;The deep and implicit respect paid by the Highland clansmen to their chief�察�rendered this both a common and a solemn oath。 In other respects�察�they were like most savage nations�察�capricious in their ideas concerning the obligatory power of oaths。 One solemn mode of swearing was by kissing the dirk�察�imprecating upon themselves death by that�察�or a similar weapon�察�if they broke their vow。 But for oaths in the usual form�察�they are said to have had little respect。 As for the reverence due to the chief�察�it may be guessed from the following odd example of a Highland point of honour��
'The clan whereto the above´mentioned tribe belongs�察�is the only one I have heard of which is without a chief�察�that is�察�being divided into families�察�under several chieftains�察�without any particular patriarch of the whole name。 And this is a great reproach�察�as may appear from an affair that fell out at my table�察�in the Highlands�察�between one of that name and a Cameron。 The provocation given by the latter was�察 �Name your chief。; The return of it at once was�察 �You are a fool。; They went out next morning�察�but having early notice of it�察�I sent a small party of soldiers after them�察�which�察�in all probability�察�prevented some barbarous mischief that might have ensued�察�for the chiefless Highlander�察�who is himself a petty chieftain�察�was going to the place appointed with a small´sword and pistol�察�whereas the Cameron ��an old man�� took with him only his broadsword�察�according to the agreement。
'When all was over�察�and I had�察�at least seemingly�察�reconciled them�察�I was told the words�察�of which I seemed to think but slightly�察�were�察�to one of the clan�察�the greatest of all provocations' ��Letters from Scotland�察�vol。 ii。 p。 221��。;

622。 Coir´nan´Uriskin。 Scott has the following note here�此 �This is a very steep and most romantic hollow in the mountain of Benvenue�察�overhanging the southeastern extremity of Loch Katrine。 It is surrounded with stupendous rocks�察�and overshadowed with birch´trees�察�mingled with oaks�察�the spontaneous production of the mountain�察�even where its cliffs appear denuded of soil。 A dale in so wild a situation�察�and amid a people whose genius bordered on the romantic�察�did not remain without appropriate deities。 The name literally implies the Corri�察�or Den�察�of the Wild or Shaggy Men。 Perhaps this�察�as conjectured by Mr。 Alexander Campbell ��Journey from Edinburgh�察�1802�察�p。 109���察�may have originally only implied its being the haunt of a ferocious banditti。 But tradition has ascribed to the Urisk�察�who gives name to the cavern�察�a figure between a goat and a man�察�in short�察�however much the classical reader may be startled�察�precisely that of the Grecian Satyr。 The Urisk seems not to have inherited�察�with the form�察�the petulance of the silvan deity of the classics�察�his occupation�察�on the contrary�察�resembled those of Milton's Lubbar Fiend�察�or of the Scottish Brownie�察�though he differed from both in name and appearance。 'The Urisks��' says Dr。 Graham�察�'were a sort of lubberly supernaturals�察�who�察�like the Brownies�察�could be gained over by kind attention to perform the drudgery of the farm�察�and it was believed that many families in the Highlands had one of the order attached to it。 They were supposed to be dispersed over the Highlands�察�each in his own wild recess�察�but the solemn stated meetings of the order were regularly held in this Cave of Benvenue。 This current superstition�察�no doubt�察�alludes to some circumstance in the ancient history of this country' ��Scenery on the Southern Confines of Perthshire�察�p。 19�察�1806��。 It must be owned that the Coir�察�or Den�察�does not�察�in its present state�察�meet our ideas of a subterraneous grotto or cave�察�being only a small and narrow cavity�察�among huge fragments of rocks rudely piled together。 But such a scene is liable to convulsions of nature which a Lowlander cannot estimate�察�and which may have choked up what was originally a cavern。 At least the name and tradition warrant the author of a fictitious tale to assert its having been such at the remote period in which this scene is laid。;

672。 A single page�察�etc。 Scott says�此 �A Highland chief�察�being as absolute in his patriarchal authority as any prince�察�had a corresponding number of officers attached to his person。 He had his body´guards�察�called Luichttach�察�picked from his clan for strength�察�activity�察�and entire devotion to his person。 These�察�according to their deserts�察�were sure to share abundantly in the rude profusion of his hospitality。 It is recorded�察�for example�察�by tradition�察�that Allan MacLean�察�chief of that clan�察�happened upon a time to hear one of these favorite retainers observe to his comrade�察�that their chief grew old。 'Whence do you infer that��' replied the other。 'When was it��' rejoined the first�察�'that a solider of Allan's was obliged�察�as I am now�察�not only to eat the flesh from the bone�察�but even to tear off the inner skin�察�or filament��' The hint was quite sufficient�察�and MacLean next morning�察�to relieve his followers from such dire necessity�察�undertook an inroad on the mainland�察�the ravage of which altogether effaced the memory of his former expeditions for the like purpose。
;Our officer of Engineers�察�so often quoted�察�has given us a distinct list of the domestic officers who�察�independent of Luichttach�察�or gardes de corps�察�belonged to the establishment of a Highland chief。 These are�察�1。 The Henchman。 2。 The Bard。 See preceding notes。 3。 Bladier�察�or spokesman。 4。 Gillie´more�察�or sword´bearer�察�alluded to in the text。 5。 Gillie´casflue�察�who carried the chief�察�if on foot�察�over the fords。 6。 Gillie´ comstraine�察�who leads the chief's horse。 7。 Gillie´ Trushanarinsh�察�the baggage´man。 8。 The piper。 9。 The piper's gillie�察�or attendant�察�who carries the bagpipe ��Letters from Scotland�察�vol。 ii。 p。 158��。 Although this appeared�察�naturally enough�察�very ridiculous to an English officer�察�who considered the master of such a retinue as no more than an English gentleman of ��00 a year�察�yet in the circumstances of the chief�察�whose strength and importance consisted in the number and attachment of his followers�察�it was of the last consequence�察�in point of policy�察�to have in his gift subordinate offices�察�which called immediately round his person those who were most devoted to him�察�and�察�being of value in their estimation�察�were also the means of rewarding them。;
