"TO SEND A MINISTER TO THE WELL!" "I WILL GO." "WHERE'S THE WELL?" "GIVE ME THE PITCHER, MR. DISHART." "WHAT A TALKING THERE WOULD BE IF YOU WERE SEEN WITH IT!" "DON'T YOU THINK SO?" "NANNY, FOR SHAME!" "HOW CAN YOU EXPECT TO FOLLOW OUR CONVERSATION" "WHEN YOU LISTEN ONLY TO MR. DISHART?" "WHAT?" "SHE WAS SAYING, NANNY" "I WAS SAYING THAT HE IS MARRIED." "BUT THE MINISTER HAS NO WIFE, BABBIE." "NO?" "OH..." "WELL, I DID WONDER AT ANY MERE WOMAN'S DARING TO MARRY SUCH A MINISTER." "BUT IT WAS ONE OF THE SOLDIERS THAT TOLD ME ABOUT HIS WIFE." "HE SAID THAT MR. DISHART INTRODUCED HER TO HIM." "SOLDIERS?" "NEVER TRUST A SOLDIER, LASSIE." "NANNY, I WAS TOLD THAT SHE WAS RATHER LIKE ME." "HEAVEN FORBID!" "WHAT?" "I'M NO MEANING, BUT YOU'RE THE BONNIEST LASS I EVER SAW" "OUT OF A PICTURE BOOK." "BUT YOU WOULD KNOW MR. DISHART'S CONTEMPT FOR BONNY FACES" "IF YOU'D HEARD HIS SERMON AGAINST WOMEN." "THAT WAS AN EXCELLENT CUP OF TEA, NANNY." "WASN'T IT?" "WHEN DID HE PREACH AGAINST WOMEN, NANNY?" "OH, IT WAS LONG AGO." "NOT SO VERY LONG- IT WAS THE SABBATH" "AFTER THE SOLDIERS WAS IN THRUMS," "THE DAY YOU CHANGED YOUR TEXT SO HURRIEDLY." "I FORBID YOU TO REPEAT THAT STORY, NANNY!" "WHAT MADE YOU CHANGE YOUR TEXT, MR. DISHART?" "I..." "I SUDDENLY THOUGHT OF A BETTER ONE." "OH." "WELL, I MUST GO." "I, TOO." "WHICH WAY DO YOU TAKE?" "NOT YOURS, MR. DISHART." "I GO INTO THE WOOD AND VANISH." "GOOD DAY, NANNY." "THANK YOU, LASSIE, FOR YOUR KINDNESS." "NOW I'LL HAVE PEACE TO THE END OF MY DAYS," "AND I WISH THE SAME TO YOU WITH ALL MY HEART." "OH, I'VE READ MY FORTUNE, NANNY," "AND THERE'S NOT MUCH HAPPINESS IN IT." "I HOPE THAT'S NOT TRUE." "DO YOU REALLY CARE?" "YES, I CARE." "BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW ME." "BECAUSE I DO KNOW YOU." "WELL, I BELIEVE THAT YOU MISUNDERSTAND ME LESS" "THAN THOSE WHO HAVE KNOWN ME LONGER." "BABBIE..." "OH, I'M GLAD TO HEAR YOU SAY THAT." "I THOUGHT YOU DID NOT REALLY LIKE ME" "BECAUSE YOU NEVER CALLED ME BY MY NAME." "THAT WASN'T THE REASON." "I DARED NOT SPEAK YOUR NAME, OR I WOULD HAVE SAID MORE" "OH, I WAS WRONG."

"BUT ONE DAY, I SUPPOSE THE ROAD WAS ROUGH" "FOR I WAS THROWN OUT." "I CAN REMEMBER PICKING MYSELF UP" "AFTER A LITTLE AND RUNNING AFTER THE CART." "BUT THEY-THEY DIDN'T HEAR MY CRIES," "OR IF THEY DID, THEY DIDN'T COME BACK FOR ME." "I LIKE TO THINK THAT MY MOTHER DID COME BACK FOR ME" "AND THEN WENT AWAY AGAIN" "WHEN SHE HEARD THAT I WAS IN BETTER HANDS THAN HERS." "IT WAS LORD RINTOUL WHO FOUND ME." "AND SO I OWE EVERYTHING TO HIM." "HE TOOK ME HOME ON HIS HORSE" "AND PAID HIS GARDNER'S WIFE TO REAR ME." "AFTERWARDS, HE SENT ME TO FINE SCHOOLS." "HE'S LAVISHED EVERYTHING UPON ME." "HE HAS BEEN VERY KIND TO YOU." "YES, HE'S BEEN VERY KIND TO ME." "AND I'M TO MARRY HIM." "DOES HE LOVE YOU?" "NO." "HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT LOVE IS." "NOR DID I..." "UNTIL..." "YOU WERE LAUGHING AT ME ALL THE TIME." "ONLY A LITTLE..." "AT FIRST, BUT NOT AFTERWARDS." "YOU NEVER CARED FOR ME AT ALL." "ALWAYS." "ALWAYS SINCE I FIRST KNEW WHAT LOVE WAS." "AND IT WAS YOU WHO TAUGHT ME." "THAT NIGHT IN THE MANSE GARDEN." "DO YOU REMEMBER?" "I KNEW THAT I COULD..." "NEVER AGAIN BE ALTOGETHER UNHAPPY." "ALL MY LIFE I WOULD HAVE THAT TO REMEMBER."

"HE SAYS THE MINISTER CAME TO HIS PLACE" "NOT 10 MINUTES AGO ASKING TO HIRE A CARRIAGE." "WHAT?" "HIRE A CARRIAGE!" "AYE." "WHILE WE'RE SITTING HERE WAITING FOR HIM." "WHERE DID HE GO?" "SAMUEL CANNOT TELL." "BECAUSE HE SAID HE WOULD NAE LET A HORSE" "OF HIS OUT ON A NIGHT LIKE THIS." "NOT FOR NO AULD LICHT." "WELL..." "MOST LIKELY HE WAS GOING ON SOME ERRAND OF MERCY." "AYE!" "BUT SAMUEL SAID HE HAD A WOMAN WITH HIM." "I SEE NOTHING TO DO" "BUT TO DISMISS THE CONGREGATION" "AND NOTIFY MR. DISHART" "THAT THE PULPIT IS VACANT." "I'M THINKING HE CAN HARDLY EXPLAIN HIS ACTIONS" "TO THE SATISFACTION OF THIS SESSION." "MR. WHAMMOND, DON'T BE HASTY." "MAYBE IT'S NAE HIS FAULT." "MIND YOUR PLACE, ROB DOW." "PUTTING YOURSELF ON THE EQUAL" "WITH THE ELDERS OF THIS KIRK." "HAVE MERCY ON HIM." "GOD HIMSELF WOULD GIVE HIM A SECOND CHANCE." "ROB DOW, WHAT CAN YOU KNOW" "OF THE WAYS OF GOD?" "THAT'S TRUE."
