Sister, tha knows while we was on the planks / Aside o' th' grave, while th' coffin wor lyin' yet / On th' yaller clay, an' th' white flowers top of it / Tryin' to keep off 'n him a bit o' th' wet,
An' parson makin' haste, an' a' the black / Huddlin' close together a cause o' th' rain, / Did t' 'appen ter notice a bit of a lass away back / By a head-stun, sobbin' an' sobbin' again?
