    Poem 12:7:1937
    Up the heathery mountain,
    Down the rushy glen,
    We daren't go a-hunting
    For fear of little men:
    Wee folk, good folk,
    Trooping all together,
    Green jacket, red cap,
    And white owl's feather.
    Up the heathery mountain,
    Down the rushy glen,
    We daren't go a-hunting
    For fear of little men;
    Wee folk, good folk,
    Trooping all together,
    Green jacket, red cap,
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
