Arriving in the midst of frolic as high as ordinary mortal spirits might be supposed able to sublime human exultation, he effected such an increase of the corrybantic power of the laughing and singing genius of Hogmanay, that "Never in Scotland had been seen Sic dancing nor deray; Nowther at Falkland on the green, Nor Peebles at the play."
"'I'll gie thee my hand and word on't, aunt, said I, 'that I knaw nowther the faither nor mother o't; and from the way in which I found it upon the moor, I doubt whether ever it had owther the one or the other. "My aunt was easier satisfied than I expected, and, by degrees, I let out the whole secret o' the story o' finding him, both to her and to my neighbours.
If there is anything to be done at all to-day, it must be in the evening. But I fear there will be nothing. One can't work always nowther. "Neque semper arcum tendit Apollo." There's warrant for it. July 2. Wrote in the morning, correcting the Essay on the Highlands, which is now nearly completed. Settled accounts with Tom and Bogie.
"And Angus would have done it, too, and not the first time nowther," said little Reuben, with a knowing shake of the head. "Well, Matthew, what then?" said Monsey. "Weel, with that Angus he lifted up his staff, and Wilson shrieked oot afore he gat the blow. But Angus lowered his hand and said to him, says he, 'Time eneuf to shriek when ye're strucken."
A loud burst of laughter rewarded this attempt on the life of the tragic muse. "Art thou not Romeo and a Montague?" and the alleged Romeo on his knees replied, "Nowther, sweet lass, if owther thoo offend," the laughter in the auditorium reached the point of frantic screams.
"A fool may ask mair questions ner a doctor can answer." The shepherd shifted in his seat. "That Wilson was na shaks nowther," continued Matthew quietly. "He was accustomed to 'tummel' his neighbors, and never paused to inquire into their bruises. He'd olas the black dog on his back leastways latterly. Ey, the braizzant taistrel med have done something for Ralph an he lived langer.
An idle taistrill is t' sparrow, wi' nowther sense nor mense in his head. But theer, barns, I'm gettin' off t' track o' my story o' Janet an' t' way shoo wakkened up t' birds wi' her wand. "You see shoo allus knew whose turn sud coom next, an' wheer ivery sort o' bird was roostin'. One minute shoo pointed t' stick to t' top o' t' trees, an' then I heerd 'Caw!
Again some commonplace from Rotha, and another step homewards. "I've just been takin' a sup o' tea with laal 'Becca Rudd. It's early to go home, but, as I says to my Joey, there's no place like it; and nowther is there. It's like ye've found that yersel', lass, afore this." There was an insinuating sneer in the tone in which Mrs. Garth uttered her last words. Getting no response, she added,
The Lord hae mercy upo' ye! The goddess o' the rainbow hersel's gotten a haud o' ye, and ye'll be seein' naething but rainbows for years to come. Iris bigs bonnie brigs, but they hae nowther pier, nor buttress, nor key-stane, nor parapet. And no fit can gang ower them but her ain, and whan she steps aff, it's upo' men's herts, and yours can ill bide her fit, licht as it may be."
"At Carlisle, did you hear anything meet anybody?" she asked. "Baith," said Reuben, with a twinkle which was lost in the darkness. "I mean from Wythburn. Did you meet anybody from did you see Ralph or my father?" "Nowther." "Nor hear of them?" "No wait deary me, deary me, now 'at I mind it I nivver thought of it afore I heeard 'at a man had been had up at the Toon Hall and taken to the gaol.
