BOTHWELL;

OR,

THE DAYS OF MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS.

CHAPTER I.

THE KIRK-OF-FIELD.

They make me think upon the gunner's lintstock,

Which yielding forth a light about the size

And semblance of the glow-worm, yet applied

To powder, blew a palace into atoms.

Sent a young king—a young queen's mate, at least—

Into the air, as high as ere flew night-hawk,

And made such wild work in the realm of Scotland.
