
"Maybe I could, Sneck," Haggart replied, cautiously; "but on that point I offer no opinion." "If she bides on the Kaims road," said Tibbie Craik, "she maun be a farmer's dochter. What say you to Bell Finlay?" "Na; she's U. P. But it micht be Loups o' Malcolm's sister. She's promised to Muckle Haws; but no doubt she would gie him the go-by at a word frae the minister."
