DR. MACKNIGHT, who was a better commentator than preacher, having been
caught in a shower of rain, entered the vestry soaked with wet. As the
time drew on for divine service he became much distressed, and
ejaculated over and over, O, I wish that I was dry! Do you think I'm

Henry, the historian, returned: Bide a wee, doctor, and ye'se be dry
eneuch when ye get into the pu'pit.
