What
witness
have
you
?
"
"
My
own
eyes
.
I
stumbled
upon
one
of
their
hellish
Sabbaths
.
"
"
God
be
kind
to
us
!
I
have
heard
tell
of
siccan
things
,
and
I
have
read
of
them
in
old
books
,
but
I
never
experienced
them
.
I
’
m
positive
they
’
re
not
in
Cauldshaw
,
for
the
place
is
ower
bare
and
bright
and
the
wind
blows
ower
clean
on
our
braes
.
There
’
s
no
cover
for
the
abominations
which
must
be
done
in
darkness
.
But
I
have
aye
had
a
scunner
of
yon
Wood
.
.
.
.
It
’
s
a
queer
thing
the
heart
of
man
,
Mr
.
David
,
and
there
’
s
that
in
my
own
that
whiles
terrifies
me
.
The
work
of
redemption
is
done
in
an
instant
,
but
the
job
of
regeneration
is
a
lifetime
’
s
;
and
the
holiest
saint
on
his
death
-
bed
is
but
a
bag
of
rottenness
compared
to
the
purity
to
which
he
shall
yet
attain
.
And
at
times
I
’
m
tempted
to
think
that
our
way
and
the
Kirk
’
s
way
is
not
God
’
s
way
,
for
we
’
re
apt
to
treat
the
natural
man
as
altogether
corrupt
,
and
put
him
under
over
-
strict
pains
and
penalties
,
whereas
there
’
s
matter
in
him
that
might
be
shaped
to
the
purposes
of
grace
.
If
there
’
s
original
sin
,
there
’
s
likewise
original
innocence
.
When
I
hear
the
lassie
Katrine
Yester
singing
about
the
door
at
Calidon
,
I
have
an
assurance
of
God
’
s
goodness
as
sharp
as
I
ever
got
in
prayer
.
If
you
ban
this
innocent
joy
it
will
curdle
and
sour
,
and
the
end
will
be
sin
.
If
young
life
may
not
caper
on
a
spring
morn
to
the
glory
of
God
,
it
will
dance
in
the
mirk
wood
to
the
Devil
’
s
piping
.
"
Mr
.
Fordyce
stopped
short
with
a
rueful
face
.
"
That
’
s
for
your
own
ear
,
Mr
.
David
.
If
the
bruit
of
what
I
have
said
came
to
the
manse
of
Bold
,
Mr
.
Ebenezer
would
be
for
delating
me
to
the
Presbytery
.
But
if
it
’
s
not
orthodox
it
’
s
good
sense
.
"
"
I
doubt
orthodoxy
is
no
salve
against
sin
,
"
said
David
.
"
The
devils
,
it
is
written
,
believe
and
tremble
,
and
it
’
s
my
surmise
that
the
leader
of
the
witches
’
coven
in
Woodilee
could
stand
his
ground
with
Bold
himself
on
matters
of
doctrine
.
"
"
You
have
formidable
foes
.
"
"
I
have
a
whole
parish
,
for
even
those
who
are
free
of
guilt
are
too
timid
to
lift
a
hand
.
Likewise
I
have
my
Kirk
Session
.
"
Mr
.
Fordyce
exclaimed
.
"
And
it
looks
like
I
will
have
the
Presbytery
.
I
’
m
in
ill
odour
with
Mr
.
Muirhead
for
dividing
Israel
,
and
to
Mr
.
Proudfoot
I
smack
of
heresy
.
