Ee ant wi gor some gud poets on ere.

It wor misty an' frosty an' dark as a booit, An' soa cowd ye'd ha'e pitied a toad, When ah eeard to me thinkin' a leet little fooit Pit-pattin' behint ma on t'road. Nah, at five ur awf-past, ov a cowd winter morn, Ah'd noa thowts ov a cumrade at all, So ah stude whol thear coom up a bit ov a barn, Like a peggy-stick airin' a shawl. 'Hollou, lass,' ah said, as I tapt hur o' t' crahn, 'Tha'll be doin for i' t'river ur t'kiln; Whot are ta, yo' monkey, an' wheer are ta bahn?' Says shoo, 'A short-timer to t'miln.' 'If that maister o' thine's onny childer,' ah said, 'Ah sud like 'em to march at thy back; Bud, ah guess, if tha'd laid an ahr longur i' bed 'At trade 'ud begin to be slack.' 'Hay! maister,' shoo said ,'ah've eeard t'governer sweear 'At he's made nowt by t'trade for this age, An' his horses an' carriages nips him so bare Whol he 'ardly can thoil to gie wage. 'Then he's bowt an istaat, an' he's beeldin' a hahse, Ey! an' t' cost on't no mortal knaws yit; If we pinch whol wer cubbords weant paster a mahse He can nobbud just stand on his fit. 'He says furriners latly hes made a gurt spring, An' they live on chopt cabbage an' saam; Soa it hoins him, ye see, to shut brass like a king, An' then sell i' t'same markets wi' thame. 'If we doan't work for little, we moant work at all, An' my gronfathur said yusterneet If it worn't for t'short-timers 'at t'systum 'ud fall, An' t'plewshare cum back into t'street.' Ah lewkt off t'ee-end 'at that wizand owd barn, An' ah said, 'It appears like to me 'At t'factory an' t'mansion an' t'main o' t' consarn Is uphodden by midges like thee.' Here ah pairted wi' t'barn, an' ah cuddant bud laugh, Thau ah felt noan so mich at my eease, For ah thowt to myseln--it's a bonny come-off If we're propt by sich pillars as theease. Paul
