A rick o’ thine wull look a little funny,
When thou’st a-done en, I’ll bet any money.
BOB.
You noggerhead! last year thou meäd’st a rick,
An’ then we had to trig en wi’ a stick.
An’ what did John that tipp’d en zay? Why zaid
He stood a-top o’en all the while in dread,
A-thinkèn that avore he should a-done en
He’d tumble over slap wi’ him upon en.

You yoppèn dog! I warnt I meäde my rick
So well’s thou meäd’st thy lwoad o’ haÿ last week.
They hadden got a hundred yards to haul en,
An’ then they vound ’twer best to have en boun’,
Vor if they hadden, ’twould a-tumbl’d down;
An’ after that I zeed en all but vallèn,
An’ trigg’d en up wi’ woone o’m’s pitchèn pick,
To zee if I could meäke en ride to rick;
An’ when they had the dumpy heap unboun’,
He vell to pieces flat upon the groun’.
BOB.
Do shut thy lyèn chops! What dosten mind
Thy pitchèn to me out in Gully-plot,
A-meäkèn o’ me waït (wast zoo behind)
A half an hour vor ev’ry pitch I got?
An’ how didst groun’ thy pick? an’ how didst quirk
To get en up on end? Why hadst hard work
To rise a pitch that wer about so big
’S a goodish crow’s nest, or a wold man’s wig!
Why bist so weak, dost know, as any roller:
Zome o’ the women vo’k will beat thee hollor.
