An' had a-reach'd the bottom o't,

Or soon could meäke it out.

Wi' narrow feäce, an' nose so thin

That light a'most shone drough the skin,

As he did talk, wi' his red peäir

O' lips, an' his vull eyes did steäre,

What nippy looks friend Daniel wore,

An' how he smiled as he did bring

Such reasons vor to clear a thing,

As dather'd vo'k the mwore!
