In der 'Saint Kentigern's Cathedral' feiert Pinkerton einen Pfingstgottesdienst mit Abendmahl.

In the twantie-fifth o Mattha the Wird is souple this day: a waddin, a bride-groom hinnered tull the midnicht oor, five lassies that negleck their duty: ile for their crusies, sae that the door is steikit faan the feast begins. We first tak tent o the bride-groom’s sorrow. Sorrow that his feast is blaudit bi the loss o five, the five that shuid hae been the bringers o licht. Daes the bride-groom tak onie pleisure in thir empty seats? Sae think on this, my friens. Daes the Maister like His Kirk tae hirple on five vesselsless, or fifty less, Sunday bi Sunday? He needs your licht, fooiver smaa it seems. Think on the lassies, that sair rowed up in themsels they forgot tae honour the day. They ran for cover ahint ilkither. Kirsty said, “T he lave wull hae ile for sure!” Jinty said, “I winna be noticed gin it’s me that fails!” Bell wis ower thrang wi her bonnie hair tae check if her ile wis siccar. An sae wis Kate, trig in her braws. An Florie wis that ahin hersel she wis late for the grand occasion. Faa’s on yer mind faan ye come tae the Feast o love - You or the Lord, the gracious host at the table? We are nae ootlins here at the Boord. We ar socht an bidden, the door is nivver steikit. Nae lustre we lay claim tull wins us seats aside him at the Supper, bit the lowe o his beatin hairt o love, the love that gaurs Him cry us ben tae share the broken breid and the reid wine o sacrifice.
