"I envy the people who can claim nationality with you. I'd be a Paddy myself to-morrow if I could, for that one reason.",The woman called again, "No, no; do not go on; come now and wrestle once with me.",Some one comes in with a lamp, and places it on a distant table, where its rays cannot distress the dying man.,"I'm here," she cries, in the glad happy tones that have been ringing their changes in his heart all day.，"Impossible," says Mona.，"So should I," says Rodney, eagerly, but incorrectly; "at least, not myself, but you,—in something handsome, you know, open at the neck, and with your pretty arms bare, as they were the first day I saw you."，"You will be near too, Geoffrey?" murmurs Mona, falteringly."'Breathes there the man, with soul so dead,
