Here, Madgey, come here, I say; take that whiskey an' sugar, an' mix yourselves a jorum; it's far in the night, but no matther for that an' see, before you mix it, go an' bring my own darlin' Art, till he dhrinks his mother's health." "Why now, Art," began his brother, "is it possible that you can have the conscience to taich the poor boy sich a cursed habit so soon?
Aristocracy, Hinnissy, is like rale estate, a matther iv location. I'm aristocracy to th' poor O'Briens back in th' alley, th' brewery agent's aristocracy to me, his boss is aristocracy to him, an' so it goes, up to the czar of Rooshia. He's th' pick iv th' bunch, th' high man iv all, th' Pope not goin' in society. Well, Mrs. Cassidy was aristocracy to O'Leary.
But don't ask f'r rights. Take thim. An' don't let anny wan give thim to ye. A right that is handed to ye f'r nawthin' has somethin' th' matther with it.

"Who goes there?" repeated the sentry's voice. "Sure I don't go at all, that's what's the matther," said the boatman, unconsciously anticipating a slang phrase of later times.

"What's the matther, Ailey?" asked the pedlar; "are you out o' tobaccy?" "Throth it's time for you to ax ay am I; since I ate my dinner, sorra puff I had."
'Nothin', sez I, 'but a great dale to you, for begad I'm thinkin' you get the full half av your revenue from that sedan-chair. Is ut always raffled so? I sez, an' wid that I wint to a coolie to ask questions. Bhoys, that man's name is Dearsley, an' he's been rafflin' that ould sedan-chair monthly this matther av nine months.
Come, Anty, dear, what's the good of losing time? I've been thinking of little else; and, after what's been between us, you must have thought the matther over too, though you do let on to be so innocent. Come, Anty, now that you and mother's so thick, there can be nothing against it." "But indeed there is, Martin, a great dale against it though I'm sure it's good of you to be thinking of me.
"Matther is it? Murther's the matther," and he gave another vicious stamp, and then took a stride that nearly cost him his balance, and gave another.

"No matther," said Art; "it's a thing I won't do." "I'll tell you what, Jerry," said Toal, "I'll hould you another pound now, that I do a thing to-night that Art won't do; an' that, like your own wager, every one in the room can do." "Done," said the other, taking out the pound note, and placing it in Mooney's hand Toal following his example.
"Well," said he, "that's better than cowld bog wather; how would the rich like to see their sick childre put on cowld wather and cowld pratees? But who cares for the rich, for the rich doesn't care about huz; but no matther, white-head if you'll only just open your eyes and spake to me, I'll give you the cock."
