JOHN HELPS
Reading edition
John Helps a wer an honest mon; The perry that a made Wer crunched vrom purs as honest As ever tree displayed. John Helps a wer an honest mon; The dumplings that a chewed Wer made vrom honest apples As Autumn ever growed. John Helps a wer an honest mon, And I be sorry a’s dead. Perry and honest men be scarce These days, ’tiz zed.
