  1. Folklore - A Local Song (continued)

    Did you ever hear tell of the long bottom meat ¶ It looks so oily when put on the plate

    (continued from previous page)
    III
    The morning came round, and the fry was put down,
    The wind blew from the north, and the smell went around.
    Says long Johnny - I bet a half-crown,
    There is long bottom roasting at Carney's.
