    another man with a hump in the house. He went out minding the cows and the faries began to sin the song they sang the song and they put the chorus to it. When they had the song sung the other man put another verse to the song he spoiled the song then the head fairy told one of his servants to go out to see who was outside he went and he said the it was another man with a hump that was outside. The head fairy told one of his servants to go out and to put the hump that he took off the other man on the man that was outside so one of his servants went out and he put it on the man went and the man went home with two humps.
