Everybody but me wants to know what kind of a to-morrow God Almighty has made for him. I make my own to-morrows! I don't ask to have my destiny made up for me like a t-t-tailor coat. I make my own destiny. If things d-d-don't come my way, I just pull them! People talk about 'following Providence! I follow Providence as an Irishman follows his wheel-barrow. I shove it! See?
We lost it, an' please your honour, somehow betwixt us but your honour was as free from love then, as I am 'twas just whilst thou went'st off with the wheel-barrow with Mrs. Wadman, quoth my uncle Toby She has left a ball here added my uncle Toby pointing to his breast She can no more, an' please your honour, stand a siege, than she can fly cried the corporal
Whenever the narrow sulky turned in at a gate, the rustic who was digging potatoes, or hoeing corn, or swishing through the grass with his scythe in wave-like crescents, or stepping short behind a loaded wheel-barrow, or trudging lazily by the side of the swinging, loose-throated, short-legged oxen, rocking along the road as if they had just been landed after a three-months' voyage, the toiling native, whatever he was doing, stopped and looked up at the house the doctor was visiting.
On the road he found one who staggered behind a laborious wheel-barrow in the direction of Loo-chow. At that moment he had stopped to take down the sail, as the breeze was bereft of power among the obstruction of the trees, and also because he was weary. "Greeting," called down Kai Lung, saluting him. "There is here protection from the fierceness of the sun and a stream wherein to wash your feet."
And, as they couldn't honestly do that, they obeyed him and left Mr. Jinks in his unhonoured grave, with a broken wheel-barrow for a headstone and a mass of wire-netting to make resurrection difficult.
"Well, indeed," he continued, "the preacher on Sunday night told us the end of the world was coming, and now I believe it!" and he put down his wheel-barrow, and stood stock still while the visitors approached. "Borau-da!" said the Vicare, in a constrained voice. "Borau-da," was all Shoni's answer, and seeing a dogged look come into his face, Lewis Wynne took the lead in the conversation.

How is a woman not to have a headache, when she carries a thing on the back of her poll as big as a gardener's wheel-barrow? Come, it's a fine evening, and we'll go out and look at the towers. You've never even seen them yet, I suppose?"
It was droll for a tiny boy to wear such heavy clogs upon his feet, but droller still to see him resting his curly head upon the horse's mane. "Ums the Charlie boy," said Katie; "um can't sit up no more." "Ah, my boy, seems to me you take it very easy," said Abner, who was just coming in from the garden, giving some weeds a ride in the "one-wheeled coach," or wheel-barrow.
"'Well, I'll tell you, says the feller, 'the Swedes invented the wheel-barrow and then they learned you Irish to stand on your hind legs and run it! Har, har, har; he had him going that time the Mick couldn't think what else to do so he went to heaving bricks." "Yes sure," nodded Denver, "that was one on the Irish.
