He met a bould yeoman, and bid him for to stand; "If I do, I'm damn'd!" said he, "although you cut it grand. I'm an old English farmer, and do not me provoke I've a cudgel, look ye here, it's a prime tough bit of oak! And I'll give you some gravy, Of that I'll take my davy, If you try to prig my gold Derry down."
