"Susan," said Gillie, one morning, entering the private apartment of Mrs Stoutley's maid with the confidence of a privileged friend, flinging himself languidly into a chair and stretching out his little legs with the air of a rather used-up, though by no means discontented, man, "Susan, this is a coorious world wery coorious the most coorious I may say that I ever come across."
"Amazing phase of human life!" observed Mrs Tipps, gazing in admiration at the stalwart giant who stood deferentially before her. "Well, it was a raither coorious kind o' proposal," said Marrot with a smile, "but it worked uncommon well. I've never wanted to uncouple since then."
Do you refer to this part of it, or to the whole of it?" "Well, for the matter of that," replied Gillie, crossing his legs, and folding his hands over his knee, as he looked gravely up in Susan's pretty face, "I means the whole of it, this part included, and the people in it likewise. Don't suppose that I go for to exclude myself. We're all coorious, every one on us." "What! me too?"
"I judge you'm a furriner, else you'd knawn 'bout the wickedness o' blackthorn." "I am. Thank you very much. But for you I should have gone home wearing it. That puts me in your debt, Joan." "'Tain't nothin', awnly there's a many coorious Carnish things like that. An' coorious customs what some doan't hold with an' some does."
"Has she any sisters?" enquired Joe Dumsby eagerly, as Ned folded the letter and replaced it in his pocket. "Six of 'em," replied Ned; "every one purtier and better nor another." "Is it a long way to Galway?" continued Joe. "Not long; but it's a coorious thing that Englishmen never come back from them parts whin they wance ventur' into them."
"Dom' coorious that," remarked Casey to his comrade McDermott. "Thim operators knowed we'd stop, anyway." That was the opinion of the several other laborers on the front car. And when the work-train halted, that car had run beyond the station a few rods. Casey and his comrades jumped off. A little group of men awaited them. The operator, a young fellow named Collins, was known to Casey.
Coorious to look at, but a good un to eat I make no doubt that's a foundation for 'ee there, cut 'im up an' fire away; ye can't listen properly to me discoorse till you git yer jaws to work. This here is a pie o' some sort, I shud say, havin' regard to the shape, only that ain't the sort o' wittles a Jew would send 'ee, is it?
"Chill-fashion weddin'," said Will, as he walked homewards, "but it 'pears to me all Blanchards be fated to wed coorious. Well, 't is a gude matter out o' hand. I knaw I raged somethin' terrible come I fust heard it, but I think differ'nt now, specially when I mind what Chris must have felt those times she seed me welting her child an' heard un yell, yet set her teeth an' never shawed a sign."
"Is that all?" said Rodney Nick, impatiently. "No that's not all," replied his companion, "though if it was all, it's a rather coorious fact, for which ye might thank me for takin' the trouble to tell you. But you're thankless by nature. It seems to me that nother you nor me's likely to trouble Guy Foster to look arter our spare cash in that way! But that ain't the end o' my story yet."
My eye studies you and stamps you upon my brain; then, when night comes, and no man works, and the world is dark and silent, my brain sets off on its own account and raises up a magic vision just to show me what you really are how different to this poor daub here." "Lard, Mister Jan! I never heard tell of sich a coorious thing as that."
