Only to fetch his milking-pails,

When up he shies like head or tails;

Nor would the Bull let Tom a-be,

Till he had toss'd the best o' three;—

And there lies Tom with broken bones,

A surgeon's job for Doctor Jones;

Well, Doctor Jones lays down the law,

'There's two crackt ribs, besides a jaw,—

Eat well,' says he, 'stuff out your case,

For that will keep the ribs in place;'
