Ov all the blossom, black an' white:

"Ah! ah!" thought he, the seäme's the bee,

"Theäse beäns be all a-zent vor me."

Zoo let the worold's riches breed

A strife o' claïms, wi' weak and strong,

Vor now what cause have I to heed

Who's in the right, or in the wrong;

Since there do come drough yonder hatch,

An' bloom below the house's thatch,

The best o' maïdens, an' do own
