Sure I have ivery quollification. Wasn't I born among yez? Wasn't I rared among yez? Don't I know what yez wants? An' didn't I go many a day widout a male? Aye, that I did, an' could do it again!
"Then, you don't know your course, it appears?" "O, faix I knew it iligant, as long as your honor was before me." "But you don't know your course back?" "Why, indeed, not to say rightly all out, your honor." "Can't you steer?" said the captain. "The divil a betther hand at the tiller in all Kinsale," said Barny, with his usual brag.

"How could I help it?" said Andy. "Augh! you bothered the job just the way you do everything," said his mother.
"Well, we dhrifted away all that night, and next mornin' we put up a blanket an the end av a pole as well as we could, and then we sailed iligant; for we darn't show a stitch o' canvas the night before, bekase it was blowin' like bloody murther, savin' your presence, and sure it's the wondher of the world we worn't swally'd alive by the ragin' sae.
