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 … To market she went, to buy him some tripe,When she came back he was smoking his pipe.Why, sure, cried the dame, youd beat the great Jocko,Who before ever saw a dog smoking tobacco ?
