Cheer me oh! Cheer me oh! Cheer me oh! My will fight fe you. |
LXXIV.
In imitating animals the negro is clever. He moos like a cow, grunts like a pig, whinnies like a horse, besides the minor accomplishments of miauling and barking. Even trammelled by music this cock's crow is good:—
|
Me cock a crow coocoorico, before day him a crow coocoorico, him a crow fe me wake coocoorico. |
(Sound the i short as in rich.)
