At Grenley bridge wer overflow'd,

Poor Sophy White, the pleäces pride,

A-gwaïn vrom market, went to ride

Her pony droo to tother zide;

But vound the strëam so deep an' strong,

That took her off the road along

The hollow down to gramfer's.

'Twer dark, an' she went on too vast

To catch hold any thing she pass'd;

Noo bough hung over to her hand,
