A handkerchy he'd give to her,

If he're a living man.

The gaon wor made, to 'th church shoo went;

But what gave most delight,

Shoo heeard foulks whisper as shoo past,

I never so the like!

But when shoo coom at Rubin's cot,

A hut that stood o'th moor,

Old Rubin sat, and Grace his wife,

Both smooking at the door.
