“ ‘To unsteek their een, that they may turn them aboot frae the mirk intil the licht, and frae Sautanʼs rule to God; that they may hae their sins forgiʼen, and hae their lot amang them wha are sanctifyʼt by faith in me.’
And Peter said, “Ananias! Whaurfor has Sautan fillʼt yer heart, to play fause to the Holie Spirit, and to keep hidlins some oʼ the siller frae the grund?
Defraud‐ye‐na ane the ither, unless aiblins it may be for a wee, by consent, that ye may hae mair time for prayer: and forgather again, lest Sautin tempt ye wiʼ incontinence.
And whaur‐for, least by the unco greatness oʼ the revelation I soud be ower muckle upliftit, thar was giʼen to me a stog iʼ the flesh, a messenger oʼ Sautan that he micht baff me.
