II

Two milling coves, each vide awake,

Vere backed to fight for heavy stake;

But in the mean time, so it vos,

Both kids agreed to play a cross;

Bold came each buffer to the scratch, [3]

To make it look a tightish match;

They peeled in style, and bets were making, [4]

'Tvos six to four, but few were taking.

Ri, tol, lol, etc.
