Munro tells us how a "large-worked stone," a grotesque head, was foisted through a horizontal hole, into the relic bed of his kitchen midden at Elie. "It lay under four inches of undisturbed black earth." But it had been "interpolated" there by some "lousy tykes of Fife," as the anti-covenanting song calls them. It was rather easier to interpolate Blue Point oyster shells at Dunbuie.
Here is a question which we must not leave unexamined or undetermined, nor must we affirm too confidently that there can be no decision; neither must we interpolate in our present long discourse a digression equally long, but if it is possible to set forth a great principle in a few words, that is just what we want.
All members of the company had been warned that to interpolate lines or "business" meant a fine or worse. She did not know what to think.

But of like sort is the daring of much exposition of the Master's words. What men have not faith enough to receive, they will still dilute to the standard of their own faculty of reception.

The first of these tattvas or principles is Śiva, corresponding to the highest Brahman.
"There isn't a doubt but what you saved my life, and I must say " She abruptly removed her hands, showing a wrathful and tear-stained face. "You brute! You coward!" she cried.
