Excerpt from The Spaewife, Vol. 2 of 2: A Tale of the Scottish Chronicles
Keith, the herald, in due form, having declared his othee, demanded admission - a request which the chieftain did not very well know how to re fuse, but which, somehow, he knew not wherefore, he was not much inclined to grant. He was not conscious of having done any thing to bring upon him the royal displeasure; but what he had heard from' the Earl of Athol with respect to the Duchess, and the little encouragement that he had received for seizing Sir Robert Gmme, made him uneasy and apprehensive, and these feelings led him to say, without affecting to have heard the demand of ad' mission.
