This phrase gentlemen, requires some explanation. It does not refer to Ireland and its agrarian grievances. No, no. It was only a few choice spirits of the Rangers who, determined to win all matches, used to practice at full moon, and frequently frightened some of the belated lieges in the vicinity of Kinning Park, who swore the place was haunted. ~Charles M'Quarrie.~
The foreign garrison of Waterford was surprised and captured by Cormac McCarthy, Prince of Desmond, and Henry II. having prohibited all intercourse between his lieges and his disobedient subject, Earl Richard, the latter had despatched Raymond the Fat, with the most humble submission of himself and his new possessions to his Majesty's decision.
Then he went in to Mahdiyah and took her maidenhead and abode with her ten days; after which he committed the kingdom to his uncle Al-Damigh, charging him to rule the lieges justly, and journeyed with his women and warriors, till he came to the ships laden with the treasures and rarities which Ra'ad Shah had sent him, and divided the monies among his men who from poor became rich.
After we left the negro houses, I perceived, with some surprise, that my captors kept the beaten tract, leading directly to, and past the overseer's dwelling. "Come, here is a chance, at all events," argued I to myself. "If I get within hail, I will alarm the lieges, if a deuced good pipe don't fail me."
"Caitiff!" exclaimed the merchant; "I'll have thy old vagabond bones in the Fleet for daring so to cheat his Grace's lieges." "If you can prove a cheat against me I will readily abye it, Sir," returned the beggar. "Palming a beggar's brat off for a noble dame." "So please you, Sir," interrupted the beggar, "keep truth with you. What did the child or I ever profess, save what we were?
Quoth Sasan, "By Allah, needs must I cast him into such calamity that neither earth shall support him nor sky shall shadow him! I did but speak him fair and show him favour because of my lieges and my lords, lest they incline to him; but right soon shalt thou see what shall betide." Then he left her and went out to order the affairs of the realm.
'With your pardon, said Alan, calmly, but resolutely, 'I must ask a more serious answer. 'Why, Mr. Advocate, answered Summertrees, 'I thought it was your business to give advice to the lieges, and not to take it from poor stupid country gentlemen. 'If not exactly advice, it is sometimes our duty to ask questions, Mr. Maxwell.
My lieges keep a' their happiness to themselves; but let bowls row wrang wi' them, and I am sure to hear of it." "And to whom else can we carry our complaints but to your Majesty, who is Heaven's vicegerent over us!" answered Nigel. "Right, man, right very weel spoken," said the king; "but you should leave Heaven's vicegerent some quiet on earth, too."
To secure their triumph a royal order was published that all the lieges should swear to observe the ordinances of the council; and a letter was written to the Pope in the name of the parliament, complaining of the King's brothers, soliciting the deposition of the Bishop of Winchester, and requesting the aid of a legate to coöperate with them in the important task of reforming the state of the kingdom.
I would have you pass like true men from this very place to the King's Grace's presence, raise him from his royal rest, and presenting to him the piteous case of our being called forth from our beds at this season, with little better covering than these shirts, I would show him this bloody token, and know from his Grace's own royal lips whether it is just and honest that his loving lieges should be thus treated by the knights and nobles of his deboshed court.
