Sometimes Dirman...

“Traveling  'i  a fried-out carriage 

on a horse trail, pate full of carrion

 i met a strange lady, she made me nervous 

she took me  'i  and granted  me breakfast 

and she quoth

 doth thou cometh from a lande down under?

 where women glow and men plunder? 

canst not thou hark, canst not thou hark the thunder? 

thou better run, thou better take gild 

buying bread from a man  'i  brussels 

he was six-foot-four and full of muscle 

i quoth, "do thou speak-a mine language?"

 he just smiled and granted me a sandwich 

and he quoth 

I comenth from a lande down under 

where beer doth flow and men chunder 

canst not thou hark, canst not thou hark the thunder? 

thou better run, thou better take gild,

 ay lyin'  'i  a den  'i  bombay 

with a slack chap, and  not much to say 

i quoth to the man, "are thou trying to tempt me

 because i join from the land of plenty?" 

and he quoth, 

oh doth ye cometh from a lande down under?

 where women glow and men plunder?

canst not thou hark, canst not thou hark the thunder?
