Walter Scott and the Beggar
Sir Walter Scott was riding one day in the neighbourhood of Abbotsford, his residence; be came to a field-gate through which he wanted to pass and which an Irish beggar, who happened to be near, hastened to open for him.
Walter Scott wanted to give him a six penny piece to reward him for this service; but not finding any in his purse he presented him with a shilling saying, "You will owe me six pence, my good fellow." "God bless you!"said the beggar: "May your honor live until I pay you!"
沃尔特司各脱和乞丐
一天、沃尔特司各脱爵士在他的住地阿博特斯福特附近骑马,他来到一个篱笆门前,想过去.一个刚巧在近旁的爱尔兰乞丐急忙为他打开了门.
沃尔特司各脱想奖赏给他一枚六便士的硬币,但他在钱包里找不到便士,于是他给了他一个先令,说:"你将欠我六便士,我亲爱的朋友."乞丐说:"上帝保佑您!愿阁下长寿,直到我能还清债的那一天!"
