At this rate they went on for long enough, until both began to fail, and to appear nearly run down. At length the gallaut Koolawn had her; she gave a squeal that was heard, they say, for miles. He had her, I say, hard and fast by the hip, but it was only for a moment; how she escaped; from him nobody knows; but it was thought that he wasn't able, from want of breath, to keep his hoult.
"And do you think, sir," said Darby, "that if they had a hard or an enlightened hoult of their own creed, that that would do it?" The whip here described a circle, one part of whose circumference sang within a few inches of Darby's ear who, forgetting his relish for martyrdom, drew back his head to avoid it.
The servants' hall used to take a tender interest in those bad days. "Somebody ought to spake to her," said Bridget. "Supposin' the gout was to go to his heart! He was bad enough after the last time she was here." "She'll never lave hoult of him," said Pat, solemnly. "The sort of her Ladyship houlds on the tighter the more you wriggle.
Then when she sneezes you pull her orf, and hoult fast." The fear of the men that the horse would be killed overpowered their dread of the dog, and each took a firm grip upon its collar. Then Jack placed a large pinch of snuff to its nostrils.
Thady here, that struck the blow we ought to have struck?" "Thrue for you, Joe," said Abraham; "so hould yer jaw, Dan, and give me hoult of the blessed book till I give him the oath."
