"I'll sae naething against MacCallum More and the Slioch-nan-Diarmid," said the lesser Highlander, laughing. "I live on the wrang side of Glencroe to quarrel with Inverara." "Our loch ne'er saw the Cawmil lymphads,"* said the bigger Highlander. * Lymphads. The galley which the family of Argyle and others of the * Clan Campbell carry in their arms.
The man will say that he never heard tell of the name, and then you will speak these words to him. You will say 'The lymphads are on the loch, and the horn of Diarmaid has sounded. Keep them well in mind, for some way or other they will bring you and me together." Without another word he was off, and as I committed the gibberish to memory I could hear his song going up the Saltmarket:
"I'll sae naething against MacCallum More and the Slioch-nan-Diarmid," said the lesser Highlander, laughing. "I live on the wrang side of Glencroe to quarrel with Inverara." "Our loch ne'er saw the Cawmil lymphads,"* said the bigger Highlander. * Lymphads. The galley which the family of Argyle and others of the * Clan Campbell carry in their arms.
