Then to pass the ennui of exile, I come to Bath and play for what one will. It kill the time. But when the people hear I have been a servant they come only secretly; and there is one of them he has absolve' me of a promise not to speak of him I learn something he cannot wish to be tol'. I make some trouble to learn this thing. Why I should do this? Well that is my own rizzon.
"Ye dinna surely think, mem, 'at God wad lat onything depen' upo' whether a man opent a door in 's ain hoose or no! It's agane a' rizzon!" persisted Malcolm. "There might be reasons we couldn't understand," she replied. "To do what we are warned against from any quarter, without good reason, must be foolhardy at best."
They're fine heumblin things, a body's feet! But, eh, it'll be fine wantin them! 'Whaur on earth gat ye sic notions aboot yer feet? Guid kens there's naething amiss wi' yer feet!

"Hoot! hoot! Naebody saw them. I s' warran' ye didna lie lang! But thae loons they're jist past a'! Heard ye hoo they saired Rob Bruce?" "Fegs! they tell me they a' but buried him alive." "Ow! ay.
"The gran' diffeeculty is hoo He can lat ilk ane tak' his ain gait an' yet luik efter them a'. But gien He does't, it stan's to rizzon it maun be in some w'y 'at them 'at's sae luikit efter canna by ony possibeelity un'erstan'." "That's trowth, I'm thinkin'. We maun jist gi'e up an' confess there's things abune a' human comprehension."
