Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Traits and Stories, Vol. 2 It has been long laid down as an universal principle, that self-preservation is the first law of nature. An Irishman, however, has nothing to do with such a law; he disposes of that as he does of the rest, and washes his hands of it altogether. But commend him to fair, dance, funeral, or wedding, or to any other sport where there is a likelihood of getting his head or his bones broken, and if he survives, he will remember you with a kindness peculiar to himself, to the last day of his life - will drub you from head to heel, if he finds that any misfortune has kept you out of a row beyond the usual period of three months - will render the same service to any of your friends that stand in need of it; or, in short, go to the world´s end, or fifty miles further, as he himself should say, to serve you.
