1:41:02
than many are willing.
1:41:06
In truth, put to it,
I think not all of her objected.
1:41:41
I appreciate the honour you do me,
Mistress McGregor,
1:41:45
in bringing your case.
1:41:46
But from all
I'm acquainted with your husband,
1:41:49
he has earned the enmity
of the Marquis of Montrose
1:41:52
by borrowing money
that he cannot repay
1:41:54
and ever harrying
his stock as blackmail.
1:41:56
There is more to
the matter, your Grace.
1:41:59
I'm sure there is,
1:42:00
but it is not part of mine
to intrude myself,
1:42:03
sensible as I am to your condition.
1:42:06
It's a hard thought,
1:42:08
but men make the quarrels,
1:42:10
and women and weans bear them.
1:42:12
Your Grace, Robert finds himself
in this condition
1:42:15
for taking "your" part.
1:42:18
My part?
1:42:19
What cause had he to do that
1:42:21
and in what manner?
1:42:24
He refused to condemn you
by false witness
1:42:27
when the Marquis asked him
to say you were a Jacobite
1:42:31
to injure your name at Court.
1:42:33
Montrose asked this of him?
1:42:35
In remission of this debt.
1:42:38
But Robert refused.
1:42:42
I did not know
your husband bore me such good will.
1:42:45
Indeed, I think he favours you
1:42:47
no more than any great man.
1:42:50
"As wolves at lambing"
1:42:52
is his word for you all.
1:42:55
It was not done for Your Grace
1:42:58
but for his own honour,
