"I know his riverence well, and there isn't a praste like him in all the country round; though, to tell you the truth, Misther Barry, he isn't much in favour with the Spaniards or monks up in the towns, for he's a mighty great Liberal, and is as ready to fight as to pray for the cause of the Republicans."
And says Mika, "Not I, your Riverence. I got myself into a passion 'fore I let loose." I believe she smoked this identical pipe. She acknowledged the merits of my whisky, as poets do hearing fine verses, never clapping hands, but with the expressiveness of grave absorption. That's the way to make good things a part of you. She was a treat.

Polymathers, "to proceeding to the Degree of Baccalaureatus in Artibus, or In Artibus Baccalaureatus the ordo verborum is, I take it, immaterial, to judge by the transposition of initials in the case of ."
