a dead person before, did you?Copy !req
390. I did, on the news.Copy !req
391. You probably did, God help you.Copy !req
392. But it's a different thing
having them there in front of you.Copy !req
393. Don't be afraid.Copy !req
394. He's praying.Copy !req
395. We have to say a prayer for him too.Copy !req

445. but we went into town
and bought new ones.Copy !req

450. Well, I suppose, after wearing
the dead's clothes for the past month.Copy !req
451. You didn't know?Copy !req
452. About what?Copy !req
453. The Kinsellas' boy, you dope.Copy !req
454. It must have been some
head of cabbage they found you under.Copy !req
455. What happened to him?Copy !req
456. Didn't he follow the dog
into the slurry pit...Copy !req
457. and didn't he drown, the poor boy.Copy !req
458. That's what they say anyway.Copy !req
459. They say Sean got the gunCopy !req
460. and took the dog
down the field to kill it...Copy !req
461. but he hadn't the heart
to shoot it, the soft-hearted fool.Copy !req
462. Do you know poor Eibhlin's hair
turned white overnight afterwards?Copy !req
463. - But her hair is brown.
- Brown?Copy !req
464. Out of the dye-pot, you can be sure!Copy !req
465. There weren't many there.Copy !req
466. A mound of sandwiches still
on the table when I was leaving.Copy !req
467. They had raisin sconesCopy !req
468. and some sort
of an attempt at a trifle.Copy !req
469. And poor Gearoid
lying crooked in the coffinCopy !req
470. without a proper shave even.Copy !req
471. Shameful!Copy !req
472. And plastic rosary beads in his hands,Copy !req
473. the poor wretch.Copy !req
474. Shut your traps in there!Copy !req
475. I'm trying to talk to your granny!Copy !req
476. - Hello all.
- Sean, you were quick.Copy !req
477. We're only in the door.
Aren't we, girl?Copy !req
478. Thank you, Una.
It was good of you to take her home.Copy !req
479. A quiet girl, this one.Copy !req
480. She says as much as she needs to say.Copy !req
481. May there be many like her.Copy !req
482. Are you ready, pet?Copy !req
483. Were you okay in there?Copy !req
484. Yes.Copy !req
485. Did she ask you any questions?Copy !req
486. A few things, not much.Copy !req
487. What did she ask you?Copy !req
488. She asked me if you used
butter or margarine in your pastry.Copy !req
489. Did she ask you anything else?Copy !req
490. What did she tell you?Copy !req
491. Girl.Copy !req
492. She told me that you had a little boy,Copy !req
493. who followed the dog
into the slurry pit...Copy !req
494. and died.Copy !req
495. And that I was wearing his clothes
for the past month.Copy !req
496. We'll go out.Copy !req
497. Someone's horse is missing tonight.Copy !req
498. It's a stable door.Copy !req
499. Do you know, fishermen sometimes
find horses out at sea?Copy !req
500. I know a man,
who towed a colt in one time.Copy !req
501. And the horse lay on the strandCopy !req
502. for a long, long timeCopy !req
503. like he was fit to die.Copy !req
504. Until he suddenly stood up, revived.Copy !req
505. He was okay?Copy !req
506. Good as new.Copy !req
507. Perfect.Copy !req
508. Strange things happen sometimes,
don't they?Copy !req
509. Something strange
happened to you tonight.Copy !req
510. But Eibhlin didn't mean any harm.Copy !req
511. She wants to find
the good in other people...Copy !req
512. hoping she won't be disappointed...Copy !req
513. but sometimes she is.Copy !req
514. You don't have to say anything.Copy !req
515. Always remember that.Copy !req
516. Many's the person
missed the opportunity to say nothing...Copy !req
517. and lost much because of it.Copy !req
518. Cait?Copy !req
519. Look!Copy !req
520. There are three lights now.Copy !req
521. " 'Heidi,' she answeredCopy !req
522. "in a clear, ringing voice.Copy !req
523. " 'That's no Ch...' "Copy !req
524. Christian.Copy !req
525. " '... Christian...' "Copy !req
526. Keep your finger under the words.Copy !req
527. " '... Christian name for a child.' "Copy !req
528. I'm coming!Copy !req
529. I'm going to win!Copy !req
530. And now open!Copy !req
531. After extensive renovation,
broad department store "Don Garben"Copy !req
532. is back in business!Copy !req
533. Except all for your home needs,Copy !req
534. we're also the one-stop shop
for the latest fabrics and fashions.Copy !req
535. And with Back-to-School Time
just around the corner,Copy !req
536. we've got you covered
for school uniforms,Copy !req
537. lunch boxes, copybooks,
mathematical setsCopy !req
538. and a wide range of pencil cases
and colouring pencils!Copy !req
539. Professional service and easy marking.Copy !req
540. Look no further, dear housewives—Copy !req
541. Ten seconds faster
than the first time you did that.Copy !req
542. Like a gust of wind you are, girl.Copy !req
543. Now, do you think there's
any money in any of these?Copy !req
544. I don't know.Copy !req
545. A wedding invite maybe.Copy !req
546. Will you marry someday, do you think?Copy !req
547. Mam says
men aren't worth bothering with.Copy !req
548. Maybe she's right.Copy !req
549. That being said,
we're not all the same.Copy !req
550. But this is certain: whatever fella's
to catch you, he'll have to be fast.Copy !req
551. My mam?Copy !req
552. It's addressed to Eibhlin.Copy !req
553. Well, you have a new brother.Copy !req
554. Eight pounds, six ounces.Copy !req
555. - Great.
- Don't be like that.Copy !req
556. And school is starting again on Monday.Copy !req
557. Your mam wants us to bring you home,Copy !req
558. so she can get you ready.Copy !req
559. I have to go back, then?Copy !req
560. Yes.Copy !req
561. But you knew that, didn't you?Copy !req
562. You couldn't stay here
with old fogies like us, could you?Copy !req
563. Come here, child.Copy !req
564. I have not being in a hurry.Copy !req
565. This quilt has taken some years.Copy !req
566. - It'll be alright, love.
- It is already promised to a daughter.Copy !req
567. And I hope will become
a family heirloom.Copy !req
568. - You'll have a glass of orange, pet?
- Please.Copy !req
569. The water is low.Copy !req
570. I'll have to go down to the well
when you're gone.Copy !req
571. - Where's himself?
- He's milking the cows below.Copy !req
572. - What hurry is on himself?
- He needs help pulling a calf.Copy !req
573. Do you mind finishing down below?
I have the herd out.Copy !req
574. - Of course.
- I'll be back as soon as I can.Copy !req
575. Go.Copy !req
576. I won't be long, dear.Copy !req
577. Cait?Copy !req
578. Oh, Christ!Copy !req
579. Oh, my love!Copy !req
580. You're frozen.Copy !req
581. What will we say to her mother?Copy !req
582. We won't say a word to her mother.Copy !req
583. It's just a little cold she has.Copy !req
584. She's expecting her at home.Copy !req
585. What harm if we hang on to her
for another day or two?Copy !req
586. When I think of
what could have happened.Copy !req
587. If you've said that once,
you've said it a hundred times!Copy !req
588. - But...!
- But nothing happened, she's fine.Copy !req
589. We'll bring her home at the weekend
and that's the end of it.Copy !req
590. I don't know if I had
those potatoes boiled right at all.Copy !req
591. I wouldn't find any fault with them.Copy !req
592. That's where Dad lost our red heifer
in a game of cards.Copy !req
593. You don't say?Copy !req
594. Wasn't that some wager?Copy !req
595. Mam didn't speak to him
for a month afterwards.Copy !req
596. You've grown.Copy !req
597. I have.Copy !req
598. Now, watch that.Copy !req
599. Eibhlin.Copy !req
600. - Sean.
- Maire, my love.Copy !req
601. - How are you?
- It's a long time since I saw you.Copy !req
602. Come in and have a seat
if you can find a chair.Copy !req
603. - You'll have a cup of tea?
- We will.Copy !req
604. I brought some jam. Don't let
me leave without giving it to you.Copy !req
605. I made this from the rhubarb
you sent down to me.Copy !req
606. That's the last of it.Copy !req
607. I should have brought
more rhubarb with me, I wasn't thinking.Copy !req
608. Where's the new baby?Copy !req
609. He's up in the room.
You'll hear him soon enough.Copy !req
610. How is he sleeping?Copy !req
611. He could crow at any hour.Copy !req
612. You never know.Copy !req
613. Speak of the angels
and you'll hear their wings.Copy !req
614. Hello, girls.Copy !req
615. He's sturdy, isn't he?Copy !req
616. He's a pet!Copy !req
617. No sign of himself?Copy !req
618. He went out earlier.Copy !req
619. Wherever he's gone.Copy !req
620. Speak of the angels.Copy !req
621. - Evening, all.

624. I did.Copy !req
625. - Did she give you any trouble?
- Trouble?Copy !req
626. Good as gold, she was, the same girl.Copy !req
627. Is that so?Copy !req
628. Well, isn't that a relief?Copy !req
629. You'll want to sit in
and have your supper.Copy !req
630. I had liquid supper.Copy !req
631. Any news from home?Copy !req
632. Not much.Copy !req
633. All quiet really.Copy !req
634. - Have you caught a cold?
- No.Copy !req
635. You haven't?Copy !req
636. Nothing happened.Copy !req
637. What does that mean?Copy !req
638. I haven't caught a cold.Copy !req
639. The poor girl was in bed
for a few days.Copy !req
640. Didn't she catch herself a wee chill.Copy !req
641. Aye.Copy !req
642. She couldn't mind them.Copy !req
643. You know yourself.Copy !req
644. Dan.Copy !req
645. You know, I think it's getting to
us time that we were making tracks.Copy !req
646. It's a long road.Copy !req
647. - What hurry is on you?
- No hurry, the usual.Copy !req
648. The cows don't give you any let up.Copy !req
649. Jesus!Copy !req
650. That's a right dose
you came home with, huh?Copy !req
651. It's nothing she hasn't caught beforeCopy !req
652. and won't catch again.Copy !req
653. Sure, isn't it going around?Copy !req
654. Are you ready for home?Copy !req
655. Are you sure everything is okay?Copy !req
656. Yes.Copy !req
657. These are nice and floury.
"British Queen" type.Copy !req
658. There was no need, Sean.Copy !req
659. It was a nice thing you did,
minding her.Copy !req
660. Thank you, both.Copy !req
661. She was welcome,
and is welcome again any time.Copy !req
