Billy Little was roused from his dreams black nightmares they had been by a knocking on his store door, and when he sat up in bed to listen, he heard Rita's voice calling: "Billy Little, let me in." Billy ran to unlock the front door, crying: "Come in, come in, God bless my soul, come in. Maxwelton's braes are bonny, bonny, bonny. Tell me, are you alone?"
