    began to curse and swear because he was on the wrong train.
    When he got out at Wicklow he got into another one which was going to Waterford. He began to curse and swear just the same as before. He got into another train when the other one stopped. He happened to be in the same carriage with a priest.
    He asked the priest where he was going, but when the priest heard him cursing he told him that he was going to hell.
    Oh am I said the man, "begor" I am in the wrong train again.
