Prologue

Part 1: Nexus:

Hundredweight of stones

Dirty bastard

In which the women, as usual, pick up the pieces

Don't ask questions you don't want to hear the answers to

Passions of young men

Under my protection

Unintended consequences of ill-considered actions

Homo est obligamus aerobe (man is an obligate aerobe)-Hippocrates

Tide in the affairs of men

Descent of the holy ghost upon a reluctant disciple

Remember Paoli!

Eine kleine nachtmusik

Morning air awash with angels

Incipient thunder

Army on the move

Room for secrets

Freedom!

Nameless, homeless, destitute, and very drunk indeed

Desperate measures

Of cabbages and kings

Bloody men

Gathering storm

In which Mrs Figg takes a hand

Welcome coolness in the heat, comfort in the midst of woe

Give me liberty

Part 2: Meanwhile, Back At The Ranch:

Step into the dark

Nothing's so hard but search will find it out

Warmer, colder

Return to Lallybroch

Lights, action, sirens

Shine of a rocking horse's eyes

For many men who stumble at the threshold are well foretold that danger lurks within

It's best to sleep in a hale skin

Sanctuary

Gearasdan

Scent of a stranger

Cognosco te

Number of the beast

Ghost of a hangit man

Angels unaware

In which things converge

All my love

Apparition

Amphisbaena

Cure of souls

Baby Jesus, tell me

Part 3: Blade Fresh-Made From The Ashes Of Ashes Of The Forge:

Something suitable in which to go to war

Just for the fun of it

Uncertainty principle

Good shepherd

Scrounging

Morphia dreams

Taken at a disadvantage

In which I meet a turnip

Vestal virgins

Stinking papist

Do not go gentle into that good night

Castrametation

Discovery in the ranks

Quakers and quartermasters

Viscous three-way

Mule dislikes you

Alternate use for a penis syringe

Three hundred and one

Mosquitoes

War paint

Reaching for things that aren't there

Part 4: Day Of Battle:

Go out in darkness

Sparrow-fart

Single louse

Folie a Trois

Morasses and imbroglios

Peculiar behavior of a tent

Sort of thing that will make a man sweat and tremble

Cider orchard

Dangers of surrender

Price of burnt sienna

In the wrong place at the wrong time

High noon

Pater noster

Among the tombstones

Part 5: Counting Noses:

Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there

Sundown

Nightfall

Long road home

In which rosy-fingered dawn shows up mob-handed

Moonrise

Whiff of Roquefort

One day, cock of the walk-next day, a feather duster

It's a wise child who knows his father

Keeping score

I will not have thee be alone

House on Chestnut street

Sense of the meeting

Coda in three-two time

Part 6: Ties That Bind:

Body electric

Nay great shortage of hair in Scotland

Man to do a man's job

Wall

Radar

Be those thy beasts?

Just one chance

Postpartum

Solstice

Succubus of cranesmuir

No a very good person

Brother of the lodge

Burying ground

Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away

Frottage

Sounds that make up silence

Part 7: Before I Go Hence:

Distant massacre

Daylight haunting

Thanks for all the fish

Belief is a wise wager

Raveled sleeve of care

Hunting we will go

Into the briar patch

Second law of thermodynamics

Alas, poor yorick!

Crackling of thorns

Walking on coals

Hallowed ground

Part 8: Search And Rescue:

Quod scripsi, scripsi

Brought to you by the letters Q, E, and D

Squid of the evening, beautiful squid

Oglethorpe plan

Plumbing

Gigging frogs

Invasion

Sovereign cure

Born gambler

Will-o-the wisp

Last resort

Last rites

Amaranthus

Unfinished business

Part 9: Thig Crioch Air An T-Saghal Ach Mairidh Ceol Agus Goal:

In the wilderness a lodging place

Fanny's frenulum

Visit to the trading post

Woman, wilt thou lie with me?

Deepest feeling always shows itself in silence

Things coming into view

Interruptus

Visit to a haunted garden

You know that
