Love the lord and only the lord

O’Riely and father O’Brien

Father O’Brien!

Yes father O’Riely.

Did you love your mother!?

O yes father O’Riely, and what a darling sweet woman she was.

Well then father O’Brien, wouldn’t you like to marry a darling girl like your mother some day!?

I’ve thought about it father O’Riely, but the lord keeps calling me.

My! God Father O’Riely! you must be following a different god to me!
