"Poison!" gasped Dinny Johnny, falling down at full length on the grass, "the wood's poisoned!" When they went back to look for "Matchbox" she was still lying in the bohireen. Her bridle had vanished, and so had the pursuing countrymen. Mary O'Grady's saddle was broken, and could never be used again, and no more could "Matchbox," because she had broken her neck.
"In the latter end we got there," said Gallagher, "but at the first go off I took him along the road past the workhouse." "That wasn't quite the shortest route," said Dr. O'Grady. "In fact you began by going in exactly the opposite direction." "After that we went round by Barney's Hill," said Gallagher, "and along the bohireen by the side of the bog, me telling him the turns he ought to take."
She left the road at the foot of the hill, and picked her way along the rough bohireen which led upwards along the course of the stream. After awhile even this track disappeared. The stream tumbled noisily over rocks and stones, the bog-stained water glowing auburn-coloured in the sunlight. The ling and heather were springy under her feet, and the air was sweet with the scent of the bog-myrtle.
There was a stone stile out of a bohireen that stopped every one, and he changed feet on the flag on top and went down by the steps on the other side. No one need believe this unless they like, but I saw him do it. The country boys were most exhilarating. How they got there I don't know, but they seemed to spring up before us wherever we went.
Robert pushed through them and turned up a bohireen i.e., a narrow and incredibly badly made lane and I presently heard him cheering the hounds into covert.
