"D n it, Dan, I didn't think you war that main, to be charging a boy for the morsel he'd be ating, an' the sup he'd be taking, an' him undher a cloud, an' he afther doing us sich a sarvice." "Av he wor one of ourselves," replied Dan; "but a gintleman the likes of him, may be, would be plased not to be beholden to the likes of us."
"I disremember now what passed between us as to words but I know I had a duck-egg in my hand, and when she spoke, I raised my arm, and nailed poor Larry Tracy, our servant boy, between the two eyes with it, although the crathur was ating his dinner quietly fornent me, not saying a word.
She might stop here till the five, and we 'll find out all about her. She 'll have a very lonesome day, whoiver she is.

"By the powers, that's no fool of a word! it will take us all the way to Saint Petersburg as fast as we wish." "We do not sleep on the road, but travel night and day," said O'Donahue, "for there is no place worth sleeping at." "And the 'ating, O'Donahue?"
"Ah, if there was more of your sort, sir, there'd be a deal less trouble in the world, there would. Not that my young gentleman is troublesome, mind you, only so full of them outlandish furrin ways abideth all day long without ating ort, so different from a honest Englishman.
Squire's at laste, most of you do and ould Willy Butledge, the fiddler, that spint his time between Tom's and the big house God,be good to Wilty! it's himself was the droll man entirely: he died of ating boiled banes, for a wager that the Squire laid on him agin ould Captain Mint, and dhrinking porter after them till he was swelled like a tun; but the Squire berried him at his own expense.

"And a little tripe and onions, or a swatebread after it, with pudding and lashings of sherry wine, I'll be bound," said Grady. "Get along wid ye, it's Lord Mayor of London ye ought to be. Why, man, it's fighting and not ating ye've come out here for."
"Yes, madam, I have the needful in abundance. Ecce signum! Which is Latin, madam, for the stamps of the king upon twenty guineas. One to be deposited in your fair hand for a taste, for a sniff, madam, such as I had of your pot." "Na, na. No tokkins till a' airned them. What ood your Warship be for ating when a' boileth?"
I 'd no call to grow such stramming great things in my piece annyway, 'ating up all the goodness from me beautiful cabbages."
