Goldsmith's description of the guests in the parsonage kitchen in "Sweet Auburn" is true of many a country house in Ireland at the present day : " His house was known to all the vagrant train, He chid their wanderings, but relieved their pain; 190 Glimpses of Erinn.
The long-remembered beggar was his guest, Whose beard descending swept his aged breast ; The ruined spendthrift, now no longer proud, Claimed kindred there, and had his claims allowed; The broken soldier, kindly bid to stay, Sat by ...his fire, and talked the night away, Wept o'er his wounds or tales of sorrow done, Shouldered his crutch, and showed how fields were won. " Even the poorest among the people are willing to share their little means with their fellow-sufferers, the following instance of which came under the writer's own observation : Visiting not long since a wild and desolate part of Donegal, among the barren heathery moun- tains we came upon a cottage of the most miserable description. Its sole inhabitant was a " widdy" woman, who stood at her doorway peeling potatoes.
