The Fright.

As shakes the bough1 of trembling leaf,

When sudden whirlwinds rise;

As stands aghast the warrior3 chief,

When his base army flies.

. . . . . .

It had been settled by all who took the matter into consideration, that the fidgety, fiery4, old Nabob would soon quarrel with his landlady5, Mrs. Dods, and become impatient of his residence at St. Ronan’s. A man so kind to himself, and so inquisitive6 about the affairs of others, could have, it was supposed, a limited sphere for gratification either of his tastes or of his curiosity, in the Aultoun of St. Ronan’s: and many a time the precise day and hour of his departure were fixed7 by the idlers at the Spa. But still old Touchwood appeared amongst them when the weather permitted, with his nut-brown visage, his throat carefully wrapped up in an immense Indian kerchief, and his gold-headed cane9, which he never failed to carry over his shoulder; his short, but stout10 limbs, and his active step, showing plainly that he bore it rather as a badge of dignity than a means of support. There he stood, answering shortly and gruffly to all questions proposed to him, and making his remarks aloud upon the company, with great indifference11 as to the offence which plight12 be taken; and as soon as the ancient priestess had handed him his glass of the salutiferous water, turned on his heel with a brief good-morning, and either marched back to hide himself in the Manse, with his crony Mr. Cargill, or to engage in some hobby-horsical pursuit connected with his neighbours in the Aultoun.
