    you doing or do you know its Sunday morning. Begor I do Mam, but I have five small children to support and I canot afford to lose a day's work She put her hand under her cloak and pulled out a green knitted purse secured by a running stream "Take this" she said and what thistles you have will feed your pig for the day." "Go to Mass and don't ever cut thistles on a Sunday again" "You will sell the pig in a month for five guineas and be sure and buy a bonham and I promise you will have luck in the future."
