All: The poor thing!
Nestor: And her master stuck it on again with glue. That now was a very foolish thing to do. What use would a finger be stuck with glue that might melt off at any time, and she to be stirring the pot?
Sibby: That is true indeed.
Nestor: Now, if I myself had been there, it is what I would have advised....
Sibby: That’s what I was saying, Mr. Nestor. It is you are the grand adviser. What now will you say to poor Mrs. Broderick that has a summons out against her this day for up to ten pounds?
Nestor: It is what I am often saying, it is a very foolish thing to be getting into debt.
Mrs. Broderick: Sure what way could I help it? It’s a very done-up town to be striving to make a living in.
Nestor: It would be a right thing to be showing a good example.
Mrs. Broderick: They would want that indeed. There are more die with debts on them in this place than die free from debt.
Nestor: Many a poor soul has had to suffer from the weight of the debts on him, finding no rest or peace after death.
