The
second
day
I
crossed
the
island
to
all
sides
.
There
was
no
one
part
of
it
better
than
another
;
it
was
all
desolate
and
rocky
;
nothing
living
on
it
but
game
birds
which
I
lacked
the
means
to
kill
,
and
the
gulls
which
haunted
the
outlying
rocks
in
a
prodigious
number
.
682
But
the
creek
,
or
strait
,
that
cut
off
the
isle
from
the
main-land
of
the
Ross
,
opened
out
on
the
north
into
a
bay
,
and
the
bay
again
opened
into
the
Sound
of
Iona
;
and
it
was
the
neighbourhood
of
this
place
that
I
chose
to
be
my
home
;
though
if
I
had
thought
upon
the
very
name
of
home
in
such
a
spot
,
I
must
have
burst
out
weeping
.
683
I
had
good
reasons
for
my
choice
.
There
was
in
this
part
of
the
isle
a
little
hut
of
a
house
like
a
pig
's
hut
,
where
fishers
used
to
sleep
when
they
came
there
upon
their
business
;
but
the
turf
roof
of
it
had
fallen
entirely
in
;
so
that
the
hut
was
of
no
use
to
me
,
and
gave
me
less
shelter
than
my
rocks
.
What
was
more
important
,
the
shell-fish
on
which
I
lived
grew
there
in
great
plenty
;
when
the
tide
was
out
I
could
gather
a
peck
at
a
time
:
and
this
was
doubtless
a
convenience
.
But
the
other
reason
went
deeper
.
I
had
become
in
no
way
used
to
the
horrid
solitude
of
the
isle
,
but
still
looked
round
me
on
all
sides
(
like
a
man
that
was
hunted
)
,
between
fear
and
hope
that
I
might
see
some
human
creature
coming
.
Now
,
from
a
little
up
the
hillside
over
the
bay
,
I
could
catch
a
sight
of
the
great
,
ancient
church
and
the
roofs
of
the
people
's
houses
in
Iona
.
And
on
the
other
hand
,
over
the
low
country
of
the
Ross
,
I
saw
smoke
go
up
,
morning
and
evening
,
as
if
from
a
homestead
in
a
hollow
of
the
land
.

684
I
used
to
watch
this
smoke
,
when
I
was
wet
and
cold
,
and
had
my
head
half
turned
with
loneliness
;
and
think
of
the
fireside
and
the
company
,
till
my
heart
burned
.
It
was
the
same
with
the
roofs
of
Iona
.
685
Altogether
,
this
sight
I
had
of
men
's
homes
and
comfortable
lives
,
although
it
put
a
point
on
my
own
sufferings
,
yet
it
kept
hope
alive
,
and
helped
me
to
eat
my
raw
shell-fish
(
which
had
soon
grown
to
be
a
disgust
)
,
and
saved
me
from
the
sense
of
horror
I
had
whenever
I
was
quite
alone
with
dead
rocks
,
and
fowls
,
and
the
rain
,
and
the
cold
sea
.
686
I
say
it
kept
hope
alive
;
and
indeed
it
seemed
impossible
that
I
should
be
left
to
die
on
the
shores
of
my
own
country
,
and
within
view
of
a
church-tower
and
the
smoke
of
men
's
houses
.
But
the
second
day
passed
;
and
though
as
long
as
the
light
lasted
I
kept
a
bright
look-out
for
boats
on
the
Sound
or
men
passing
on
the
Ross
,
no
help
came
near
me
.
It
still
rained
,
and
I
turned
in
to
sleep
,
as
wet
as
ever
,
and
with
a
cruel
sore
throat
,
but
a
little
comforted
,
perhaps
,
by
having
said
good-night
to
my
next
neighbours
,
the
people
of
Iona
.

Charles
the
Second
declared
a
man
could
stay
outdoors
more
days
in
the
year
in
the
climate
of
England
than
in
any
other
.
This
was
very
like
a
king
,
with
a
palace
at
his
back
and
changes
of
dry
clothes
.
But
he
must
have
had
better
luck
on
his
flight
from
Worcester
than
I
had
on
that
miserable
isle
.
It
was
the
height
of
the
summer
;
yet
it
rained
for
more
than
twenty-four
hours
,
and
did
not
clear
until
the
afternoon
of
the
third
day
.

This
was
the
day
of
incidents
.
In
the
morning
I
saw
a
red
deer
,
a
buck
with
a
fine
spread
of
antlers
,
standing
in
the
rain
on
the
top
of
the
island
;
but
he
had
scarce
seen
me
rise
from
under
my
rock
,
before
he
trotted
off
upon
the
other
side
.
689
I
supposed
he
must
have
swum
the
strait
;
though
what
should
bring
any
creature
to
Earraid
,
was
more
than
I
could
fancy
.
690
A
little
after
,
as
I
was
jumping
about
after
my
limpets
,
I
was
startled
by
a
guinea-piece
,
which
fell
upon
a
rock
in
front
of
me
and
glanced
off
into
the
sea
.
When
the
sailors
gave
me
my
money
again
,
they
kept
back
not
only
about
a
third
of
the
whole
sum
,
but
my
father
's
leather
purse
;
so
that
from
that
day
out
,
I
carried
my
gold
loose
in
a
pocket
with
a
button
.
I
now
saw
there
must
be
a
hole
,
and
clapped
my
hand
to
the
place
in
a
great
hurry
.
But
this
was
to
lock
the
stable
door
after
the
steed
was
stolen
.
I
had
left
the
shore
at
Queensferry
with
near
on
fifty
pounds
;
now
I
found
no
more
than
two
guinea-pieces
and
a
silver
shilling
.
