McCarthy's mare, in extended order, a tree's length from the | 2 |
longest way out, down the switchbackward slidder of the land- | 3 |
sown route of Hauburnea's liveliest vinnage on the brain, the | 4 |
unimportant Parthalonians with the mouldy Firbolgs and the | 5 |
Tuatha de Danaan googs and the ramblers from Clane and all | 6 |
the rest of the notmuchers that he did not care the royal spit out | 7 |
of his ostensible mouth about, well, what do you think he did, | 8 |
sir, but, faix, he just went heeltapping through the winespilth | 9 |
and weevily popcorks that were kneedeep round his own right | 10 |
royal round rollicking toper's table, with his old Roderick Ran- | 11 |
dom pullon hat at a Lanty Leary cant on him and Mike Brady's | 12 |
shirt and Greene's linnet collarbow and his Ghenter's gaunts and | 13 |
his Macclefield's swash and his readymade Reillys and his pan- | 14 |
prestuberian poncho, the body you'd pity him, the way the world | 15 |
is, poor he, the heart of Midleinster and the supereminent lord of | 16 |
them all, overwhelmed as he was with black ruin like a sponge | 17 |
out of water, allocutioning in bellcantos to his own oliverian | 18 |
society MacGuiney's Dreans of Ergen Adams and thruming | 19 |

lazy lousers of maltknights and beerchurls in the different bot- | 33 |
