Puir

She
ran
in
here
like
a
hunted
maukin
.
"
Then
to
the
soldiers
:
"
Ye
had
surely
little
to
dae
,
lads
,
to
mishandle
a
starvin
’
lassie
.
"
There
was
no
sign
of
compunction
on
the
coarse
faces
of
the
troopers
.

An
Irish
b

bitch
,

hiccoughed

said
another
.
"
Just
in

way
o

daffin
,

She
let
out
a
skelloch
and
ran
like
the
wund
.
"
The
man
put
his
hands
to
his
sides
and
guffawed
at
the
memory
of
it
.
He
did
not
laugh
long
,
for
David
was
on
him
like
a
tempest
.
The
fuddled
troopers
heard
a
denunciation
which
did
something
to
sober
them
by
chilling
their
marrow
.
As
men
,
as
soldiers
,
as
Christians
,
he
left
them
no
rag
to
cover
them
.
"
You
that
fight
in
God
’
s
cause
,
"
he
cried
,
"
and
are
worse
than
brute
beasts
!
Get
back
to
your
styes
,
you
swine
,
and
know
that
for
every
misdeed
the
Lord
will
exact
punishment
a
thousandfold
.
"
He
was
carried
out
of
himself
in
his
wrath
.
"
I
see
each
one
of
you
writhing
on
a
coming
field
of
battle
,
waiting
to
change
the
torments
of
the
flesh
for
the
eternal
agonies
of
Hell
.
You
are
the
brave
ones
-
-
your
big
odds
gave
you
a
chance
victory
over
one
that
for
a
year
hunted
you
and
your
like
round
the
compass
-
-
and
you
purge
your
manhood
by
murdering
frail
women
.
"
It
was
not
a
discreet
speech
,
and
a
sentence
or
two
of
it
pierced
through
their
befuddlement
,
but
it
sent
them
packing
.
They
were
too
conscious
of
the
power
of
a
black
gown
in
Leslie
’
s
army
to
dare
to
outface
a
minister
.
David
marched
homeward
with
his
heart
in
a
storm
,
to
find
an
anxious
Isobel
.
