day ; and

assuredly

you, I am

glad now that

we are

here

with each other

—

you

who

have

high

estate,

and

reputation throughout

the

globe ;

and I

who am here

country,

without

with-

out notoriety.

Oh, I

implore

of you

do not

commence

so soon to praise

; or

should

rather

say,

quizzing me.

7. Certainly

I am not

quizzing

you ;

but

am telling the

truth. I know that you are

veryjiumble,

and I

shall not

speak another

word

in your

praise.

As I

said, it is

long-

since we were with each

other

going to

school,

when

were in your grandfather's,

God's

blessing be

with his

soul.

Have you

not

travelled

much of

the world

since

then?

8. I

liav«;, I have much to tell of

everything

which

heard,

and every thing

saw, if I had

opportunity to

spend

while

with

you. But I

will hasre an

opportunity at another

special time. 9.

Do you

recollect

when I

and you on

certain day were

walking

ou^t

ii'om

the

town of

Cork,

and

you said that you would like to

swim,

and

when we Avere

in the water, there came

large wave,

which

brought,

you with it, and

you

went

along with the

stream, until

you

alighted on a

rock ;

then I

swam after

you, and brought you to

shore

half alive as

you were?

10.

is true that

recollect well that

day, and I

shall

have a ^recollection

of it for ever ;

it is for

that reason

have (entertain) affection and great

esteem

always

for

you,

thankful

for

all

you did

for me. 1 1 .

Were

there not other

young men with us that

day?

12.

There were

certainly;

Lut neither of them wished to go

against

the

angry billows,

13. It

Avas

well they

acted

so.

Since

you

have

com-

menced to speak of

them, who were the

young men who

were along with us on that

day? 14.

There were Andrew

Fitzpatrick, George

Williamson, and Thomas

MacDonnell,

three

who knew how

swim extremely

well.

15. Are

they

all

alive yet?

Ifi. They are not

all; two

them

(got

death) died; but Thomas

MacDonnell is yet

alive;

and

he is not only a good

man, but a

highly learned doc-

tor,

and

renowned sage. 17.

I am Avell pleased

at that;

is: it

long since you

heard from him? 18.

Oh, it is

A DIALOGUE

BETWEEN

TWO

STUDENTS.

Alexander,

have

you been

at school

to-day?

have

been

;

do not wish

to be

a day at all

from

school.

It is not right

for any

young

man,

such as

you

are,

be a

day

from school, whilst

it is

in his

power

be at it

(to attend).

4. I trust

you

are

reading

the high

sciences?

Well, I

am not (reading),

but

those only

that are

ordi-

nary, such

as M-riting

and

reading,

a knowledge

the

globe and

grammar,

and

things

of that

kind,

along

with

the languages

—

English,

Greek,

French

and Latin.

You

have

knowledge,

have

you not,

of the

principal

parts

each language

diese

—

that

is, you

know their

divi-

sion

and

their

explanations

? 7. I

have : for it

is easy

know these.

There

are

nine

divisions

language

;

and

these are

two

parts,

the

noun

and the verb, like

woof

and

warp,

framing

every

discourse

together, and

there is

not

the other

parts,

but

as it

were, colour and

8. How

could

you know a

7ioun?

It is

easy

for

person

know it

;

for the

7iame

of every

thing

that is created,

which

we can form a notion (it)

a noun;

for example,

the names of men and women, as

Achille's, Augustine,

Alexander, ^neas, or Kevin, Cormac, Edmund,. Amilia,

Angelica,

Barbara, Blathny, or Kate

;

or again the

names that appertain to men or to

women, in relation

their

duty or

in relation

their state,—such as father, mother,

sister and brother,

porter,

poet,

monk

;

the names of brutes

—

horse, mare,

filly,

bull

;

in one word,

the name

ofeverything

created, or

of which we can form

notion (it) is

a noun. 10.

How many genders in it (are there)

? 11.

There are only

two genders, that is, the

masculine

and

feminine

: and

since

from nature there are only two sexes (amongfet) mankind,

male and female,

in like manner,

nouns have

only

two

genders, masculine and feminine; 12. Oh,

know

well

that there are

only

two genders when we

speak

of those

names which present

our minds (ideas of

)

things living

;

but when we

treat of the names of things

that

are not living,

in what manner

will

we have

knowledge

of the

gender

the noun,

when the object is devoid of sex

to-day. 14. At a

certain

time to

come, you and I shall be

together, and

shall

conversation

on this subject.

15. Let it be so.

16. But

stay: you have

not told me

word of

the

manner

which a

young

man can

obtain

readily a knowledge

(of the grammatical meaning) of

every

word that occurs to

him in discourse. 17. Withal we shall

have an opportunity

for

that

on another occasion

1. God

save you, James, clear

friend

of my

heart!

May

God and (the

blessed)

Mary save you,

Peter,

flower

nobility

! is it not early you

are this morning

on foot?

It is early,

indeed

;

because the

morning

so fine,

and

feel inclined

to have a

walk along

with

you.

You

are

great walker certainly: there

is not a good

day at all

that

you are

not

rambling from

hill to

hill, from

glen

to glen,

from plain

plain

from

glade

glade, through

the

land.

Well,

it is true

for you:

certainly, I am

delighted,

our native land,

be out

every

time

can,

on the

summit

the mountains, on

the tops

of the

hills,

and

in the

re-

tired

recesses

of the

valleys

;

again

walking

on the

border

of lakes, or along

the

coast. 6.

not like

out

to-

day

;

I have

much

(business) to perform.

Oh,

you

said

the

other day,

and

you

promised that you would

ready

to-day,

and that

you

would

have an

opportunity

to drive

with me

through

the

country

;

for, in truth

to you,

I would

.•not

like to be

with

any

other

but yourself

—for

you are

jcquainted

Avith

every

house,

and

with every place,

with

every

cabin,

and every

chateau

(big

house)

;

with

every

glade and

every

valley,

mountain,

glen, Avell,

stream,

river,

mound,

cemetery,

churchyard

;

and

not only that,

but

you

know

the

history

everything

of which I

wish

to speak,

wliicli I should like

get

information.

I am thankful

you

for the

great

appreciation in Avhich

you

hold

me,

appreciation of which

I am

not

"worthy,

and

especially

from a

man who

possessed himself of so

much learning

you

have. I do not therefore feel

satisfied

(fi'ora

the

fact) that I

cannot

accompany

you to-day;

but

we shall

have another day.

9. Did you not promise that

you would

be prepared

to-day? 10. I

did (promise);

but

3'ou not know that I

have

much

(business)

do, and

that

cannot

have

(obtain) leisure to-day. 11. It is true

that

each

person ought to

perform the

things

that are under

his

(charge)

direction, and on that

account

I do

not wish that

you

should

do anything

that would not

right for you to

do.

12. I

see that

you have sense,

and that

you are

not

great many

young people (filled) with

an over

desire

for

every

vain pursuit. 13.

thankful

to you

;

meekly

and kindly you speak on every matter. 14. What

day

now will you be ready to come

with me?

name it.

15. Any

day

leisure

(holy-day); or the first

day of the

week,

if it

fine. 16. It is

long,

i>erhaps,

iintil we have

another

(fine)

day

like the present

—

the air

high;

the

firmament

azure ; without

cloud (cloudless)

; without a

mist;

the sun rising radiant;

the birds

warbling

every

tree

;

and

all creation

lightsome

with beauty as

on the first

day

it issued forth from

the

hand

the Lord,

17.

greatly

disposed (there is an

inclination

desire on me)

to go with

you. 18. Do

not come

; we

will

have

another

day equally as fine. 19. This is

coming

;

our

breakfast

is ready.

20.

JNIother, this is

Peter

O'Keefe, of

whom

I often

made

mention (spoke)

(with)

you;—

young

friend

for

whom

entertain great respect.

21.

welcome:

ten thousand welcomes

you.

22,

This is

beautiful

morning, madam. 23. Yes indeed;

this is

the

first

beautiful

morning we have had (for the) last

month.

24. James,

your breakfast is

ready, and your father and

sister are awaiting

your

presence

;

perhaps this

young

gen-

tleman has

not

yet breakfasted.

25.

Peter, give us the

honour of

your company

at table. 2Q. With pleasure,

in-

deed

;

but I can with

truth

say

that (it is)

me the ho-

nour

is conferred,

to be in

your

society.

27.

Please jitst

before

;

this is the

way.

; or

Henry, you are the best

of men

to be

here

so soon

you are—

where

is j^our brother? 2. He will

here

im-

mediately (on the spot,

Ai]t

b;\ll)

;

it was not possible

for

him

to come

with me when I had

been ready, because our

cousin-german Alphonsus O'Hegan was

on a

visit with

us,

and

he was obliged to stay

in order

along

with

him.

3. Oh,

I see; that

is right. 4.

What o'clock is it

now?

It is only

four o'clock. 6. It is early so,

the evening.

Just

accompany me,

and

we can have a

walk

;

sauntering

stroll arovmd here,

and

have

a conversazione

with each

other. 8. We

can so

;

and

it, for

not

wish

to be inside doors but as

short

as I

possibly can.

9. This is

the way by the

side of the house. 1

1 .

Thank

you (may

good be

to you)

;

it is easy to stumble in

crooked, slippery

road

like that yonder.

12.

What is

your

opinion of our

own

residence

and position

here, of our

land

and of our appurtenances?

13.

I am of

opinion that

your residence

is good

;

your land

very

good

;

your posi-

tion

delightful

;

and your appurtenances of the best. 14.

Which is

the better

—

your house, or our

house?

15.

Your

house

is better than our house,

16. We

are convenient to

the running

water

;

the

large town

(market-town)

;

the

sea—

things that enhance

the value of

a country-house.

17. Is this your

garden?

18.

our garden; come in

and view it, 19. What

the thing

in it?

i.e.,

what does it

contain?

20.

Much

—

there are potatoes

and

cabbages,

peas and beans, carrots,

parsnips, radishes, turnips, rasp-

berries,

strawberries, onions, rose-trees,

apple-trees,

pear-

trees, gooseberries, and

such like. 21. I perceive

that it

looks

well

just

now.

22. What is

your notion of

the man-

ner in which the

trees are, and of every

growth

(growing

plant) which

is in the garden

? 23. I

am of

opinion

that

youi"

apple-trees are too

high,

and your

raspberry
