riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from swerve of shore to bend of bay, brings us by

a commodius vicus of recirculation back to Howth Castle and Environs.

Sir Tristram, violer d'amores, fr'over the short sea, had passencore rearrived

from North Armorica on this side the scraggy isthmus of Europe Minor to

wielderfight his penisolate war: nor had topsawyer's rocks by the stream Oconee

exaggerated themselse to Laurens County's gorgios while they went doublin their

mumper all the time: nor avoice from afire bellowsed mishe mishe to tauftauf

thuartpeatrick not yet, though venissoon after, had a kidscad buttended a bland

old isaac: not yet, though all's fair in vanessy, were sosie sesthers wroth with

twone nathandjoe. Rot a peck of pa's malt had Jhem or Shen brewed by arclight

The fall

(bababadalgharaghtakamminarronnkonnbronntonnerronntuonnthunntrovarrhounawnskawntoohoohoordenenthurnuk!)

of a once wallstrait oldparr is retaled early in bed and later on life down

through all christian minstrelsy. The great fall of the offwall entailed at such

short notice the pftjschute of Finnegan, erse solid man, that the humptyhillhead

of humself prumptly sends an unquiring one well to the west in quest of his

tumptytumtoes: and their upturnpikepointandplace is at the knock out in the park

where oranges have been laid to rust upon the green since devlinsfirst loved

What clashes here of wills gen wonts, oystrygods gaggin fishygods! Brekkek

Kekkek Kekkek Kekkek! Koax Koax Koax! Ualu Ualu Ualu! Quaouauh! Where the

Baddelaries partisans are still out to mathmaster Malachus Micgranes and the

Verdons catapelting the camibalistics out of the Whoyteboyce of Hoodie Head.

Assiegates and boomeringstroms. Sod's brood, be me fear! Sanglorians, save! Arms

apeal with larms, appalling. Killykillkilly: a toll, a toll. What chance

Bygmester Finnegan, of the Stuttering Hand, freemen's maurer, lived in the

broadest way immarginable in his rushlit toofarback for messuages before joshuan

judges had given us numbers or Helviticus committed deuteronomy (one yeastyday

he sternely struxk his tete in a tub for to watsch the future of his fates but

ere he swiftly stook it out again, by the might of moses, the very water was

eviparated and all the guenneses had met their exodus so that ought to show you

what a pentschanjeuchy chap he was!) and during mighty odd years this man of

hod, cement and edifices in Toper's Thorp piled buildung supra buildung pon the

banks for the livers by the Soangso. He addle liddle phifie Annie ugged the

little craythur. Wither hayre in honds tuck up your part inher. Oftwhile

balbulous, mithre ahead, with goodly trowel in grasp and ivoroiled overalls

which he habitacularly fondseed, like Haroun Childeric Eggeberth he would

caligulate by multiplicables the alltitude and malltitude until he seesaw by

neatlight of the liquor wheretwin 'twas born, his roundhead staple of other days

to rise in undress maisonry upstanded (joygrantit!), a waalworth of a skyerscape

of most eyeful hoyth entowerly, erigenating from next to nothing and

celescalating the himals and all, hierarchitectitiptitoploftical, with a burning

bush abob off its baubletop and with larrons o'toolers clittering up and tombles

a'buckets clottering down.

Of the first was he to bare arms and a name: Wassaily Booslaeugh of

Riesengeborg. His crest of huroldry, in vert with ancillars, troublant, argent,

a hegoak, poursuivant, horrid, horned. His scutschum fessed, with archers

strung, helio, of the second. Hootch is for husbandman handling his hoe.

Hohohoho, Mister Finn, you're going to be Mister Finnagain! Comeday morm and, O,

you're vine! Sendday's eve and, ah, you're vinegar! Hahahaha, Mister Funn,

What then agentlike brought about that tragoady thundersday this municipal sin

but we hear also through successive ages that shebby choruysh of unkalified

out of heaven. Stay us wherefore in our search for tighteousness, O Sustainer,

what time we rise and when we take up to toothmick and before we lump down upown

Almost rubicund Salmosalar, ancient fromout the ages of the Agapemonides, he is

Yet may we not see still the brontoichthyan form outlined aslumbered, even in

Brunto has a lean on. Hic cubat edilis. Apud libertinam parvulam. Whatif she be

Phew!

What a warm time we were in there but how keling is here the airabouts! We

nowhere she lives but you mussna tell annaone for the lamp of Jig-a-Lanthern!

It's a candlelittle houthse of a month and one windies. Downadown, High

Downadown. And nummered quaintlymine. And such reasonable weather too ! The

wagrant wind's awalt'zaround the piltdowns and on every blasted knollyrock (if

you can spot fifty I spy four more) there's that gnarlybird ygathering, a

runalittle, doalittle, preealittle, pouralittle, wipealittle,

his seven wrothschields lies one, Lumproar. His glav toside him. Skud ontorsed.

Our pigeons pair are flewn for northcliffs. The three of crows have flapped it

southenly, kraaking of de baccle to the kvarters of that sky whence triboos

answer; Wail, 'tis well! She niver comes out when Thon's on shower or when

Thon's flash with his Nixy girls or when Thon's blowing toomcracks down the

gaels of Thon. No nubo no! Neblas on you liv! Her would be too moochy afreet. Of

Burymeleg and Bindmerollingeyes and all the deed in the woe. Fe fo fom! She jist

does hopes till byes will be byes. Here, and it goes on to appear now, she

comes, a peacefugle, a parody's bird, a peri potmother, a pringlpik in the

ilandiskippy, with peewee and powwows in beggybaggy on her bickybacky and a

flick flask fleckflinging its pixylighting pacts' huemeramybows, picking here,

pecking there, pussypussy plunderpussy. But it's the armitides toonigh,

militopucos, and toomourn we wish for a muddy kissmans to the minutia workers

and there's to be a gorgeups truce for happinest childher everwere. Come nebo me

and suso sing the day we sallybright. She's burrowed the coacher's headlight the

better to pry (who goes cute goes siocur and shoos aroun) and all spoiled goods

go into her nabsack: curtrages and rattlin buttins, nappy spattees and flasks of

all nations, clavicures and scampulars, maps, keys and woodpiles of haypennies

and moonled brooches with bloodstaned breeks in em, boaston nightgarters and

masses of shoesets and nickelly nacks and foder allmicheal and a lugly parson of

cates and howitzer muchears and midgers and maggets, ills and ells with loffs of

toffs and pleures of bells and the last sigh that come fro the hart (bucklied!)

and the fairest sin the sunsaw (that's cearc!). With Kiss. Kiss Criss. Cross

Criss. Kiss Cross. Undo lives 'end. Slain.

How bootifull and how truetowife of her, when strengly forebidden, to steal our

historic presents from the past postpropheticals so as to will make us all lordy

heirs and ladymaidesses of a pretty nice kettle of fruit. She is livving in our

midst of debt and laffing through all plores for us (her birth is

uncontrollable), with a naperon for her mask and her sabboes kickin arias (so

sair! so solly!) if yous ask me and I saack you. Hou! Hou! Gricks may rise and

Troysirs fall (there being two sights for ever a picture) for in the byways of

high improvidence that's what makes lifework leaving and the world's a cell for

citters to cit in. Let young wimman run away with the story and let young min

talk smooth behind the butteler's back. She knows her knight's duty while Luntum

sleeps. Did ye save any tin? says he. Did I what? with a grin says she. And we

all like a marriedann because she is mercenary. Though the length of the land

lies under liquidation (floote!) and there's nare a hairbrow nor an eyebush on

this glaubrous phace of Herrschuft Whatarwelter she'll loan a vesta and hire

some peat and sarch the shores her cockles to heat and she'll do all a turfwoman

can to piff the business on. Paff. To puff the blaziness on. Poffpoff. And even

if Humpty shell fall frumpty times as awkward again in the beardsboosoloom of

all our grand remonstrancers there'll be iggs for the brekkers come to mournhim,

sunny side up with care. So true is it that therewhere's a turnover the tay is

wet too and when you think you ketch sight of a hind make sure but you're cocked

by a hin.

Then as she is on her behaviourite job of quainance bandy, fruting for

firstlings and taking her tithe, we may take our review of the two mounds to see

nothing of the himples here as at elsewhere, by sixes and sevens, like so many

heegills and collines, sitton aroont, scentbreeched ant somepotreek, in their

swishawish satins and their taffetaffe tights, playing Wharton's Folly, at a

treepurty on the planko in the purk. Stand up, mickos! Make strake for minnas !

By order, Nicholas Proud. We may see and hear nothing if we choose of the

shortlegged bergins off Corkhill or the bergamoors of Arbourhill or the

bergagambols of Summerhill or the bergincellies of Miseryhill or the

countrybossed bergones of Constitutionhill though every crowd has its several

tones and every trade has its clever mechanics and each harmonical has a point

of its own, Olaf's on the rise and Ivor's on the lift and Sitric's place's

between them. But all they are all there scraping along to sneeze out a

likelihood that will solve and salve life's robulous rebus, hopping round his

middle like kippers on a griddle, O, as he lays dormont from the macroborg of

Holdhard to the microbirg of Pied de Poudre. Behove this sound of Irish sense.

Really? Here English might be seen. Royally? One sovereign punned to petery

pence. Regally? The silence speaks the scene. Fake!

So This Is Dyoublong?

Hush! Caution ! Echoland !

How charmingly exquisite! It reminds you of the outwashed engravure that we used

to be blurring on the blotchwall of his innkempt house. Used they? (I am sure

that tiring chabelshoveller with the mujikal chocolat box, Miry Mitchel, is

listening) I say, the remains of the outworn gravemure where used to be blurried

the Ptollmens of the Incabus. Used we? (He is only pretendant to be stugging at

the jubalee harp from a second existed lishener, Fiery Farrelly.) It is well

known. Lokk for himself and see the old butte new. Dbln. W. K. O. O. Hear? By

the mausolime wall. Fimfim fimfim. With a grand funferall. Fumfum fumfum. 'Tis

optophone which ontophanes. List! Wheatstone's magic lyer. They will be tuggling

foriver. They will be lichening for allof. They will be pretumbling forover. The

harpsdischord shall be theirs for ollaves.

Four things therefore, saith our herodotary Mammon Lujius in his grand old

historiorum, wrote near Boriorum, bluest book in baile's annals, f t. in

Dyffinarsky ne'er sall fail til heathersmoke and cloudweed Eire's ile sall pall.

And here now they are,the fear of um. T. Totities! Unum. (Adar.) A bulbenboss

surmounted upon an alderman. Ay, ay! Duum. (Nizam.) A shoe on a puir old wobban.

Ah, ho! Triom. (Tamuz.) An auburn mayde, o'brine a'bride, to be desarted. Adear,

adear! Quodlibus. (Marchessvan.) A penn no weightier nor a polepost. And so. And

all. (Succoth.)

So, how idlers' wind turning pages on pages, as innocens with anaclete play

popeye antipop, the leaves of the living in the boke of the deeds, annals of

themselves timing the cycles of events grand and national, bring fassilwise to

pass how.

II32 A.D. Men like to ants or emmets wondern upon a groot hwide Whallfisk which

lay in a Runnel. Blubby wares upat Ublanium.

566 A.D. On Baalfire's night of this year after deluge a crone that hadde a

wickered Kish for to hale dead tunes from the bog lookit under the blay of her

Kish as she ran for to sothisfeige her cowrieosity and be me sawl but she found

hersell sackvulle of swart goody quickenshoon ant small illigant brogues, so

rich in sweat. Blurry works at Hurdlesford.

(Silent.)

566 A.D. At this time it fell out that a brazenlockt damsel grieved

(sobralasolas!) because that Puppette her minion was ravisht-of her by the ogre

Puropeus Pious. Bloody wars in Ballyaughacleeaghbally.

II32. A.D. Two sons at an hour were born until a goodman and his hag. These sons

called themselves Caddy and Primas. Primas was a santryman and drilled all

decent people. Caddy went to Winehouse and wrote o peace a farce. Blotty words

for Dublin.

Somewhere, parently, in the ginnandgo gap between antediluvious and annadominant

the copyist must have fled with his scroll. The billy flood rose or an elk

charged him or the sultrup worldwright from the excelsissimost empyrean (bolt,

in sum) earthspake or the Dannamen gallous banged pan the bliddy duran. A

scribicide then and there is led off under old's code with some fine covered by

six marks or ninepins in metalmen for the sake of his labour's dross while it

will be only now and again in our rear of o'er era, as an upshoot of military

and civil engagements, that a gynecure was let on to the scuffold for taking

that same fine sum covertly by meddlement with the drawers of his neighbour's

safe.

Now after all that farfatch'd and peragrine or dingnant or clere lift we our

ears, eyes of the darkness, from the tome of Liber Lividus and, (toh!), how

paisibly eirenical, all dimmering dunes and gloamering glades, selfstretches

afore us our fredeland's plain! Lean neath stone pine the pastor lies with his

crook; young pricket by pricket's sister nibbleth on returned viridities; amaid

her rocking grasses the herb trinity shams lowliness; skyup is of evergrey.

Thus, too, for donkey's years. Since the bouts of Hebear and Hairyman the

cornflowers have been staying at Ballymun, the duskrose has choosed out

Goatstown's hedges, twolips have pressed togatherthem by sweet Rush, townland of

twinedlights, the whitethorn and the redthorn have fairygeyed the mayvalleys of

Knockmaroon, and, though for rings round them, during a chiliad of

perihelygangs, the Formoreans have brittled the tooath of the Danes and the

Oxman has been pestered by the Firebugs and the Joynts have thrown up

jerrybuilding to the Kevanses and Little on the Green is childsfather to the

City (Year! Year! And laughtears!), these paxsealing buttonholes have quadrilled

across the centuries and whiff now whafft to us, fresh and made-of-all-smiles

as, on the eve of Killallwho.

The babbelers with their thangas vain have been (confusium hold them!) they were

and went; thigging thugs were and houhnhymn songtoms were and comely norgels

were and pollyfool fiansees. Menn have thawed, clerks have surssurhummed, the

blond has sought of the brune: Elsekiss thou may, mean Kerry piggy?: and the

duncledames have countered with the hellish fellows: Who ails tongue coddeau,

aspace of dumbillsilly? And they fell upong one another: and themselves they

have fallen. And still nowanights and by nights of yore do all bold floras of

the field to their shyfaun lovers say only: Cull me ere I wilt to thee!: and,

but a little later: Pluck me whilst I blush! Well may they wilt, marry, and

It was of a night, late, lang time agone, in an auldstane eld, when Adam was

delvin and his madameen spinning watersilts, when mulk mountynotty man was

everybully and the first leal ribberrobber that ever had her ainway everybuddy

to his lovesaking eyes and everybilly lived alove with everybiddy else, and Jarl

van Hoother had his burnt head high up in his lamphouse, laying cold hands on

himself. And his two little jiminies, cousins of ourn, Tristopher and Hilary,

were kickaheeling their dummy on the oil cloth flure of his homerigh, castle and

earthenhouse. And, be dermot, who come to the keep of his inn only the

nieceof-his-in-law, the prankquean. And the prankquean pulled a rosy one and

made her wit foreninst the dour. And she lit up and fireland was ablaze. And

spoke she to the dour in her petty perusienne: Mark the Wans, why do I am alook

alike a poss of porterpease? And that was how the skirtmisshes began. But the

dour handworded her grace in dootch nossow: Shut! So her grace o'malice

kidsnapped up the jiminy Tristopher and into the shandy westerness she rain,

rain, rain. And Jarl van Hoother warlessed after her with soft dovesgall: Stop

deef stop come back to my earin stop. But she swaradid to him: Unlikelihud. And

there was a brannewail that same sabboath night of falling angles somewhere in

Erio. And the prankquean went for her forty years' walk in Tourlemonde and she

washed the blessings of the lovespots off the jiminy with soap sulliver suddles

and she had her four owlers masters for to tauch him his tickles and she

convorted him to the onesure allgood and he became a luderman. So then she

started to rain and to rain and, be redtom, she was back again at Jarl van

Hoother's in a brace of samers and the jiminy with her in her pinafrond, lace at

night, at another time. And where did she come but to the bar of his bristolry.

And Jarl von Hoother had his baretholobruised heels drowned in his cellarmalt,

shaking warm hands with himself and the jimminy Hilary and the dummy in their

first infancy were below on the tearsheet, wringing and coughing, like brodar

and histher. And the prankquean nipped a paly one and lit up again and redcocks

flew flackering from the hillcombs. And she made her witter before the wicked,

saying: Mark the Twy, why do I am alook alike two poss of porterpease? And:

Shut! says the wicked, handwording her madesty. So her madesty 'a forethought'

set down a jiminy and took up a jiminy and all the lilipath ways to Woeman's

Land she rain, rain, rain. And Jarl von Hoother bleethered atter her with a loud

finegale: Stop domb stop come back with my earring stop. But the prankquean

swaradid: Am liking it. And there was a wild old grannewwail that laurency night

of starshootings somewhere in Erio. And the prankquean went for her forty years'

walk in Turnlemeem and she punched the curses of cromcruwell with the nail of a

top into the jiminy and she had her four larksical monitrix to touch him his

tears and she provorted him to the onecertain allsecure and he became a

tristian. So then she started raining, raining, and in a pair of changers, be

dom ter, she was back again at Jarl von Hoother's and the Larryhill with her

under her abromette. And why would she halt at all if not by the ward of his

mansionhome of another nice lace for the third charm? And Jarl von Hoother had

his hurricane hips up to his pantrybox, ruminating in his holdfour stomachs

(Dare! O dare!), ant the jiminy Toughertrees and the dummy were belove on the

watercloth, kissing and spitting, and roguing and poghuing, like knavepaltry and

naivebride and in their second infancy. And the prankquean picked a blank and

lit out and the valleys lay twinkling. And she made her wittest in front of the

arkway of trihump, asking: Mark the Tris, why do I am alook alike three poss of

porter pease? But that was how the skirtmishes endupped. For like the campbells

acoming with a fork lance of-lightning, Jarl von Hoother Boanerges himself, the

old terror of the dames, came hip hop handihap out through the pikeopened arkway

of his three shuttoned castles, in his broadginger hat and his civic chollar and

his allabuff hemmed and his bullbraggin soxangloves and his ladbroke breeks and

his cattegut bandolair and his fur framed panuncular cumbottes like a rudd

yellan gruebleen orangeman in his violet indigonation, to the whole longth of

the strongth of his bowman's bill. And he clopped his rude hand to his eacy

hitch and he ordurd and his thick spch spck for her to shut up shop, dappy. And

the duppy shot the shutter clup

And they all drank free. For one man in his armour was a fat match always for

any girls under shurts. And that was the first peace of illiterative porthery in

all the flamend floody flatuous world. How kirssy the tiler made a sweet unclose

to the Narwhealian captol. Saw fore shalt thou sea. Betoun ye and be. The

prankquean was to hold her dummyship and the jimminies was to keep the peacewave

and van Hoother was to git the wind up. Thus the hearsomeness of the burger

felicitates the whole of the polis.

O foenix culprit! Ex nickylow malo comes mickelmassed bonum. Hill, rill, ones in

Landloughed by his neaghboormistress and perpetrified in his offsprung, sabes

and suckers, the moaning pipers could tell him to his faceback, the louthly one

whose loab we are devorers of, how butt for his hold halibutt, or her to her

He dug in and dug out by the skill of his tilth for himself and all belonging to

him and he sweated his crew beneath his auspice for the living and he urned his

dread, that dragon volant, and he made louse for us and delivered us to boll

weevils amain, that mighty liberator, Unfru-Chikda-Uru-Wukru and begad he did,

our ancestor most worshipful, till he thought of a better one in his windower's

Now be aisy, good Mr Finnimore, sir. And take your laysure like a god on pension

and don't be walking abroad. Sure you'd only lose yourself in Healiopolis now

the way your roads in Kapelavaster are that winding there after the calvary, the

North Umbrian and the Fivs Barrow and Waddlings Raid and the Bower Moore and wet

your feet maybe with the foggy dew's abroad. Meeting some sick old bankrupt or

the Cottericks' donkey with his shoe hanging, clankatachankata, or a slut

snoring with an impure infant on a bench. 'Twould turn you against life, so

'twould. And the weather's that mean too. To part from Devlin is hard as Nugent

knew, to leave the clean tanglesome one lushier than its neighbour

enfranchisable fields but let your ghost have no grievance. You're better off,

sir, where you are, primesigned in the full of your dress, bloodeagle waistcoat

and all, remembering your shapes and sizes on the pillow of your babycurls under

your sycamore by the keld water where the Tory's clay will scare the varmints

and have all you want, pouch, gloves, flask, bricket, kerchief, ring and

amberulla, the whole treasure of the pyre, in the land of souls with Homin and

Broin Baroke and pole ole Lonan and Nobucketnozzler and the Guinnghis Khan. And

we'll be coming here, the ombre players, to rake your gravel and bringing you

presents, won't we, fenians? And il isn't our spittle we'll stint you of, is it,

druids? Not shabbty little imagettes, pennydirts and dodgemyeyes you buy in the

soottee stores. But offerings of the field. Mieliodories, that Doctor Faherty,

the madison man, taught to gooden you. Poppypap's a passport out. And honey is

the holiest thing ever was, hive, comb and earwax, the food for glory, (mind you

keep the pot or your nectar cup may yield too light !) and some goat's milk,

sir, like the maid used to bring you. Your fame is spreading like Basilico's

ointment since the Fintan Lalors piped you overborder and there's whole

households beyond the Bothnians and they calling names after you. The menhere's

always talking of you sitting around on the pig's cheeks under the sacred

rooftree, over the bowls of memory where every hollow holds a hallow, with a

pledge till the drengs, in the Salmon House. And admiring to our supershillelagh

where the palmsweat on high is the mark of your manument. All the toethpicks

ever Eirenesians chewed on are chips chepped from that battery block. If you

were bowed and soild and letdown itself from the oner of the load it was that

paddyplanters might pack up plenty and when you were undone in every point fore

the laps of goddesses you showed our labourlasses how to free was easy. The game

old Gunne, they do be saying, (skull !) that was a planter for you, a spicer of

finding the sores of his sedeq but peace to his great limbs, the buddhoch, with

the last league long rest of him, while the millioncandled eye of Tuskar sweeps

the Moylean Main ! There was never a warlord in Great Erinnes and Brettland, no,

nor in all Pike County like you, they say. No, nor a king nor an ardking, bung

king, sung king or hung king. That you could fell an elmstree twelve urchins

couldn't ring round and hoist high the stone that Liam failed. Who but a

Maccullaghmore the reise of our fortunes and the faunayman at the funeral to

compass our cause? If you was hogglebully itself and most frifty like you was

taken waters still what all where was your like to lay the cable or who was the

batter could better Your Grace? Mick Mac Magnus MacCawley can take you off to

the pure perfection and Leatherbags Reynolds tries your shuffle and cut. But as

Hopkins and Hopkins puts it, you were the pale eggynaggy and a kis to tilly up.

We calls him the journeyall Buggaloffs since he went Jerusalemfaring in Arssia

Manor. You had a gamier cock than Pete, Jake or Martin and your archgoose of

scalding tayboil, Papa Vestray, come never anear you as your hair grows wheater

beside the Liffey that's in Heaven! Hep, hep, hurrah there! Hero! Seven times

thereto we salute you! The whole bag of kits, falconplumes and jackboots

incloted, is where you flung them that time. Your heart is in the system of the

Shewolf and your crested head is in the tropic of Copricapron. Your feet are in

the cloister of Virgo. Your olala is in the region of sahuls. And that's ashore

as you were born. Your shuck tick's swell. And that there texas is tow linen.

The loamsome roam to Laffayette is ended. Drop in your tracks, babe! Be not

unrested ! The headboddylwatcher of the chempel of Isid, Totumcalmum, saith: I

know thee, metherjar, I know thee, salvation boat. For we have performed upon

thee, thou abramanation, who comest ever without being invoked, whose coming is

unknown, all the things which the company of the precentors and of the

grammarians of Christpatrick's ordered concerning thee in the matter of the work

of thy tombing. Howe of the shipmen, steep wall!

Everything's going on the same or so it appeals to all of us, in the old

The horn for breakfast, one o'gong for lunch and dinnerchime. As popular as when

Belly the First was keng and his members met in the Diet of Man. The same shop

slop in the window. Jacob's lettercrackers and Dr Tipple's Vi-Cocoa and the

Eswuards' desippated soup beside Mother Seagull's syrup. Meat took a drop when

Reilly-Parsons failed. Coal's short but we've plenty of bog in the yard. And

barley's up again, begrained to it. The lads is attending school nessans

regular, sir, spelling beesknees with hathatansy and turning out tables by

Glassarse or Timmy the Tosser. 'Tisraely the truth! No isn't it, roman

pathoricks? You were the doublejoynted janitor the morning they were delivered

laus sake, the devil does be in that knirps of a Jerry sometimes, the tarandtan

plaidboy, making encostive inkum out of the last of his lavings and writing a

blue streak over his bourseday shirt. Hetty Jane's a child of Mary. She'll be

coming (for they're sure to choose her) in her white of gold with a tourch of

ivy to rekindle the flame on Felix Day. But Essie Shanahan has let down her

skirts. You remember Essie in our Luna's Convent? They called her Holly Merry

her lips were so ruddyberry and Pia de Purebelle when the redminers riots was on

about her. Were I a clerk designate to the Williamswoodsmenufactors I'd poster

those pouters on every jamb in the town. She's making her rep at Lanner's

twicenightly. With the tabarine tamtammers of the whirligigmagees. Beats that

cachucha flat. 'Twould dilate your heart to go.

Aisy now, you decent man, with your knees and lie quiet and repose your honour's

again, sir, for you. Did or didn't we, sharestutterers? So you won't be up a

winter to fire the enchantement, decoying more nesters to fall down the flue.

It's allavalonche that blows nopussy food. If you only were there to explain the

meaning, best of men, and talk to her nice of guldenselver. The lips would

moisten once again. As when you drove with her to Findrinny Fair. What with

reins here and ribbons there all your hands were employed so she never knew was

she on land or at sea or swooped through the blue like Airwinger's bride. She

was flirtsome then and she's fluttersome yet. She can second a song and adores a

scandal when the last post's gone by. Fond of a concertina and pairs passing

when she's had her forty winks for supper after kanekannan and abbely dimpling

and is in her merlin chair assotted, reading her Evening World. To see is it

smarts, full lengths or swaggers. News, news, all the news. Death, a leopard,

kills fellah in Fez. Angry scenes at Stormount. Stilla Star with her lucky in

goingaways. Opportunity fair with the China floods and we hear these rosy

rumours. Ding Tams he noise about all same Harry chap. She's seeking her way, a

chickle a chuckle, in and out of their serial story, Les Loves of Selskar et

Pervenche, freely adapted to The Novvergin's Viv. There'll be bluebells blowing

in salty sepulchres the night she signs her final tear. Zee End. But that's a

world of ways away. Till track laws time. No silver ash or switches for that

one! While flattering candles flare. Anna Stacey's how are you! Worther waist in

the noblest, says Adams and Sons, the wouldpay actionneers. Her hair's as brown

as ever it was. And wivvy and wavy. Repose you now! Finn no more!

For, be that samesake sibsubstitute of a hooky salmon, there's already a big

rody ram lad at random on the premises of his haunt of the hungred bordles, as

it is told me. Shop Illicit, flourishing like a lordmajor or a buaboabaybohm,

litting flop a deadlop (aloose!) to lee but lifting a bennbranch a yardalong

(Ivoeh!) the breezy side (for showm!), the height of Brewster's chimpney and as

broad below as Phineas Barnum; humphing his share of the showthers is senken on

him he's such a grandfallar, with a pocked wife in pickle that's a flyfire and

three lice nittle clinkers, two twilling bugs and one midgit pucelle. And aither

he cursed and recursed and was everseen doing what your fourfootlers saw or he

was never done seeing what you coolpigeons know, weep the clouds aboon for

smiledown witnesses, and that'll do now about the fairyhees and the frailyshees.

Though Eset fibble it to the zephiroth and Artsa zoom it round her heavens for

ever. Creator he has created for his creatured ones a creation. White monothoid?

Red theatrocrat? And all the pinkprophets cohalething? Very much so! But however

'twas 'tis sure for one thing, what sherif Toragh voucherfors and Mapqiq makes

put out, that the man, Humme the Cheapner, Esc, overseen as we thought him, yet

a worthy of the naym, came at this timecoloured place where we live in our

paroqial fermament one tide on another, with a bumrush in a hull of a wherry,

the twin turbane dhow, The Bey for Dybbling, this archipelago's first visiting

schooner, with a wicklowpattern waxenwench at her prow for a figurehead, the

deadsea dugong updipdripping from his depths, and has been repreaching himself

like a fishmummer these siktyten years ever since, his shebi by his shide, adi

and aid, growing hoarish under his turban and changing cane sugar into sethulose

starch (Tuttut's cess to him!) as also that, batin the bulkihood he bloats about

when innebbiated, our old offender was humile, commune and ensectuous from his

nature, which you may gauge after the bynames was put under him, in lashons of

languages, (honnein suit and praisers be!) and, totalisating him, even hamissim

of himashim that he, sober serious, he is ee and no counter he who will be

ultimendly respunchable for the hubbub caused in Edenborough.
