She's a gude-heartit budy; but, man, she gets intil an awfu' pavey whiles, an' she's nether to hand nor to bind when she gets raised. But, for ony sake, dinna lat on I was sayin' onything. Bawbie's an awfu' cratur to tell fowk aboot me an' my ongaens. Weel, there's a lot o' truth in what she says, I maun admit; altho' she mak's a heap o' din juist aboot twa-three kyowows, noo-an'-than.
'And what abaat his spots, Abram? 'Why, he's weshed 'em all aat in th' Green Fowd Lodge wi' savin' Oliver o' Deaf Martha's little un. Enoch whistled the first bar or two of an old tune, and stood silent in thought, and then exclaimed: 'Well, aw'v yerd o' th' seven wonders, but if what thaa sez is true, it mak's th' eighth. 'Yi, owd mon, but there's a bigger wonder nor that.
"D'yo' reck'n M'Adam had a hand in't?" the postman was asking. "Nay; there's no proof." "Ceptin' he's mad to get shut o' Th' Owd Un afore Cup Day." "Im or me it mak's no differ. For a dog is disqualified from competing for the Trophy who has changed hands during the six months prior to the meeting.

These kind of folk hae dam'd strange ideas aboot things. They get it into their heads it is wrang to do certain things when folk are no married, but the cloak of marriage flung aboot them mak's the same things richt. They hinna the brains o' a sewer rat in their noddles, the dam'd hypocrites that they are!" "Dinna swear, Rob!" said Mrs. Sinclair, interrupting him.
There isn't a church I knows of not even t' people called Methodists as mak's it narrow enough to prevent lost sheep. But it isn't all t' Hill o' Difficulty, Miss Hallam. It isn't fair to say that. There's many an arbor on t' hill-side, and many a House Beautiful, and whiles we may bide a bit wi' t' shepherds on t' Delectable Mountains. And no soul need walk alone on it.

"I've seen her do 't mysel'," said Sam'l. "There's no a lassie mak's better bannocks this side o' Fetter Lums," continued Pete. "Her mither tocht her that," said Sam'l; "she was a gran' han' at the bakin', Kitty Ogilvy."

He's weel-behavin', an' isna makin' a blatterin' i' an auld kirkyaird. He aye minds what he's bidden to do. He's cheerfu' an' busy, keepin' the proolin' pussies an' vermin frae the sma' birdies i' the nests. He mak's friends o' ilka body, an' he's faithfu'. For a deid man he lo'ed he's gaun hungry; an' he hasna forgotten 'im or left 'im by 'is lane at nicht for mair years than some o' ye are auld.
"For smoking in the mine, in spite of three warnings." "Me smoking in t' mine! Who telt you yon lie?" "You were seen to pick the lock of your Davylamp, and that put the mine in danger.
