Domum mansit — lanam fecit.

Ancient Roman Epitaph.

She keepit close the hous, and birlit at the quhele.

Gawain Douglas.

The time which passes over our heads so imperceptibly, makes the same gradual change in habits, manners, and character, as in personal appearance. At the revolution of every five years we find ourselves another, and yet the same — there is a change of views, and no less of the light in which we regard them; a change of motives¹ as well as of actions. Nearly twice that space had glided² away over the head of Halbert Glendinning and his lady, betwixt the period of our former narrative³, in which they played a distinguished⁴ part, and the date at which our present tale commences.

Two circumstances only had imbittered their union, which was otherwise as happy as mutual⁵ affection could render it. The first of these was indeed the common calamity⁶ of Scotland, being the distracted state of that unhappy country, where every man’s sword was directed against his neighbour’s bosom⁷. Glendinning had proved what Murray expected of him, a steady friend, strong in battle, and wise in counsel, adhering to him, from motives of gratitude⁸, in situations where by his own unbiassed will he would either have stood neuter, or have joined the opposite party. Hence, when danger was near — and it was seldom far distant — Sir Halbert Glendinning, for he now bore the rank of knighthood, was perpetually summoned to attend his patron on distant expeditions, or on perilous¹⁰ enterprises, or to assist him with his counsel in the doubtful intrigues
