Such crossing is antechristian though the explanation may be geographical quite as easily as domestic economic. Then, in addition to the original sand, pounce or soft rag, it has acquired accretions of terricious matter while loitering in the past. The teastain is a study in itself and its importance in establishing the identity of the writer complex (for if the hand was one the minds were more than so) will be appreciated by remembering that after before & after the battle of the Boyne it was the custom not to sign letters always."

FDV2: "One cannot help noticing that about half of the lines run from E to W, others from N to S. These ruled lines along which the traced words can run, march, walk, stumble in comparative safety seem to have been first of all drawn in a pretty checker by using lampblack & a blackthorn. Such crossing is antechristian though the explanation may be geodetic quite as easily as domestic economic.

FDV: "near the scene of the massacre of most of the jacobiters. The bird of promise in the case was the hen of the Doran's and what she was scratching looked uncommonly like a sheet of letterpaper of the eleventh of the fifth to dear which proceeded to mention Maggy well and everybody general health and well and lovely face of some gentleman and a parcel of cookycakes well and it was grand funeral Maggy and hopes to hear from with love from a large looking stain of tea. The stain, & that of tea, marks it at once as a genuine old Irish MS. Any photoist worth his chemicals will tell you that if a negative melts while drying the resultant positive will be a grotesque distortion of values, tones & masses. This freely is what must have happened to that missive unfilthed by the sagacity of a hen. The heat residence for who knows when in the orangeflavoured mound had dissolved the first impression and caused some features palpably near us to be swollen up grossly while the farther back we get the more we need the loan of a lens to see as much as the hen saw."

It was wont to be wittily wagged by the chuckler Mahappy Mahapnot that Lucalizod was the only place in the world where the possible was always improbable and the improbable the inevitable. This implies a sequentiality of impossible probables but nobody who has read up his subject probably in Aristotle will applaud the sentiment or sentence for utterly impossible as are all these events they are probably as like those which happened as any other which never took place at all are ever likely to be.  About that hen, first. Midwinter was in the offing when a poorly clad Shiverer, a mere bantling, observed a cold fowl behaving strangely on the fatal dump at the spot called the orangery when in the course of its deeper demolition it threw up certain fragments of orange peel, the remnant of an outdoor meal of some unknown sunseeker illico in a mistridden past. What child but little Kevin would ever in such a scene have found a motive for future sainthood by euchring the discovery of the Ardagh chalice by another innocent on the seasands near the scene of the massacre of most of the jacobiters."

FDV: "Standing, seated, on horseback, against a partywall, below zero, by the use of quill or style, with perturbed or pellucid mind, accompanied or the reverse by mastication interrupted by visit of person to scriptor or of scriptor to place, rained upon or blown around, by a regular racer from the soil or a whittlewit laden with the loot of learning? And remember patience is the great thing. And above all things we must neither be nor become impatient. Think of all the patience possessed by Bruce & the spider. If after years and years of research a sage solemnly tells us that the great one is less than a name, that the ear of Earwicker was the trademark of a broadcaster and his wicker the local cant for an aeronaut then as to this oscillating epistle what is he who is the man to give us the dinkum oil? To conclude from the absence of political allusions and its [...] that it cannot ever have been the work of a man or woman of that period & those parts is as unjust as it would be to conclude from the nonpresence of inverted commas on any page that its compiler was constitutionally incapable of misappropriating the actual words of others."

FDV2: "Standing, seated, on horseback, against a partywall, below zero, by the use of quill or style, with perturbed or pellucid mind, accompanied or the reverse by mastication interrupted by visit of person to scriptor or of scriptor to place, rained upon or blown around, by a regular racer from the soil or a whittlewit laden with the loot of learning? Now, patience, and remember patience is the great thing. And above all things we must neither be nor become impatient. Think of all the patience possessed by both Bruce Brothers & their Scotch spider. If after years and years of research a sage solemnly tells us that the great one is 3 syllables less than his own surname, that the ear of Earwicker was the trademark of a broadcaster and his wicker the local cant for an aeronaut patent then as to this radio-oscillating epiepistle to which we must ceaselessly return where exactly at present is the bright soandso who is able to give us the dinkum oil? To conclude purely negatively from the positive absence of political hatred and its [...] that it cannot ever have been the pen product of a man or woman of that period & those parts is as unjust as it would be to conclude from the nonpresence of inverted commas on any page that its compiler was constitutionally incapable of misappropriating the actual words of others."
