- 4:24Speaker 1: turn therry down. Then he grunted and mumbled and glendered around,
- 4:30Speaker 1: and he tooted about other neighboring ground. Still never a

- 21:14Speaker 1: skinned till you beat him as fast as a thief
- 21:17Speaker 1: in far end Derry Down. Poor tom was so maddled
- 21:21Speaker 1: in his heart, and he yed that I doubt he
- 21:23Speaker 1: had deed if they hadn't been wed. But at last
- 21:26Speaker 1: they stroke hands and agreed to be one nan He

- 21:44Speaker 1: He'd better have stopped till he deed with his dad
- 21:47Speaker 1: Derry Down. But they buckled together for better and were

- 22:14Speaker 1: an angel at first, were a devil for life Derry Down,
- 22:19Speaker 1: though nan proved to blister and kept him in pain.
- 22:22Speaker 1: Tom were like an odd sheep, for he didn't complain,
- 22:25Speaker 1: and he grew up to his looms, and he kept
- 22:27Speaker 1: waving away. But it made little odds who went wors
- 22:30Speaker 1: every day Derry Down, and he acted and plagued him
- 22:35Speaker 1: to such a degree that money a time tom had
- 22:38Speaker 1: been fain for today the lad did all that he

- 23:26Speaker 1: in bed, and who flang no more pots at out
- 23:29Speaker 1: Tommy's white head carry down. At last Nanny died, and
- 23:35Speaker 1: our lad felt it sore, for if it had been
- 23:38Speaker 1: an angel, he'd not aggrieved. More so he lingered by
- 23:42Speaker 1: the grave till he rapped her up well, and then

- 35:13Speaker 1: roll astray. He cracks his thumbs and thinks all leat
- 35:17Speaker 1: just how it's planned to go. But when he looks
- 35:20Speaker 1: things up at neat, he seldom finds it so. And
- 35:24Speaker 1: when a storm comes, dark and loud with money a
- 35:28Speaker 1: weary sigh, he toots about if slifters cloud to find
- 35:32Speaker 1: a bit of sky. He moves and moans, He grunts
- 35:36Speaker 1: and groans and thinks his comforts sore. But the minute

- 35:49Speaker 1: keeps his head for growing what his heart for growing?
- 35:53Speaker 1: Gowd the walks his chalks, and he eats, no talks,

- 1:04:20Speaker 1: while taking a whift of me pipe to other neat
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: a thought trickled into me. Pate that's sulking, because everything
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: isn't sweet, is not but a foolish consit. If one
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: had been made for a bit of a spree, and
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: the world were a marlark in school, we nough no
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: but hating and drinking and glee, and alady gam to
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: go through it's sicken. Afore his frolic were oe and
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: feel had been born for a foo poor creator, his
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: ow discontentment and doubt. Whatever his forting may be, he's
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: just like a child that goes crying about. Oh Johnny's
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: more trickle to me. One minute is troubled next minute
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: it is fain, and then this all blended. He won.
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: It's hard to tell whether he's laughing through pain. The
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: weather he's bout him for fun. He stumbles and grumbles,
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: He struggles and juggles. He capers a bit, and he's gone.
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: It's wise to be humble. He prosperous ways, for trouble
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: may chance to be neat. It's wise for to struggle
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: with sorrowful days till sorrow breeds sensible glee. He's rich,
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: that contenty we little lives well, and nurses that little
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: to more his wheel off. It's rich if he nobber
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: can feel his brother to those that are poor, and
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: to him it does fear. Though he's living be bare,
- 1:05:38Speaker 1: Some comfort shall ever be sure way, no but a
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: lifetime and peacea below, and the longest is very soon spent.
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: The summer taboon measures cuts for us ore, and the
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: most on a nob at a fence longer, short, rough, fine,
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: little matter, for that will make best of stuff till
- 1:05:58Speaker 1: it's done. When it leaps ou to get riven a bit,
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: Let's darn it as well as we can. When the
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: order comes to us to doff these old clothes, there'll
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: surely be newance to don. God bless the silver, your john, lad,
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: though the hands like rouse the iron to feel. There's
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: very few iflond who are like to gripe as weal,
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: Thou'll never die if dumps because of being poor, thy good,
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: old king of trumps, God bless the silver your go
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: up to side a hob and rest the weary shanks,
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: and don' at threaten thee. Enough we fought in and
- 1:06:37Speaker 1: are pranks. These foc AT's proud and rich me tremble
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: at a frown, then further farn as sich as thee
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: to tumble down. Thou never longst for wine nor dainties,
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: rich and rare, for such a life as thine can,
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: sweet and simple, fair, contented with emal thy's wit enough
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: to know the days is live, and weeal where tulips
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: cannot grow. And though the clues are rough and getting
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: very oud, they're unso weale enough to keep the limbs
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: for cowed. A food would find away in such a
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: suit as thine, but that the stuff to me a
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: fustian jacket fine, a tattered clout may lap a very
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: noble prize. A king may be by hap a beggary disguise.
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: When ton has laughed his feast and others done his crust,
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: then which is which? At last these little piles are dust.
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: And though the share of life may seem a losing game,
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: that's striven faire strife and kept a decent aim. No
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: mouse nooks if he mind, nor malice if he breast.
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: There's still been true and kind and trusted fates. We
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: rest through trouble, toil and wrung. There's whistled at the wark,
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: there's Rustled's life so long the lambs are getting stark.
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: Such a heart as Thine's and never failing friend. It
- 1:08:04Speaker 1: cheers Amon's decline and keeps it sweet to the end.
- 1:08:08Speaker 1: Thy banner'll soon be furled. And then they had to
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: tell he traveled the dirty world and never soilty cell.

- 1:15:26Speaker 1: The garland air Cupid's garden towards when the dawn of
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: morning began to stir with sky adorned mysel to wonder
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: afore the dew were dry, to wander in the gay
- 1:15:40Speaker 1: greenwood reat early eyeded Wrove. I could not sleep upon
- 1:15:44Speaker 1: my bed for thinking of me love down in a
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: bonny dingle, where sometimes we did stray half vows of
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: love to mingle at close of summer day. It's there,
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: we're oft among her hair, the flowers of spring. Ab Wove.
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: I sat me down to think upon the girl that
- 1:16:02Speaker 1: I do love. It's there, I made a garland my darling,
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: for to dawn, and the poses that were in it
- 1:16:09Speaker 1: they shined like the sun, the dewy poses, wild and sweet.
- 1:16:13Speaker 1: Only the leafy grove. It breaks my heart to think
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: upon the girl that I do love. The cowslip and
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: the speed well with the dew drop in its ea,
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: and the wild rose and the bluebell they blend so bonily,
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: and the honeysuckle wandering wild with violets blue I wove
- 1:16:32Speaker 1: they made me for to think upon the girl that
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: I do love. And when I pooed me poses, the
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: small birds they did sing. And when I wove me garland,
- 1:16:43Speaker 1: they made the woods to ring. On every tree, the
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: wild bird's glee rang through the leafy grove as I
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: came away at dawn of day, still thinking of my love.
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: Over the morning sun it rises to cheer my heart's delight,
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: and the silk the moon she wanders among the clouds
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: at nights, and the twinkling stars that look so fine
- 1:17:06Speaker 1: all in the heavens above her wark or play beneat
- 1:17:10Speaker 1: and day. I'm thinking of my love. These bonny bits
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: are childer. Air has sorrowed thy young days shaded. Never
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: tell me that children are tiresome. They're the best little
- 1:17:26Speaker 1: creators alive. And if beautiful country are booners, they're throng
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: as a hummerbee hive. The sunlight of heaven beams round them,
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: and seldom immortal can meet in this changeable world that
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: we're borne to with aught so unsullied and sweet. Never
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: tell me that children are tiresome. They're the best little
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: creators alive. And if beautiful country are booners, they're throng
- 1:17:51Speaker 1: as a hummerbee hive. With their prattling talk and their marlarks,
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: they keeping her body's heart green. And if gloomiest hour
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: a live's winter, I can sum me if they'll eat,
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: they're en with sound of their sweet chicken music they make.
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: And my little coat ring like a gage full of
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: twittering angels that's sent down from heaven to sing. Never
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: tell me that children are tiresome. They're the best little
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: craters alive, and I beautiful country are booners. They're throng
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: as a hummabee hive. And when I grow weary with
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: thinking and everything round me seems dark, they're keeping me
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: spirits for sinking, and sending me back to me wark
- 1:18:35Speaker 1: for I feel there's something to live for, though everything
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: else should depart, and there's nouteth wild words so precious
- 1:18:43Speaker 1: as treasures that sweeten the heart. Never tell me that
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: children are tiresome. They're the best little creators alive, and
- 1:18:51Speaker 1: I beautiful country are booners. They're as throng as a
- 1:18:54Speaker 1: hummerbee hive. And when even tide deepens around us and
- 1:18:59Speaker 1: I get them lay snugly to rest, I sometimes creep
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: up again, softly to look at him lying his nest,
- 1:19:06Speaker 1: And then quiet tears come down, dreeping as I sit
- 1:19:10Speaker 1: by the bedside alone, for the face of a little
- 1:19:13Speaker 1: child sleeping would soften the heart of a stone. They
- 1:19:18Speaker 1: never say children are tiresome. They're the best little creators alive.
- 1:19:23Speaker 1: And if beautiful country are booners, their throngers are hummerbee hive. Oh,
- 1:19:29Speaker 1: the sunshine of heaven enfolds them. And seldom a mortal
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: can meet in this changeable world that we're born to
- 1:19:37Speaker 1: without so nsullied and sweet. They never say children are tiresome.
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: They're the best little creators alive. And if beautiful country
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: are booners, there throngers are hummabee hive. To my old fiddle. Oh,
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: David was a famous king and master man are singers.
- 1:20:00Speaker 1: His fiddle was a witching thing when touched by David's fingers.
- 1:20:04Speaker 1: But David never stirred a string to melody as fine. Oh,
- 1:20:08Speaker 1: and David's fiddle couldn't sing like this out brid of mine,
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: O my bonny little angel, neast's tender, sweet and funny.
- 1:20:17Speaker 1: I wouldn't swap me music kissed to own a mint
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: o money. I sometimes think it's gradely wick the singing
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: birds inside on and not a string, but swarming thick
- 1:20:29Speaker 1: with little elves astride once, for it can sob and
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: moan and sigh, and it can pout and whimper, and
- 1:20:36Speaker 1: it can cork and wheedles sly, and it can lisp
- 1:20:39Speaker 1: and simper, and it can laugh and crow and shout,
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: and it can wail. So keen o folk cannot see

- 1:32:59Speaker 1: It was the village pride, the tightest, sweetest, soundest lad
- 1:33:03Speaker 1: that stepped them all and side for top to toe.
- 1:33:06Speaker 1: He stood six feet. His voice was loud and clear,
- 1:33:10Speaker 1: but he could whisper low and sweet when a bonny
- 1:33:13Speaker 1: lass was near. Got Robin had a witching tongue. It
- 1:33:17Speaker 1: made folk laugh and cry, and he won the hearts
- 1:33:20Speaker 1: of oud and young with loveleat in his eye. And

- 1:33:27Speaker 1: ring and country lasses prick their ears to hear Young
- 1:33:31Speaker 1: Robin sing. Young Robin was the blithest couch that frolicked
- 1:33:36Speaker 1: on the green. The gain of the lads is fouled,
- 1:33:39Speaker 1: the darling of the scene. With happy heart in nature's lap,

- 1:34:10Speaker 1: of true love here below, and Robin owns the richest
- 1:34:14Speaker 1: dower that angels can bestow. He flits no more from

- 1:35:55Speaker 1: Poor out Roddle. But he met with a friendly touch
- 1:36:00Speaker 1: that ended his mortal bows. For he fell in a
- 1:36:03Speaker 1: fatal clutch that turned up his weary toes. Though they
- 1:36:07Speaker 1: missed him. If nookexth town where penniless torpors meet, nobody
- 1:36:12Speaker 1: knew how he'd broken down, nor where he'd crept out
