She went to the barbers to buy him a wig,When she came back he was dancing a jig.O, you dear merry grig, how nicely you re prancingThen she held up the wig, and he began dancing. … She went to the sempstress to buy him some linen,When she came back the dog was spinning.The reel, when twas done, was wove into a shirt.Which served to protect him from weather and dirt. 70 LIFE AND TIMES OF
