God save you, Molly Byrne. (MOLLY BYRNE: indifferently. — God save you.) That’s a dark, gloomy day, and the Lord have mercy on us all. (MOLLY BYRNE: Middling dark.) It’s a power of dirty days, and dark mornings, and shabby-looking fellows (he makes a gesture over his shoulder) we do have to be looking on when we have our sight, God help us, but there’s one fine thing we have, to be looking on a grand, white, handsome girl, the like of you.... and every time I set my eyes on you I do be blessing the saints, and the holy water, and the power of the Lord Almighty in the heavens above.
