He
prayed
,
as
he
always
prayed
,
not
in
a
mosaic
of
Scripture
texts
,
but
in
simple
words
;
and
as
he
spoke
he
felt
the
man
’
s
shoulder
under
his
hand
shake
as
with
a
sob
.
He
prayed
with
a
sincere
emotion
,
for
he
had
been
riding
through
a
living
,
coloured
world
,
and
now
felt
like
an
icy
blast
the
chill
and
pallor
of
death
.
Also
he
felt
the
pity
of
this
lifelong
companionship
broken
,
and
the
old
man
left
solitary
.
When
he
had
finished
,
Richie
lifted
his
face
from
his
hands
,
and
into
his
eyes
,
which
had
been
blank
as
a
wall
,
came
the
wholesome
dimness
of
tears
.
"
I
’
m
no
repinin
’
,
"
he
said
.
"
The
Lord
gave
and
the
Lord
has
taken
away
,
and
I
bless
His
name
.
What
saith
the
Apostle
-
-
Mirren
has
gane
to
be
with
Christ
,
whilk
is
far
better
.
There
was
mony
a
time
when
the
meal
-
ark
was
toom
[
empty
]
,
and
the
wind
and
weet
cam
’
in
through
the
baulks
,
and
the
peats
wadna
kindle
,
and
we
were
baith
hungry
and
cauld
.
But
Mirren
’
s
bye
wi
’
a
’
that
,
for
she
’
s
bielded
in
the
everlasting
arms
,
and
she
’
s
suppin
’
rich
at
the
Lord
’
s
ain
table
.
But
eh
,
sir
,
I
could
wish
it
had
been
His
will
to
hae
ta
’
en
me
wi
’
her
.
I
’
m
an
auld
man
,
and
there
’
s
nae
weans
[
children
]
,
and
for
the
rest
o
’
my
days
I
’
ll
be
like
a
beast
in
an
unco
loan
[
strange
lane
]
.
God
send
they
binna

"
"
The
purposes
of
the
Lord
are
true
and
altogether
righteous
.
If
He
spares
you
,
Richie
,
it
’
s
because
He
has
still
work
for
you
to
do
on
this
earth
.
"
"
I
kenna
what
it
can
be
.
My
fit

s
beginnin
’
to
lag
on
the
hill
,
and
ony

Lambin

for

.
"
"
Whatever
you
put
your
hand
to
is
the
work
of
the
Lord
,
if
you
keep
His
fear
before
you
.
"
"
Maybe
,
sir
.
"
The
man
rose
from
his
stool
and
revealed
a
huge
gaunt
frame
,
much
bowed
at
the
shoulders
.
He
peered
in
the
rushlight
at
the
minister
’
s
face
.
"
Ye
’
re
a
young
callant
to
be
a
minister
.
I
was
strong
on
your
side
,
sir
,
when
ye
got
the
call
,
for
your
preachin
’
was
like
a
rushin
’
michty
wind
.
I
mind
I
repeated
the
heids
o
’
your
sermon
to
Mirren
.
.
.
.
Ye

ve
done

,
sir

I
think
it
’
s
maybe
the
young
voice
o
’
ye
.
Ye
wad
get
the
word
from
Johnnie
Dow
.
Man
,
it
was
kind
to
mak

siccan
haste
.
I

I
wish

Pit
up
anither
petition
afore

gang
-
-
for
a
blessin
’
on
this
stricken
house
and
on
an
auld
man
who
has
his
title
sure
in
Christ
,
but
has
an
unco
rebellious
heart
.
"
It
seemed
to
David
as
he
turned
from
the
door
,
where
the
shepherd
stood
with
uplifted
arm
,
that
a
benediction
had
been
given
,
but
not
by
him
.
