Yet whenever one of the children I so much longed to play with down on the paved roadway beneath our tower caught sight of it he rose instantly out of the dust and hurled oaths and ill-words at me aye, and oftentimes other missiles that hurt even worse at a little lonely boy who was breaking his heart with loving him up there on the tower.
That minute, through the open hall-door, I perceived Jael sauntering leisurely home from market. Now, if I was a coward, it was not for myself this time. The avalanche of ill-words I knew must fall but it should not fall on him, if I could help it. "Jump up on your cart, John. Let me see how well you can drive. There good-bye, for the present. Are you going to the tan-yard?"
Will you come ben a minute?" He responded at once to her desire "What is it, Maggie?" he asked. "If it please you, sir, I dinna want Davie to ken anything anent to-night's ill-words and ill-wark." "I think that is a very wise decision." "No gude can come o' telling what's ill, and if you wad believe me, sir, I'm vera, vera sorry, for my share in it."
It was said of him that no one knew whether he called himself Liberal or Conservative At fifty-five he was put upon the bench, simply because he was supposed to possess a judicial mind. Here he amply justified that opinion, but not without the sneer and ill-words of many. He was now seventy, and it was declared that years had had no effect on him.
"May I be forgiven for uttering those ill-words," exclaimed the monk, as though speaking to himself. "We are taught to forgive our enemies. But I cannot forgive her!" "Why?" I asked. "She has desecrated the house of God," he replied in a low tense voice. Two hours later I was back with Lola and Madame Duperré at the Hôtel Victoria at Pisa.
And now the fifth rede: As fair as thou seest Brides on the bench abiding, Let not love's silver Rule over thy sleeping; Draw no woman to kind kissing! For the sixth thing, I rede When men sit a-drinking Amid ale-words and ill-words, Dead thou naught With the drunken fight-staves For wine stealeth wit from many.
On the other hand, the ill-words which you have spoken of me, and the way in which you sought to put me to shame, I count to be worth full as great an atonement as the burning of a few sheds, of the stealing of a few cheeses. So that for money we stand equal. One thing more I would say, Beware lest you seek again to do me evil. So spake Gunnar, and no man said him nay.
