In Freedom’s Cause

CHAPTER XV
10/19

Money I have none; but with these you may succeed in winning the hearts of some of these savage chieftains.

Take, too, my royal signet, which will be a guarantee that you have power to treat in my name.

I need not tell you to be brave, Sir Archie; but be prudent--remember that your life is of the utmost value to me.

I want you not to fight, but simply to act as my envoy.

If you succeed in raising a great fire in the west of Ireland, remain there and act as councillor to the chiefs, remembering that you are just as much fighting for Scotland there as if you were drawing sword against her foes at home.
