There did lie but slight sheädes down below.

An' the sky wer a-showèn, in drough

By the tree-stems, the deepest o' blue,

Wi' a light that did vall on an' off

The dry ground, a-strew'd over wi' scroff.

There the hedge that wer leätely so high,

Wer a-plush'd, an' along by the zide,

Where the waggon 'd a-haul'd the wood by,

There did reach the deep wheelrouts, a-dried.

An' the groun' wi' the sticks wer bespread,
