But it was not O'Rourke's noble feast at all, it was O'Hara's noble feast, to the best of my knowledge I'll take my affidavit; and am not I here, on the spot, ready and proud to fight any one that denies the contrary? Let me alone, Florry, for I'm no babby to be taken out of the room.
Miss G. Oh! father, keep out you're not in a condition. Sir W. John! Thomas! carry this man off. Christy. Ah, now, just let me remark to his honour did he ever hear this song in England? "O'Rourke's noble feast shall ne'er be forgot, By those who were there, or by those who were not."
