An' theäsem men can meäke it clear.

Why vu'st they'd zend up members ev'ry year

To Parli'ment, an' ev'ry man would vote;

Vor if a fellow midden be a squier,

To meäke the laws at Lon'on, too,

Why shoulden fellows meäke good laws an' speeches

A-dressed in fusti'n cwoats an' cord'roy breeches?

Or why should hooks an' shovels, zives an' axes,
