well! but hasumivver, here's another shillin, soa if tha thinks tha can
put it in, goa an get a square a glass an ha dun wi it."

"'Think aw can put it in?' Aw dooant think owt abaat it! Aw know aw can
put it in! What does ta tak me for? Does ta think aw havn't th' strength
an brains enuff to wrastle wi' a bit o' glass like that?"

"Tha's wrastled wi too monny glasses, Sammywell, sin aw knew thi, an
they've getten thi daan moor noa once. It's gettin lat i'th' day, nah,
to expect thi to mend mich, but if tha'd nobbut sign teetotal an join
th' chapel, an buy Jerrymier a new Sundy suit, aw think aw mun see
summat to admire in thi even yet."

"Ther's as mich to admire abaat me as ther is abaat some other fowk aw
could mention, but aw'll bi off just nah, for when aw've a job to do aw
want to get it done, an net stand hummin an haain abaat it like thee."

thrippence for this glass an aw've getten putty for nowt an when that
winder's mended it'll be better nor new an ninepence saved, soa tha sees
we'st be soa mich i' pocket."

"Then that's ninepence tha'd nivver ha saved if it hadn't ha been for
Jerrymier, soa tha connot say he's gooid for nowt onny moor."
