Ah, you needn't worry about Katie. She'll give you a grand wake an then she'll forget all about you.

And, the moment I heard you were in trouble I swore I'd take you out of it! And if you're the good, decent man I think you are, you'll be showin me a little bit of gratitude!
Darby O'Gill: [abashed]
I am grateful.
King Brian:
Then you can forget the tears an troubles of the world outside. There's nothin but fun and diversion here!
