Upon ye Locust Tree:

So when before ye Magistrates

For tryall he did come,

He would no true Confession make

But was compleatlie dumbe.

"Giles Corey," said ye Magistrates

"What hast thou heare to pleade

To these who now accuse thy soule

Of Crymes and horrid Deed?"

Giles Corey—he sayde not a Word,
