But he was warned in the dhrame ta be very careful o' how he'd move in case he break any o' them or knock them against a sthone in the passage, for it was very narra for movin' about in.
Any nexht mornin' when he wakened, didn't he say that he'd thry out his dhrame, so he made his way to the passage, an' sure enough if he didn't find the glass altar, an' the Sacred Vessels, an' fot war vestments he wanted, an' them all made o' glass. So he read his mass there, an' I believe that was all that was ever seen o' the altar in the passage at Shanco.(no title)
