The chirurgeon skipped to the door, and for a moment she hoped that she was rid of him, but he had only gone to bring in a neat case with which his groom was in waiting outside, whence he extracted a lotion and sponge, speaking rapidly as he did so. "Now, madam," said Jean Kennedy, "lift the lassie, there, turn back her boddice, and we will bathe her shouther. So! By my halidome!" "Ah!
Women don't really care; it's only what's put into their heads." "That's much the same as saying to a starving man: 'You don't really want anything; it's only what's put into your head! You are begging the question, my friend." But nothing was more calculated to annoy Halidome than to tell him he was "begging the question," for he prided himself on being strong in logic. "That be d -d," he said.
"Hout awa' wi' your gentility," replied the Bailie: "carry your gentle bluid to the Cross, and see what ye'll buy wi't. But, if I were to come, wad ye really and soothfastly pay me the siller?" "I swear to ye," said the Highlander, "upon the halidome of him that sleeps beneath the gray stane at Inche-Cailleach." "Say nae mair, Robin say nae mair. We'll see what may be dune.
I could tell you such jests I have cracked between the foot of a ladder and the top of the gallows, that, by my halidome, I have been obliged to do my job rather hastily, for fear the fellows should die with laughing, and so shame my mystery!"

"And are you?" he asked. "Not yet," said Shelton grimly; "I 'm engaged."
Where is the roll of fencible men liable to do suit and service to the Halidome? Send off to the Baron of Meigallot; he can raise threescore horse and better Say to him the Monastery will compound with him for the customs of his bridge, which have been in controversy, if he will show himself a friend at such a point.

The face of Shelton's friend beyond, composed, satirical as ever, was clothed with a mask of scornful curiosity, as if he had been listening to something that had displeased him not a little. The goggle-eyed man was yawning. Shelton turned to Halidome: "Can you stand this sort of thing?" said he. "No; I call that scene a bit too hot," replied his friend.
