King of Glory! says I, 'hear the pride and ungratitude of her, and he giving his last guineas but a minute ago to her childer, and she with the fine shawl on her he made her a present of but yesterday! 'Oh, troth, Judy, you're wrong now, says my shister, looking at the shawl. 'And was not he wrong yesterday, then, says she, 'to be telling me I was greatly altered, to affront me?
King of Glory!" says I, "hear the pride and ungratitude of her, and he giving his last guineas but a minute ago to her childer, and she with the fine shawl on her he made her a present of but yesterday!" "Oh, troth, Judy, you're wrong now," says my shister, looking at the shawl. "And was not he wrong yesterday, then," says she, "to be telling me I was greatly altered, to affront me?"
Slowly the lids unclosed, and the sightless eyes turned upward toward the white face above them, and then Lucy saw there was no hope; the beautiful blue she had so envied in her wicked moods, was burned out, leaving only a blood-shot, whitish mass which would never again in this world see her or any other object. "No, shister," the little boy said, "I tan't see 'oo now.
'I'm frightened to see him, says she, 'and wouldn't nor couldn't stay in it; and what use? He can't last till the morning. With that she ran off. There was none but my shister and myself left near him of all the many friends he had.
The next morning when the house was cleared of them, and none but my shister and myself left in the kitchen with Sir Condy, one opens the door, and walks in, and who should it be but Judy M'Quirk herself!
'But, Judy, says I, 'what is it brings you here then at all in the mind you are in; is it to make Jason think the better of you? 'I'll tell you no more of my secrets, Thady, says she, 'nor would have told you this much, had I taken you for such an unnatural fader as I find you are, not to wish your own son prefarred to another. 'Oh, troth, you are wrong now, Thady, says my shister.
I could not tell it you; but did you but know how that Gerald O'Blaney insulted your shister with his vile proposhals, you'd no more ask the loan of his horse! and I in dread, whenever I'd be left in the house alone, that that bad man would boult in upon me and Randal to find him! and Randal's like gunpowder when his heart's touched! and if Randal should come by himself, worse again!
So I said not a word more, but was only glad his honour had not the luck to hear all Judy had been saying of him, for I reckoned it would have gone nigh to break his heart; not that I was of opinion he cared for her as much as she and my shister fancied, but the ungratitude of the whole from Judy might not plase him; and he could never stand the notion of not being well spoken of or beloved like behind his back.
I'll never call you flourishing Phil again, so don't be standing on pride. Suppose your shister has not a pinny, she's better than the best, and I'll love her and fold her to my ould warm heart, and the daughter of my heart she is now. Honor. Oh, mother! for you are my mother now and happy I am to have a mother in you. Mr. Carv. I protest it makes me almost almost blow my nose. Catty.
'Oh, trust him for that! he won't go security nor pay a farthing for his SHISTER, nor wouldn't was she his father; I heard him telling her so, which I could not have done in his place at that time, and she crying as if her heart would break, and I standing by in the parlour.
