It is a lovely piece. I like this especially:

"Irish" English moves to a unique, euphonious rhythm. As a result our sentences sound different. Not in a way that's easily identifiable when you're in casual conversation, but they're longer, more curlicued, oddly constructed and very beautiful.

Yes. They are so.
