"The Tinker's Wedding"

MICHAEL. Hurry on now. He's a great
man to have kept us from fooling our gold;
and we'll have a great time drinking that bit
with the trampers on the green of Clash.
[They gather up their things. The priest
stands up.

PRIEST -- lifting up his hand. -- I've
sworn not to call the hand of man upon your
crimes to-day; but I haven't sworn I wouldn't
call the fire of heaven from the hand of the
Almighty God.
[He begins saying a Latin malediction in
a loud ecclesiastical voice.

MARY. There's an old villain.
All -- together. -- Run, run. Run for
your lives.
[They rush out, leaving the Priest master
of the situation.
