Waverley Volume 1 Chapter XXIX - Waverley's Reception in the Lowlands After His Highland Tour

from The Walter Scott Library · host Sir Walter Scott

In which the young Edward Waverley returns from his Highland journey to the Lowlands, navigating the curious and often inhospitable manners of a small market town on a solemn day of fasting, accompanied by his faithful Highland servant Callum Beg. Amidst encounters with puritanical innkeepers and reflections upon tender affections softened by absence, he contemplates the stirring verses of Flora Mac-Ivor while preparing to continue his journey southward.
