Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Waverley Dictionary: An Alphabetical Arrangement of All the Characters in Sir Walter Scott's Waverley Novels, With a Descriptive Analysis of Each Character, and Illustrative Selections From the Text "Up to the era of Sir Walter Scott living people had some vague general, indistinct notions about dead people mouldering away to nothing, centuries ago, in regular kirk-yards and chance burial-places, "Mang muirs and mosses many, O, ' somewhere or other in that difficultly distinguished and very debatable district called the Borders. All at once he touched their tombs with a divining rod, and the turf streamed out ghosts, some in woodmen's dresses, most in warrior's mail; queer archers leaped forth, with yew bows and quivers, and giants stalked, shaking spears! The gray chronicler smiled, and, taking up his pen, wrote in lines of light the annals of the chivalrous and heroic days of auld feudal Scotland. The nation then, for the first time, knew the character of its ancestors; for these were not spectres - not they, indeed nor phantoms of the brain, but gaunt flesh and blood, or glad and glorious; - base-born cottage churls of the olden times, because Scottish, became familiar to the love of the nations heart, and so to its pride did the high-born lineage of palace kings. We know now the character of our own people as it showed itself in war and peace in palace, castle, hall, hut, hovel and shieling - through centuries of advancing civilization, from the time when Edinburgh was yeleped Auld Reekie down to the period when the bright idea first occurred to her inhabitants to call her the Modern Athens."
