Jaunty Jaun, as I was shortly before that made aware, next halted to fetch a breath, the first cothurminous leg of his nightstride being pulled through, and to loosen (let God's son now be looking down on to the poor preambler!) both of his bruised ^|+14brogues brogues,º^+|14| that were plainly made a good bit before his hosen ^|+14were were,^+|14| at the weir by Lazar's Walk (for far and wide, as large as he was lively, was he noted for his humane treatment of any kind of abused footgear), a matter of maybe nine score or so barrelhours' distance off, as truly he merited to do. He was there, ^|+14I you^+|14| could planimetrically see, when I took a closer look at him, that was to say, ^|+14greatly amply (graciousº helpings, at this rate of growing our our cotted child of yestereve will soon fill space and burst in systems, so speeds the instant!)º^+|14| altered for the brighter though still the graven image of his squarer self as he was used to be, perspiring but happy notwithstanding his foot was still asleep on him, the way he ^|+14thought thought,^+|14| by the holy ^|+14januarious januarious,^+|14| he had a bullock's hoof in his buskin, with his halluxes so splendid, through Ireland untranscended, bigmouthed poesther, propped up, restant, against a butterblond warden of the peace, one comestabulish Sigurdsen ^|14|+(and where a better than such exsearfaceman to rest from roving the laddyown he bootblacked?)^+|14|, who, buried upright like the Osbornes, ^|14|+kozydozy,^+|14| had tumbled slumbersomely on sleep at night duty behind the curing station, equilebriated amid the embracings of a monopolised bottle.

Jaun, after those few prelimbs, made out through his ^|14horoscope eroscope^14| the apparition of his fond sister Izzy, for he knowed his love by her waves of splabashing and she showed him proof by her way of blubushing, nor could he forget her so tarnelly easy as all that since he was brotherbesides her benedict godfather and heaven knows he thought the world and his life of her sweet heart could buy ^|14|+(brao!)^+|14|, poor, good, true, Jaun.

Something of a sidesplitting nature must have occurred to westminstrel Jaunathaun for a grand big blossy hearty stenorious laugh ^|14(even Drudge that lay doggo thought feathers fell)^14| hopped out of his woolly's throat like a ball lifted over the head of a deep field at the bare thought of how jolly they'd like to be trolling his whoop and all of them truetotypes in missammen massness were just starting to spladher splodher with the jolly magorios, hicky hecky hock, huges huges huges, hughy hughy hughy, O Jaun (Thou pure. Our virgin. Thou holy. Our health. Thou strong. Our victory. O salutary! Sustain our firm solitude, thou who thou well strokest. Hear hairy ones. We have sued thee but late. Beauty parlous.), so jokable and so geepy, O, when suddenly (how like a woman!), swifter as mercury, he wheels right round starnly on the Rizzies suddenly, with his gimlets blazing rather sternish (how black like thunder!), to see what's loose. So they stood still and wondered. Till first he sighed (and how ill soufered!) and they nearly cried (the salt of the earth!) ^|14|s+after which he pondered^s+|14| and finally he replied:

Well, the slice and veg joint's well in its way and so is a ribroast and jackknife as sportan diet, but home cooking everytime. Mountain's good mustard and, with the helpings of ladies' lickfigs and gentlemen's relish, I've eaten a griddle. But I fill twice as stewhard what I felt before when I'm after eating a few natives.
