CHAPTER I'LL GO TO PILRI6.
The next morning, | was no sooner
awake in my new lodging than / was up
and into my new clothes; and no sooner
the breakfast swallowed than l was forth
on my adventures. Alan, could hope
was Tended for; James was like to be
more difficult affair. aud l could not but
think that enterprise might cost me dear.
even as everybody said to whom / had
opened my opinion. 1t seemed / was
come to the top OF the mountain only to
cast myself down: that | had ciambered
up, through so many and hard trials to be
rich, to be recognized, to wear city clothes
and sword to my side, all to commit
mere suicide at the last end of it, and the
worst kind of suicide besides, which is to
get hanged at the kings charges.
What was | doing 1t for? l asked, as
went down the High street and out north
by Leith Wynd. First 1 said it was to
save James Stewart; and no doubt the
memory of his distress and his wifes
cries, and word or so I had let drop on
that occasion worked upon me strongly.
At the same time reflected that it was, or
ought 10 be, the most indifferent matter to
my fathers son, whether James died in
his bed or from a scaifold. He was Alan's
cousin, to be sure: but so far as regarded
Alan. the best thing would be to lie low,
and let the king and his grace of Argyll
and the corbie crows pick the bones of his
kinsman their own way. Nor could for
get that, while We were all in the pot to-
rether, James had shown no such particu-
lar anxiety whether for Alan or me.
Next it came upon me | was acting for
the sake of Justice; and | thought that a
hne word. and reasoned it out that, since
we dweit in politics, at some discomfort to
each one of us, the main thing of all must
still be justice. and the death of any inno-
cent man n wound upon the whole COM
munity. Next, again, it was the accuser
OF the brethren that gave me turn of his
argument; bid me think shame for pre-
tending myself concerned in these high
matters. and told me / was but prating,
vain child, who had spoken big words to
Rankeillor and to Stewart, and held my
self bound upon my vanity to make good
that boastfulness. Nay. and he hit me
with the other end OF the stick for he ac-
cused me of a kind of artful cowardice,
going about at the expense of little risk
10 purchase greater safety. No doubt, I'M

no doubt. in case | could manage
my declaration with success, should
breathe more free forever after. But when
looked this argument full in the face |
could see nothing to be ashamed of. AS for
the rest, Here are the two roads," |
thought. ''and both go to the same place.
It's unjust that James should hang if |
can save him; and it would be ridiculous
in me to have talked so much and then do
nothing. It's lucky for James of the
Glens that have boasted beforehand; and
