The haÿ-meäkers did come vrom groun',
An' all zit down, wi' weary bwones,
Within the yard a-peäved wi' stwones,
Along avore the peäles, between
The yard a-steän'd an' open green.
There women zot wi' bare-neck'd chaps,
An' maïdens wi' their sleeves an' flaps
To screen vrom het their eärms an' polls.
An' men wi' beards so black as coals:
Girt stocky Jim, an' lanky John,
