All these little services he performed kindly and promptly; many a blessing was fervently invoked upon his head; the "good word" and "the prayer" were all they could afford, as they said, "to the bouchal dhas oge * that tuck the world an him for sake o' the larnin', an' that hasn't the kindliness o' the mother's breath an' the mother's hand near him, the crathur." * The pretty young boy.
Why, alanna, it's nothin' at all you've tuck; sure little Brian there would make a fool of you, so he would, at the atin'. Come, come, a bouchal don't be ashamed, or make any way sthrange at all, but ate hearty." "I declare I have ate heartily, thank you," replied James; "oceans itself, so I did. I couldn't swally a bit more if the house was full."
"Be aisy, me darlint," he rejoined in his funny way; "an' if ye can't be aisy, be as aisy as ye can! Now, go on ahid wid ye'r foorst question `one dog, one bone, as me ould friend Dan'l sez." "Well, what have become of all the sailors?" I asked to begin with. "The sailors? Why, here we are, sure, all aloive an' kickin'! What do ye take me an' me lazy mates here for, ma bouchal?"
"You were, Paddy an' Paddy, ma bouchal, what war you doing there, Paddy?" "Masther, sir, spake to Jem Kenny here; he made my nose bleed." "Eh, Paddy?" "I was br ingin' her a layin' hen, sir, that my mother promised her at mass on Sunday last." Paddy, can you spell Nebachodnazure for me?" "No, sir." "No, nor a better scholar, Paddy, could not do that, ma bouchal; but I'll spell it for you.
"Frank, a bouchal," said Barny, commencing to address him in a conciliatory tone "Frank, man alive " "Hould your tongue, I say, you blind vagabone, or by the night above us, I'll break your fiddle over your skull, if you dar to say another word. What I swore I'll do, an' let no one crass me."
Done nodded his head, and watched her apprehensively. She was not disturbed; next moment there was merriment in the eyes turned up to him from where her head nestled on his breast. 'Mike thinks we are wasting valuable time here. And you are, too. Good luck go wid you, ma bouchal' She kissed the point of his chin.

Two young men in especial, who were both dying about the lovely creature that he held, were quite anxious to give advice. "'Bring her to the other side, John, ma bouchal; it's the safest, said Larry Carty. "'Will you let him alone, Carty? said Simon Tracy, who was the other, 'you'll only put him in a perplexity. "But Carty should order in spite of every thing.
"The next is marrying. A bouchal puts an ould dark coat on him, and if he can, borry a wig from any of the ould men in the wake-house, why, well and good, he's the liker his work this is the priest; he takes, and drives all the young men out of the house, and shuts the door upon them, so, that they can't get in till he lets them.
Only twice in his life had he kissed a woman, and as if greedy from long fasting he kissed her now, lips, cheeks, eyes, and neck. His lips searched the deep corners of her mouth. 'But you don't say you love me, ma bouchal! Aurora murmured, and her arms tightened about his neck. 'You are beautiful! You are beautiful! he said fiercely. 'But you don't say you love me!
