shelty

I can carry a ship through any sea a ship can live in; I could not drive a Shetland shelty down an empty street.

But at this moment Surefoot is stretched more like a stone than a shelty in the land of Nod.

The sons were about to cross a voe or ferry; but one was to take his shelty, while the rest were to go by the boat.

When the deed was done the shelty was brought back to its tether as mysteriously as it had been taken away.
