They hunted, an’ they hollo’d, an’
the next thing they did find
Was two young lovers in a lane, an’ these they
left behind.
Look
ye there!
One said that they were lovers, but another he said
“Nay;
They’re two poor wanderin’ lunatics—come,
let us go away.”
Look
ye there!

So they hunted, and they hollo’d, till the setting
of the sun;
An’ they’d nought to bring away at last,
when th’ huntin’-day was done.
Look
ye there!
Then one unto the other said, “This huntin’
doesn’t pay;
But we’n powler’t up an’ down a
bit, an’ had a rattlin’ day.”
Look
ye there!
