CHAPTER XXXIII.

“Then glory, my Jeanie, maun plead my excuse;

Since honour commands me, how can I refuse?

Without it, I ne’er can have merit for thee,

And losing thy favour I’d better not be.

I gae, then, my lass, to win glory and fame,

And if I should chance to come gloriously hame,

I’ll bring a heart to thee with love running o’er,

And then I’ll leave thee and Lochaber no more.”
