You're a great woman, said he,
gpt
I'm everything you like to call me,
human
Which of the men are you with this time, or are you travelling with the pair of them?
gpt
I don't want either of them, Padraig, but I can't get away from them anyhow. They won't let me go my own road, and they're marching at my elbows for two days and two nights, cursing and kicking and making a noise every step of the way.
human
They're doing that!
gpt
They are doing that, Padraig. It's O'Brien is the worst, for the other fellow is only helping him and doesn't care for me at all. Catching me they do be, and holding me....
human
Aye!
gpt
I can't get away from O'Brien, said she,
human
You were looking for me?
gpt
I was looking for you this time, Padraig.
human
Aye!
gpt
You'll be left alone from this day out,
human
Mind yourself! growled Brien O'Brien.
gpt
Mind yourself, my hardy man, or you'll waken up among the spooks.
human
Spooks!
