"You're a scholar, sir, an' but maybe I'm sayin' what I oughtn't to say but sure, God knows, it's all very well known long ago." "What is it, M'Cormick?" asked John; "speak out plainly; we will not feel offended." "'Twas only this, sir," continued Nogher, "I'm an unlarned man; but he would write to you may be I mane Connor an' if he did, I'd be glad to hear but I hope I don't offind you, sir.
An' thin I felt I could believe it; for, bedad, nobody but a madman could have drawn up sich a measure, to offind everybody, an' plaze nobody. 'Tis what ye'd expect from a lunatic asylum. But, thin, 'tis Home Rule. 'Tis the principle; an' as the mimber for Roscommon says, ''Tis ourselves will apply it, an' 'tis ourselves will explain it. That's where we'll rape the advantage, says he."
It's only throwing pearls before swine." "I didn't mane to offind you," replied the warm-hearted brother; "I meant you no offince in what I said, so don't take it ill we'll have Sobersides out in no time and barrin' an extra rubbin' down to both of you, neither will be the worse, I hope."
"No, avourneen, you did not; for it wasn't in you to offind a child." "Alley, you'll pardon me an' forgive me acushla, if ever if ever I did what was displasin' to you! An' call in the childhre, till I see them about me I want to have their forgiveness, too. I know I'll have it for they wor good childhre, an' ever loved me." Blessed Queen of Heaven, what will we do!
And were it not that I confront the offince with your own ignorance, I would expose you before the townland in which we stand; ay, to the whole parish but I spare you, out of respect to my own consequence." "I ax your pardon," said the brother, "I won't offind you in the same way again. What I said, I said to you as I thought a brother might I ax your pardon!"
The children with a simultaneous movement encircled his bed, and could not reply for some minutes. "Never, father darlin'! Oh, never did you offind us! Don't speak in that way, or you'll break our hearts; but forgive us, father asthore! Oh, forgive an' bless us, an' don't remimber against us, our folly an' disobedience, for it's only now that we see we warn't towards you as we ought to be.
"'Hut, Billy, says I, 'sure it was all out of kindness; he didn't mane to offind you.
