Taig: There does be much people travelling to this place?
Darby: I suppose there might, and it being the high road from the town of Ennis.
Taig: It should be in this town you follow your trade?
Darby: It is not in the towns I do be.
Taig: There's nothing but the towns, since the farmers in the country clear out their own chimneys with a bush under and a bush overhead.
Darby: I travel only gentlemen's houses.
Taig: There does be more of company in the streets than you'd find on the bare road.
Darby: It isn't easy get company for a person has but two empty hands.
Taig: Wealth to be in the family it is all one nearly with having a grip of it in your own palm.
Darby: I wish to the Lord it was the one thing.
