Halaman 334 - They shall hear of my vengeance that would scorn to listen to the story of my wrongs. The miserable Highland drover, bankrupt, barefooted, stripped of alL dishonoured and hunted down, because the avarice of others grasped at more than that poor all could pay, shall burst on them in an awful change.
