"Whaur are ye aff til this bonny mornin', Maggie, my doo?" said the soutar, looking upfrom his work, and addressing his daughter as she stood in the doorway with her shoes inher hand."Jist ower to Stanecross, wi' yer leave, father, to speir the mistress for a goupin or twa o'chaff: yer bed aneth ye's grown unco hungry-like.""Hoot, the bed's weel eneuch, lassie!""Na, it's onything but weel eneuch! It's my pairt to luik efter my ain father, and see therebe nae k-nots aither in his bed or his parritch.""Ye're jist yer mither owre again, my lass!-Weel, I winna miss ye that sair, for theminister 'ill be in this mornin'.""Hoo ken ye that, father?""We didna gree vera weel last nicht.""I canna bide the minister-argle-barglin body!""Toots, bairn! I dinna like to hear ye speyk sae scornfulike o' the gude man that has thecare o' oor sowls!""It wad be mair to the purpose ye had the care o' his!""Sae I hae: hasna ilkabody the care o' ilk ither's?""Ay; but he preshumes upo' 't-and ye dinna; there's the differ!""Weel, but ye see, lassie, the man has nae insicht-nane to speak o', that is; and it'spleased God to mak him a wee stoopid, and some thrawn (twisted). He has nae notion eveno' the wark I put intil thae wee bit sheenie (little shoes) o' his-that I'm this momentlabourin ower!""It's sair wastit upo' him 'at caana see the thoucht intil't!""Is God's wark wastit upo' you and me excep' we see intil't, and un'erstan't, Maggie?"The girl was silent. Her father resumed."There's three concernt i' the matter o' the wark I may be at: first, my ain duty to thewark-that's me; syne him I'm working for-that's the minister; and syne him 'at sets meto the wark-ye ken wha that is: whilk o' the three wad ye hae me lea' oot o' theconsideration?"For another moment the girl continued silent; then she said-"Ye maun be i' the richt, father! I believe 't, though I canna jist see 't. A body canna likea'body, and the minister's jist the ae man I canna bide.""Ay could ye, gi'en ye lo'ed the ane as he oucht to be lo'ed, and as ye maun learn to lo'ehim.""Weel I'm no come to that wi' the minister yet!""It's a trowth-but a sair pity, my dautie (daughter-darling)."
