The Rousay Clearances

My parting view of the Sutherland interior this morning....from the seat of my car. Quite apt I thought, given the reason why so many folk were cleared off the land in the 19th Century.

When all the others were away at Mass I was all hers as we peeled potatoes. They broke the silence, let fall one by one Like solder weeping off the soldering iron: Cold comforts set between us, things to share Gleaming in a bucket of clean water. And again let fall. Little pleasant splashes From each other’s work would bring us to our senses. So while the parish priest at her bedside Went hammer and tongs at the prayers for the dying And some were responding and some crying I remembered her head bent towards my head, Her breath in mine, our fluent dipping knives— Never closer the whole rest of our lives.

Clearances, by Seamus Heaney

There are still Yoons out there that will tell you the  Scottish Clearances were just people  simply emigrating.....
