Cant ye have respect for the dead?
Go easy with that poor horse.
The stable man says, For the love o Jaysus what are ye squawkin
about? Tis only a dead horse, and Michael runs at him again with his
head down and his small fists flying till the stable man gives him a shove
that sends him on his back and Mam goes at the stable man in such a
rage he runs up the planks and over Finns body to escape. He comes
back drunk in the evening to sleep it off and after he leaves theres a
smoldering in the hay and the stable burns down the rats running up
the lane with every boy and dog chasing them till they escape into the
streets of respectable people.
