English poem
Ii
by John Stephen Farmer (1854–1916)
'E gits me on at skittles and 'e flukes, And when 'e wants to 'e can use 'is "dooks," You see 'im put 'em up, well there, it's great, 'E takes a bit of lickin at 'is weight; 'E'll stick up like a Briton for 'is pals, An' ain't 'e just a terror with the gals; I loves to see 'im cuttin' of a dash, A walkin' down our alley on the mash. There, 'e's a little champion, Do me proud well 'e's a knock out, I've knowed 'im take a girl on six foot tall; 'E'll git 'imself up dossy, Say I'm goin' out wi' Flossie, An' 'e only stands about so 'igh, that's all.
