MUSKERRY
I'll consider it.
GORMAN
Good night to your honour. Remember my name, Master—Gorman,
Myles Gorman.
Muskerry stands looking after Gorman.
MUSKERRY Now, Christy Clarke, I consider that the man gone out is a very exceptional man.
CHRISTY
Is it Myles Gorman?
MUSKERRY
Yes. I'd even say that, considering his station in life,
Myles Gorman is a very superior man.
CHRISTY
They say he's not a good musician.
MUSKERRY And maybe he's not. I consider, however, that there's great intelligence in his face. He stands before you, and you feel that he has the life of a young colt, and then you're bound to think that, in spite of the fact that he's blind and a wanderer, the man has not wasted his life. (Muskerry settles himself in the armchair)
CHRISTY
Will you give leave for to-morrow?
MUSKERRY
No, Christy, I will not.
