THOMAS.

Aye, aye, that's true, but still your strip

O' groun' do show good workmanship:

You've onions there nine inches round,

An' turmits that would waïgh a pound;

An' cabbage wi' its hard white head,

An' teäties in their dousty bed,

An' carrots big an' straïght enough

Vor any show o' geärden stuff;

An' trees ov apples, red-skinn'd balls

An' purple plums upon the walls,

An' peas an' beäns; bezides a store

O' heärbs vor ev'ry païn an' zore.
