"Oh! here's an ugly crawlèn thing,

A sneäke." "A slooworm; he wont sting."

"Hee! hee! how she did squal an' hop,

A-spinnèn roun' so quick's a top."

"Look here, oh! quick, be quick."

"What is it? what then? where?"

"A rabbit." "No, a heäre."

"Ooh! ooh! the thorns do prick,"

"How he did scote along the ground

As if he wer avore a hound."
