Run now, acushla, an' if you fall don't wait to rise; an' Shibby, darlin', do you whang down a lot o' that bacon into rashers, 'your father must be at death's door wid hunger; but wasn't it well that I thought of having the whiskey in, for you see afther Thursday last we didn't know what minute you'd dhrop in on us, Tom, an' I said it was best to be prepared.
Now bring me my staff, from undher the bed above; an', in the name o' God, I'll set out." "Which o' them, Owen? Is it the oak or the blackthorn?" "The oak, acushla. Oh, no; not the blackthorn. It's it that I brought to Dublin wid me, the unlucky thief, an' that I had while we wor a shaughran. Divil a one o' me but 'ud blush in the face, if I brought it even in my hand afore them.
Didn't they go into my heart at the time, an' how could I forget them? But I can't bear, somehow, to look back at what we wor then, bekase I feel my heart brakin', acushla!" "Well, Vara, look at me. Amn't I a poor wasted crathur now, in comparishment to what I was thin?" "God he sees the change that's in you, darlin'! But sure 'twasn't your fau't, or mine either, Dominick, avilish!"
I had the two called in, and they came hand in hand as usual. The elder looked at me as if she couldn't take her eyes off my face. "Look at this woman," I said to her; "she wants to speak to you.

Denis's uncle now interposed: "The horses," said he, "are at the door, an' time's passin'." "Och, thrue for you, Barny," said old Denis; "come, acushla, an' let me help you on your horse. We will go on quickly, as we're to meet Father Finnerty at the crass-roads." Denis then shook hands with them all, not forgetting honest Phadrick Murray, who exclaimed, as he bid him farewell, "Arrah!
"Well, well, there's no arguin' wid you," said the pedlar, "all I say is, that you ought to part wid it, acushla by all means you ought." "Never mind him, Mave darlin'," said her mother, whose motive in saying so was altogether dictated by affectionate apprehensions for her health. "No," replied her daughter, "it is not my intention, mother, to part with what God has given me.
