CHAPTER XXVII
7/12

"It's what I'll do," says I."And now, wishing you happy dreams, I'll take my lave." Just so, Molly, it's hand and glove we are.

A pleasant face, agreeable manners seasoned with natural modesty, and a good pair of legs, them's the gifts to push a man's way in the world.

And even with the ladies--but sure I am forgetting, my master was proposed for, and your humble servant too, by two illigant creatures in Lisbon; but it wouldn't do, Molly, it's higher nor that we'll be looking,--_rale_ princesses, the devil a less.

Tell Kitty Hannigan I hope she's well; she was a disarving young in her situation in life.

Shusey Dogherty, at the cross road-- I don't forget the name--was a good-looking slip too; give her my affectionate salutations, as we say in the Portuguese.
