O' whatever the bwoys mid ha' broke,

It wull seem but so small in my zight,

As a leaf a-het down vrom a woak

An' not meäke me ceäper an' froth

Vull o' wrath, lik' Gruffmoody Grim.

THE TURN O' THE DAYS.

O the wings o' the rook wer a-glitterèn bright,

As he wheel'd on above, in the zun's evenèn light,

An' noo snow wer a-left, but in patches o' white,
