Excerpt from Wet Clay Brendan nilan ranged a languid eye over the scene. The fields held that vivid freshness which speaks of the waking year. Scattered belts of trees were beginning to show faint on their naked limbs the promise of summer garments. A woodland nearer to hand gave a deeper note to the landscape. Beyond it rose a range of hills, slope after Slope looking as if they were making an eternal obeisance to the majesty of a mountain which hung in the distance in a regal haze. Strips of yellow winding roads with slow carts driving along them, fields mapped out by a network of loose stone walls, the shapes of beasts moving aimlessly in pastures, little streaks of smoke rising from the chimneys of isolated thatched houses, met his eye, giving an im pression of a meagre life.
