Then he do slink hwome to his he'th,

Wi' his eärm a-hung down his cwold zide.

Slinkèn on! blinkèn on! thinkèn on!

Gloomy an' glum;

Nothèn but dullness to come.

An' when he do onlock his door,

Do rumble as hollow's a drum,

An' the veäries a-hid roun' the vloor,

Do grin vor to see en so glum.

Keep alwone! sleep alwone! weep alwone!
