By that time the gleaming shuttle was at rest, Davie Haggart had strolled into the village from his pile of stones in the Whunny road; Hendry Robb, the “dummy,” had sold his last barrowful of “rozetty (resiny) roots” for firewood; and the people, having tranquilly2 supped and soused their faces in their water-pails, slowly donned their Sunday clothes. This ceremony was common to all; but here divergence3 set in. The gray Auld Licht, to whom love was not even a name, sat in his high-backed arm-chair by the hearth4, Bible or “Pilgrim's Progress” in hand, occasionally lapsing5 into slumber6.
