His perpetual exclamation was, as we have already stated, "I'm blue-mowlded for want of a batin'!" They did everything in their power to cheer him with the hope of a drubbing; told him he lived in an excellent country for a man afflicted with his malady; and promised, if it were at all possible, to create him a private enemy or two, who, they hoped in heaven, might trounce him to some purpose.

This was a melancholy situation, and his friends pitied him accordingly. "Don't be cast down, Neal," said they; "your friends feel for you, poor fellow." "Divil carry my frinds," replied Neal; "sure, there's not one o' yez frindly enough to be my inimy. Tare an' ouns! what'll I do? I'm blue-mowlded for want of a batin'!"
The tailor collected himself to make a reply; he put one leg out the very leg which he used to show in triumph to his friend, but, alas, how dwindled! He opened his waistcoat and lapped it round him until he looked like a weasel on its hind legs. He then raised himself up on his tiptoes, and, in an awful whisper, replied, "No!!! the divil a bit I'm blue-mowlded for want of a batin'!"

"The thruth is," he exclaimed, strutting with fortitude about the house, "the thruth is, that I've done the whole of yez I'm as blue-mowlded as ever for want of a batin'." "Don't go," said the wife. "I will go," said Neal, with vehemence; "I'll go if the whole parish was to go to prevint me." In about another half-hour Neal sat down quietly to his business, instead of going to the fair!
