FATHER DEMPSEY. That's a good lad [going].
PATSY [to Aunt Judy] Fadher Keegan sez—
FATHER DEMPSEY [turning sharply on him]. What's that you say?
PATSY [frightened]. Fadher Keegan—
FATHER DEMPSEY. How often have you heard me bid you call Mister Keegan in his proper name, the same as I do? Father Keegan indeed! Can't you tell the difference between your priest and any ole madman in a black coat?
PATSY. Sure I'm afraid he might put a spell on me.
FATHER DEMPSEY [wrathfully]. You mind what I tell you or I'll put a spell on you that'll make you lep. D'ye mind that now? [He goes home].
Patsy goes down the hill to retrieve the fish, the bird, and the sack.
AUNT JUDY. Ah, hwy can't you hold your tongue, Patsy, before Father Dempsey?
PATSY. Well, what was I to do? Father Keegan bid me tell you Miss Nora was gone to the Roun Tower.
