X:1 T:Love At The Endings M:2/2 L:1/8 C:Ed Reavy S:The Collected Compostions of Ed Reavy R:Reel N:Who can forget the impassioned speech of N:O'Killigan in O'Casey's Purple Dust, especially when he sets out to N:woo Avril away from her British lord. O'Killigan has only the simple N:things in his favor. But Avril finally succumbs to his grand talk as N:he urges her "to spit out what's here" and make a home with him out N:in the west of Ireland where they'll both find "things to say and N:things to do, and love at the endings."
