Dame Dowson they pursue,

And from the broad Oak’s canopy,

O’er moonlight fields of sparkling dew,

They bear in triumph the Old Dame,

Bawling, with loud Huzza’s, her name;

“A witch, a witch!” the people cry,

“A witch!” the echoing hills reply:

’Till to her home the Granny came,

Where, to confirm the tale of shame,

Each rising day they went, in throngs,
