  1. Long ago there were a number of men who used mow.
    There was a man, named Byrne, and he used mow an acre of meadow with a scythe, in the day. He used to bet with other mowers that he would mow more in the day that they would. The winner got porter.
    There was a man, named Burke, and he used cut two perches of turf and "spread" it, in the day.
