I
am
on
the
side
of
the
free
people
of
Scotland
.
And
you
by
your
vows
are
on
the
same
side
,
for
your
concern
is
to
feed
the
flock
of
God
which
is
among
us
.
Think
you
,
sir
,
if
you
depress
the
balance
against
the
King
,
that
thereby
you
will
win
more
for
the
people
?
Nay
,
nay
,
what
is
lost
to
the
prerogative
will
go
,
not
to
the
people
,
but
to
those
who
prey
on
them
.
You
will
have
that
anarchy
which
gives
his
chance
to
the
spoiler
,
and
out
of
anarchy
will
come
some
day
a
man
of
violence
who
will
tyrannically
make
order
again
.
It
is
the
way
of
the
world
,
my
friend
.
"
"
Are
you
for
the
Covenant
?
"
At
the
question
the
others
started
.
"
Enough
of
politics
,
"
cried
Rollo
.
"
These
are
no
matters
to
debate
among
weary
folk
.
"
But
the
groom
raised
his
hand
,
and
they
were
silent
.
"
I
am
for
the
Covenant
.
Six
years
back
I
drew
sword
for
it
,
and
I
did
not
sheathe
that
sword
till
we
had
established
the
liberties
of
this
land
.
That
was
indeed
a
Covenant
of
Grace
.
"
"
There
is
another
and
a
later
.
What
say
you
of
that
?
"
"
I
say
of
that
other
that
it
is
a
Covenant
of
Works
in
which
I
have
no
part
,
nor
any
true
lover
of
the
Kirk
.
It
is
a
stepping
of
the
Kirk
beyond
the
bounds
prescribed
by
the
law
of
God
and
the
law
of
man
,
and
it
will
mean
a
weakening
of
the
Kirk
in
its
proper
duties
.
And
that
I
need
not
tell
you
,
as
a
minister
of
Christ
,
will
be
the
starvation
and
oppression
of
Christ
’
s
simple
folk
.
Quicquid
delirant
reges
,
plectuntur
Achivi
.
Is
it
not
more
pleasing
to
God
that
His
ministers
should
comfort
the
sick
and
the
widow
and
the
fatherless
,
and
guide
souls
to
Heaven
,
than
that
they
should
scrabble
for
civil
pre
-
eminence
?
"
Into
David
’
s
mind
came
two
visions
-
-
that
of
the
complacent
ministers
of
Kirk
Aller
and
Bold
as
they
had
discoursed
at
meat
,
and
that
of
the
old
herd
at
the
Greenshiel
,
sitting
by
his
dead
wife
.
The
pictures
belonged
to
different
worlds
,
and
at
the
moment
he
felt
that
these
worlds
were
eternally
apart
.
He
had
the
disquieting
thought
that
the
one
had
only
the
husks
of
faith
,
and
the
other
the
grain
.
Dimly
he
heard
the
voice
of
the
groom
.
"
I
will
give
you
a
text
,
Mr
.
Sempill
.
’
The
vineyard
of
the
Lord
of
hosts
is
the
house
of
Israel
,
and
the
men
of
Judah
His
pleasant
plant
;
and
He
looked
for
judgment
,
but
behold
oppression
;
for
righteousness
,
but
behold
a
cry
.
’
"
He
scarcely
realized
that
the
others
had
sprung
to
their
feet
,
and
it
was
only
when
Nicholas
Hawkshaw
exclaimed
that
he
turned
his
head
.
A
girl
stood
before
them
,
the
girl
who
had
opened
the
door
,
but
whose
face
he
had
scarcely
seen
at
the
time
in
the
poor
light
.
