Irish Blessings, Toasts And Curses

Synopsis

Hearing the news of a death or marriage, consoling neighbours in sorrow or sharing their joy, looking for a husband or wife, saving turf, or going fishing - Irish people had blessings, toasts and curses for every occasion. O'Farrell's glorious collection is divided into 3 sections: Blessings: 'May you escape the gallows, avoid distress, and be as healthy as a trout.' Toasts: 'May the roof above us never fall in, And may us good companions beneath it, Never fall out.' Curses: 'That you may roast in hell for that and have your gravy sucked by the devil.'
