MURTAGH COSGAR You're a queer fellow, Martin Douras. You went to gaol for some meeting.
MARTIN DOURAS
Ay.
MURTAGH COSGAR Them was the stirring times. I can't help but think of you in gaol, and by yourself. What brings you back now?
MARTIN DOURAS
Ellen told me to go back. I should say something to
Matt, I think.
MURTAGH COSGAR
He went out as you came in.
MARTIN DOURAS I'll go in when the house is quiet. I'll have a few prayers to be saying this night.
MURTAGH COSGAR
I'm going to the fair.
MARTIN DOURAS
I won't be going to the fair.
MURTAGH COSGAR Why won't you be going to the fair? Didn't you ask me for a lift? You'll be going with me.
MARTIN DOURAS
I won't be going, and don't be overbearing me now,
Murtagh Cosgar.
