— may ye live in honour, and die in happiness, and, in the ind, may heaven be yer bed !' '^ You may guess how happy the poor girl became, when sheltered under our roof; for the confiding hope, so powerful with those of her country, was strong within her, and she had succeeded in assuring herself that at length she would obtain justice — ^justice which the humbler Irish so rarely have — I may say, indeed, so rarely expect : but which I trust to live to see extended to them as evenly and as fully... as to their brethren of England — with whom it is a right as regularly looked for as their daily food.
"And now, my dear Lord, " continued the Lady Helen, "tell me, if a fair English maiden, with soft blue eyes, and delicate accent, had thus suffered ; if driven from her beloved home, with a helpless parent, she had refused the hand of the man she loved, because she would not bring poverty to his dwelling — if she had undertaken a journey to a foreign land, suffered scorn and starvation — been tempted to return, but, until her object was accomplished, until justice was done to her parent, resisted that temptation — would you say she acted from impulse, or from principle ?" " I say, " replied the old gentleman, answering- his god-daughter's winning smile, " that you are a saucy gipsy to catch me in this way.
