But ye see, gin I hadna dune as I was tauld, and learnt a' aboot hoo it was dune aforehan', I wad hae had naething to gang rizzonin' aboot, an' wad hae fun' oot naething. 'That's good, Robert. But when a man is dying for food, he can't wait. 'He micht try to get up and luik, though. 'I have been looking, Robert for years. 'Maybe, like me, only for the rizzon o' 't, Mr.
Gien my father hed been wi' me, an' no weel eneuch to like me oot o' 's sicht, I wad hae beggit aff fest eneuch, but wi' no rizzon it wad hae been ill-mainnert, no to say dishonest an' oongratefu'. Gien ye hae spoken to ony ither i' my place, he s' hae the fee, an' Is' hae the wark. Lat things stan', Mr. Henderson."
"Puir lassie!" said Malcolm, whose own trouble had never at any time rendered him insensible to that of others. "But is't onybody 'at kens what he says?" he pursued. "Weel, I dinna jist richtly ken gien she kens, but I think she maun ha'e gude rizzon, or she wadna say as she says. Oh me! me! my bairnie 'ill be scornin' me sair whan he comes to ken.
Agnes laughed, but made no reply, for the voice of her mother came out of the dark: "Wha's that, Aggie, ye're haudin' sic a confab wi' in the middle o' the night? Ye tellt me ye had to sit up to yer lessons!" "I was busy at them, mither, whan Maister Cosmo chappit at the door." "Weel, what for lat ye him stan' there? Ye may hae yer crack wi' HIM as lang's ye like in rizzon, that is.
Weel, whether it was 'at their herts was ower muckle wrappit up i' this ae human cratur for the growth o' their sowls, I dinna ken there bude to be some rizzon for't this last ane o' a' begud in his turn to dwine an' dwin'le like the lave; an' whaurever thae twa puir fowk turnt themsel's i' their pangs, there stude deith, glowerin' at them oot o' his toom e'en.
Sometime we'll tak Grizzie intil oor coonsel, an' see hoo mony we can gaither, an' what we can mak o' them whan we lay them a' thegither. Gien the Lord hae't in his min' to keep 's i' this place, yon passage may turn oot a great convanience." "Ye dinna think it wad be worth while openin' 't up direc'ly?" "I wad bide for warmer weather. I think the room's jist some caller now by rizzon o' 't."
"We thought he was too quite," said Santos. "You percive the rizzon." And he waved from empty bed to open window, then held the candle close to the tied sheet, and shrugged expressively. "You thought he was too quiet!" echoed Rattray with fierce scorn. "You thought I was too blind that's what you mean. To tell me that Miss Denison wished to see me, and Miss Denison that I wished to speak to her!
"Really, ma'am, one would think you were my grandmother, to hear you order my affairs for me." "I wuss I war, my lord: I sud gar ye hear rizzon upo' baith sides o' yer heid, I s' warran'!" The marquis laughed. "Well, I can't stand here all day!" he said, impatiently swinging one leg. "I 'm weel awaur o' that, my lord," answered Miss Horn, rearranging her scanty skirt.
Miss Horn made three great strides, caught the marquis's hand in both hers, and said, "I praise God ye 're an honest man, my lord." "I hope so," said the marquis, and seized the advantage "You'll hold your tongue about this ?" he added, half inquiring, half requesting. "As lang as I see rizzon, my lord, nae langer," answered Miss Horn, dropping his hand. "Richt maun be dune."
Aggie hesitated, but, open as the day, she did not hesitate long. She turned her face from him, and answered, "I wantit to gie ye a surprise, Maister Cosmo. Divna ye min' tellin' me ance 'at ye saw no rizzon hoo a lassie sudna un'erstan' jist as weel's a laddie.
