But all these things hur would pass by,as matters light and small;Hur knows not hur own destiny,and that's the worst of all:For as hur gazed on the sky,for want of better wit,Poor Taffy fell immediately,into a great deep pit,Had not a shepherd stood hur friend,and help hur quickly outHur surely there had made an end,hur makes no other doubt,Hur gave hur thanks. the shepherd thenspake to her when 'twas meet,Bid hur and other such like men,look better to hur feet.No mere astrologer I pray,was glad hur life was sav'd,Hur soberly walk on hur way,and food was all hur crav'd.O hur was both hungry and cold,hur strength began to fail,Hur had no silver nor no gold,hur tells hur what hur ail,Hur sold her lousie sherken then,but one poor groat was given,Oh! hur was then a shentleman,hur thought hur was in heaven;For hur had money for to buy,Victuals for one meal,
