Heerd

Also whipperwills.—My land!—

All so mournful ever'where—

Them out here, and her in there,

That the whole thing railly 'peared

'Most like 'tendin' Services!

Anyway, I must 'a' jes

Kind o' drapped asleep, I guess;

'Cause when Jonas must 'a' passed

Me, a-comin' in, I knowed

Nothin' of it—yit it seemed

Sort o' like I kind o' dreamed

'Bout him, too, a-slippin' in,

And a-watchin' back to see

Ef I wuz asleep—and then

Passin' in where 'Viry wuz—

And where, I declare, it does

'Pear to me I heerd him say,

Wild and glad and whisperin'—

'Peared-like heerd him say, says-ee

"Ah! I' got you home ag'in—

Home ag'in witn me!"
