An' there, 'ithin a geät a-hung,

But vasten'd up, an' never swung,

Upon the pillar, all alwone,

Do stan' the little bwoy o' stwone;

'S a poppy bud mid linger on,

Vorseäken, when the wheat's a-gone.

An' there, then, wi' his bow let slack,

An' little quiver at his back,

Drough het an' wet, the little chile

Vrom day to day do stan' an' smile.
