They on’y towd me it wor bad—

It would be so!

Eh, what a man!—an’ that cobbly road,

They’ll jolt him a’most to death,

I’m sure he’s in for some trouble

Nigh every time he takes breath.

Out o’ my way, childt—dear o’ me, wheer

Have I put his clean stockings and shirt;

Goodness knows if they’ll be able

To take off his pit dirt.
