520 _aThe Heart of Mid-Lothian is the seventh and finest of Scott's Waverley Novels. Set in the 1730s in a Scotland uneasily united with England, the novel dramatizes different kinds of justice: That meted out by the Edinburgh mob in the lyching of one Captain Porteous, and that encountered by a young girl on trial for infanticide.
