Fool; Smoky house, vagabond.Road was built through the ruins of her dairy three years ago.Where her milking beawn was there were big stones and the sign of the asses's hoof and the cat's paw was in the rock. The sign of her own foot was in another rock When they were making new Road they took the stones and put them in it. They all (those that handled the stones) got sore fingers and whiltoes and there used be light seen where they put the stones. Some of them were put in gullet's and they had to be taken up again and put in the same place that they were first (in time of rain the gullet used get blocked up.)
