"So many," said Gilly of the Goatskin. "And how many horns have you counted?" "So many," said the King of Ireland's Son. Just as they were adding the two numbers together they both heard sounds in the air they were like the sounds that Bards make chanting their verses. And when they looked up they saw a swan flying round and round above them.
Nancy approached You Dirty Boy with a bloodthirsty glare in her eye. "Come along, you evil, uncanny thing!" she said. "Take hold of his other end, Gilly, and start for the barn; that's farthest away; but it's no use; he's just like that bloodstain on Lady Macbeth's hand, he will not out! Kathleen, open the linen trunk while we're gone. We can't set the table till these curses are removed.
Lord Melville was President of the India Board in the Duke of Wellington's administration in 1828, and again First Lord from Sept. 17 of the same year until Nov. 22, 1830. The Rev. William Stephen Gilly, D.D., Vicar of Norham, author of Narrative of an Excursion to the Mountains of Piemont, 1823; Researches among the Vaudois or Waldenses, 1827-31. See Raine's St. Cuthbert, 4to, Durham, 1828.
Gilly interrupted this sentence by rising and walking up to Samuel. He paused several inches away and eyed him fiercely. "You an' your crazy ole bed," he began. "You an' your crazy " "Go to it, Gilly," murmured some one. "Show the darn fool " Samuel returned the gaze coolly. "Well," he said finally, "it's my bed " He got no further, for Gilly hauled of and hit him succinctly in the nose.
Two youths who served me he took away, one after the other, and miserable are they made by what he did to them. I'm in dread of your being brought to the Townland of Mischance." "Why are you in dread of it, Spae-Woman?" said Gilly. "Sure, I'll be glad enough to see the world." "That's what the other two youths said," said the Spae-Woman.
"Something's up," grumbled Heywood, "when the doctor forgets to pose." Behind Chantel, as he wheeled, heaved the gray bullet-head and sturdy shoulders of Gilly. "Alone?" called the padre. "Why, where's the Mem?" He came up with evident weariness, but replied cheerfully: "She's very sorry, and sent chin-chins all round. But to-night Her journey, you know. She's resting.
Gilly, was the late General Beckwith, who followed up, with extraordinary energy, the work which the other had so well begun.

The pressure this man excited drove Gilly Jillingham nearly to despair.
He leaped over ditches, he rolled down hillsides, he raced over level places until he came to what surprised him more than all the things in the world a river. He had never seen such water before and he wondered to see it moving with swiftness. "Where is it going?" said Gilly of the Goatskin. "Does it go on like that in the night as well as in the day?" He ran by its side and shouted to the river.
"This is the most restful, peaceful spot I've ever struck," she said, leaning back with a sigh of pleasure. "Isn't it lovely, Gilly?

Don't they say Devon folk always want to come home to die? I'm not surprised."
