Cooney: It is to keep it unknownst you are wanting!
Nestor: The way she would not suspect....
Cooney: It is I myself suspect and have cause to suspect! Give me back my own ten pounds and I’ll be satisfied.
Nestor: What way can I give it back?
Cooney: The same way as you took it, in the palm of your hand.
Nestor: Sure it is paid away and spent....
Cooney: If it is you’ll repay it! I know as well as if I was inside you you are striving to make me your prey! But I’ll sober you! It is into the Court I will drag you, and as far as the gaol!
Nestor: I tell you I gave it to the widow woman....
(Mrs. Broderick comes in.)
Cooney: Let her say now did you.
