Mrs. Donovan was walking down O'Connell Street in Dublin when she met Father Flaherty.
The priest said, "Top o' the mornin' to ye! Aren't ye Mrs. Donvan and didn't I marry ye and yer hoosband 2 years ago?"
She replied, "Aye, that ye did, Fadder."
The Father asked, "And be there any wee little ones yet?"
She replied, "No, not yet, Fadder."
Father Flaherty said, "Well, now, I'm goin' to Rome next week and I'll light a candle for ye and yer hoosband."
She replied, "Oh, thank ye, Fadder." They then parted ways.
Some years later they met again and Father Flaherty asked, "Well now, Mrs. Donovan, how are ye these days?"
She replied, "Oh, very well, Fadder!"
The priest then asked, "And tell me, have ye any been blessed with any wee ones yet?"
She replied, "Oh yes, Fadder! T'ree sets o'twins and 4 singles, 10 in all."
He then responded, "That's wonderful! How is yer loving hoosband?"
She replied, "E's gone to Rome to blow out yer candle."
