I never thocht but that ye'd surely seen the plans and a', Miss Ermine, an' if so be it was Maister Colin's pleasure the thing suld be private, I'm real vext to hae said a word; but ye'll may be no let on to him, ma'am, that ye ken onything about it." "Those down-stairs rooms so silently begun," thought Ermine. "How fixed his intention must be? Oh, how will it end? What would be best for him?
"An' there's my daddy!" he went on, "maist won ower to the enemy an' I daurna tell even him what for I canna bide it! Ye haena been sayin' onything till him hiv ye, my leddy?" "I don't quite understand you," returned Florimel, rather guiltily, for she had spoken on the subject to Duncan. "Saying anything to your grandfather? About what?" "Aboot aboot Her, ye ken, my leddy."
And ye see Jenny canna miss but to ken manners, and the like o' reading books, and sewing seams having lived sae lang wi' a grand lady like Lady Singleside; or if she disna ken onything about it, I'm jealous that our bairns will like her a' the better.

"You'll never gaun till your work the day," she said in warm concern. "You'll never be able. You'd better tak' a rest, my laddie. A day will no' mak' muckle difference noo. We're no sae ill aff, an' I wadna like to hae onything gaun wrang. Gang away till your bed, an' dinna bother aboot your work. A guid rest'll maybe keep you frae getting the cauld."

'I houp I am, but I'm aye fin'in' oot something 'at 'ill never du. 'And ye'll keep fin'in' oot that sae lang 's there 's onything left but what 's like himsel. 'I un'erstan ye, Kirsty. But I cam to ye the day, no to say onything aboot mysel, but jist 'cause I cudna du wantin yer help.
I reckon if onybody was to ax to wed you, Miss Heptonstall, he'd be a steady-goin' sort o' fellow as wouldn't be up to they mak' o' games." Margaret smiled outright. Ted thought he would follow up his advantage and clinch the point at once. "Now, Miss Heptonstall," said he, "for instance, if I was to coom coortin' ye, I wouldn't be thinkin' of onything but makkin' ye coomfortable.
Noo, please gae awa and leave me my lane. I'll ring for ye if I want ye," said Rose, nervously. "Very well, ma'am. I'll go and see after your breakfast." "Oh, onything at a'! The same as yestreen. Only gae awa!" exclaimed the excited girl, too deeply moved now even to care what she should eat for breakfast.
