To every place where de woman spit, de man go dere an’ stan’ an’ call—

“Jesta be-yo, eh, eh, eh, o,”

at each stopping-place of half a mile until two miles are passed. An’

jus’ as de woman hear de voice of de man, stan’ at door-mout’ an’ see

dat de man coming. An’ de man go tak him wife an’ catch him right back

to home yard.

Jack man dory, choose none!
