Paddy
was
sitting
in
a
chair
,
ashen
,
his
shocked
eyes
on
Meggie
as
she
huddled
on
her
knees
by
the
fire
,
weeping
and
rocking
herself
back
and
forth
.
He
got
up
to
go
to
her
,
but
Father
Ralph
pushed
him
roughly
away
.
"
Leave
her
alone
.
You
've
done
enough
!
There
's
whiskey
in
the
sideboard
;
take
some
.
I
'm
going
to
put
the
child
to
bed
,
but
I
'll
be
back
to
talk
to
you
,
so
do
n't
go
.
Do
you
hear
me
,
man
?
"
"
I
'll
be
here
,
Father
.
Put
her
to
bed
.
"

Upstairs
in
the
charming
apple-green
bedroom
the
priest
unbuttoned
the
little
girl
's
dress
and
chemise
,
made
her
sit
on
the
edge
of
the
bed
so
he
could
pull
off
her
shoes
and
stockings
.
Her
nightdress
lay
on
the
pillow
where
Annie
had
left
it
;
he
tugged
it
over
her
head
and
decently
down
before
he
removed
her
drawers
.
And
all
the
while
he
talked
to
her
about
nothing
,
silly
stories
of
buttons
refusing
to
come
undone
,
and
shoes
stubbornly
staying
tied
,
and
ribbons
that
would
not
come
off
.
It
was
impossible
to
tell
if
she
heard
him
;
with
their
unspoken
tales
of
infant
tragedies
,
of
troubles
and
pains
beyond
her
years
,
the
eyes
stared
drearily
past
his
shoulder
.
"
Now
lie
down
,
my
darling
girl
,
and
try
to
go
to
sleep
.
I
'll
be
back
in
a
little
while
to
see
you
,
so
do
n't
worry
,
do
you
hear
?
We
'll
talk
about
it
then
.
"
"
Is
she
all
right
?
"
asked
Paddy
as
he
came
back
into
the
lounge
.
Father
Ralph
reached
for
the
whiskey
bottle
standing
on
the
sideboard
,
and
poured
a
tumbler
half
full
.
"
I
do
n't
honestly
know
.
God
in
heaven
,
Paddy
,
I
wish
I
knew
which
is
an
Irishman
's
greater
curse
,
the
drink
or
the
temper
.
What
possessed
you
to
say
that
?
No
,
do
n't
even
bother
answering
!
The
temper
.
It
's
true
,
of
course
.
I
knew
he
was
n't
yours
the
moment
I
first
saw
him
.
"
"
There
's
not
much
misses
you
,
is
there
?
