Excerpt: ... scottish chiefs. chapter L Thi sun rose as the funeral procession of the Ear. of Mar moved from before the gates of the monastery at 1'Vikirk. Lord Ruthven and Edwin mounted their horses. The maids of the two ladies led them forth towards the litters which were to convey them so long a journey. Lady Ruthven came first, and Wallace placed her tenderly in her carriage. The Countcss next appeared, clad from head to foot in the deep weeda of her widowhood. Her child followed in the arms of its nurse. At sight of the innocent babe whom he had so often seen pressed to the fond bosom of the father he was now following to the grave, tears rushed into the eyes of Wallace. Lady Mar at that moment Hied her veil, and meeting his commiserating look, applied it to herself, and with a flash of joy sunk her head upon the shoulder of her maid.

She threw herself back in violent agitation on her pillow, and Wallace deeming the presence of her babe the surest comforter, after blessing it with sll the fervour of its father's friend, laid it by her side. At that moment, before he had relinquished it. she bent her face upon his hands, and bathing them with her tears, in a stifled voice said, "Oh! Wallace, remember me!" Lord Ruthven rode up to bid adieu to his friend, and the litters moved on. Wallace promised that both he and Edwin should hear of him in the course of a few days; and I iona.tr ly grasping the hand of the latter, bsde him farewell. Hear of him they should, but not see him; for it wa his determination to set off that night for Durban where he was informed that Edward with the remaf of his army now lay, and joined by hi...

Halbert looked to the right and left; no smoke curling its grey mist from behmd the intersecting rucks, reminded him of the gladsome morning hour, or invited him to take a moment's rest from his grievous journey. All was lonely and desolate; and sighing bitterly over the wide devastation, he concealed the fatal sword under his cloak; and by means of a staff which he broke from a withered tree, he walked resolutely, though feebly, down the winding way; but many a pointed craig pierced his aged feet as he explored the almost trackless paths which, by their direction, he h"*"i would lead him towards the deep caves of Coria CHAPTER IV.

The burning beams of the mid-day sun now beat upon the rocks; the overshadowing foliage afforded him shelter; and a few brambles, which knit themselves over the path which he had yet to explore, with a draught of water from the passing brook, were all the food that offered to revive his enfeebled limbs. Insufficient as they appeared, he took them, blessing Heaven for sending ev en these; mnd after half an hour's rest, he again grasped his staff to pursue his way. Aftfcr breaking a passage through the entangled shrubs which grew across the only possible tooting in this solitary wilderness, he went along the side of the burn which now, at every turning of the rocks increased in depth and violence. The rills from above, and other mountain streams pouring into it from abrupt falls down the craigs, covered him with spray and intercepted his passage. Finding it impracticable to proceed through...
