The Monastery Chapter 19 Part 1
from The Walter Scott Library Hosted by Sir Walter Scott
In which the discourse sets forth the noble figure and rustic garb of young Halbert Glendinning as he presents himself before the Abbot of St. Mary's, who offers him a distinguished office within the Abbey's forest preserves. With a heart both resolute and respectful, Halbert declines the proffered honour, declaring his intent to pursue a fortune beyond the bounds of his ancestral inheritance, much to the mixed emotions of those assembled.
