2:21John Gilpin Spice said to her dear, though wedded we have been, these twice ten tedious years, yet we no holiday have seen. Tomorrow is our wedding day, and we will then repair, and to the bell at Edmonton, all in a chase and pair. My sister and my sister's child, myself and children three, will fill the chase, so you must ride on horseback after we. He soon replied, I do admire of woman kind but one, and you are she my dearest dear, therefore it shall be done. I am a linen draper bold, as all the world of no, and my good friend, the calendar, will lend his horse to go. Quote, Mistress Gilpin. That's well said, and for that wine is dear, we will be furnished with our own, which is both bright and clear. John Gilpin kissed his loving wife, or joyed was he to find,

3:25that though on pleasure she was bent, she had a frugal mind. The morning came, the chase was brought, but yet was not allowed to drive up to the door, lest all should say that she was proud. So three doors off, the chase was stayed, where they did all get in, six precious souls and all a gog to dash through thick and thin. Smack went the whip, round went the wheels, were never folks so glad, the stones did rattle underneath us if cheap side were mad. John Gilpin, at his horse's side, seized fast the flowing mane, and up he got in haste to ride, but soon came down again. For saddle tree scarce reached at he, his journey to begin, when turning round his head he saw, three customers come in. So down he came for loss of time, although it grieved him saw, yet loss of pence, for well he knew would trouble him much more.

4:25To as long before the customers were suited to their mind, when Betty's screaming came downstairs, the wine is left behind. Good luck, quotehy, yet bring it me, my liven belt likewise, in which I bear my trusty sword when I do exercise. Now Mistress Gilpin, careful soul, had two stone bottles found, to hold the liquor that she loved and keep it safe and sound. Each bottle had a curling ear, through which the belt he drew, and hung a bottle on each side to make his balance true. Then overall that he might be equipped from top to toe, his long red cloak well brushed and neat he manfully did throw. Now see him mounted once again upon his nimble steed, full slowly pacing all the stones with caution and good heed. But finding soon a smoother road beneath his well-shod feet, the snorting beast began to trot, which gawed him in his seat. So, fear and softly!

5:32John he cried, but John he cried in vain, that trot became a gallop soon in spite of curb and rain. So stooping down as needs he must, who cannot sit upright, he grasped the main with both his hands and eke with all his might. His horse, who never in that sort had handled being before, what thing upon his back had got it wander more and more. A way went gilpin, neck or not, a way went hat and wig, he little dreamt when he set out of running such a rig. The wind did blow, the cloak did fly, like steam along and gay, to loop and button, failing both at last it flew away. Then might all people well discern the bottles he had slung, a bottle swinging at each side, as hath been said or sung. The dogs did bark, the children screamed, up flew the windows all, and every soul cried out, well done as loud as he could bore.

6:36A way went gilpin, who but he, his fame soon spread around, he carries way he rides a race to his four thousand pound. And still as fast as he drew near, it was wonderful to view how inner trice the turnpike meant their gates wide open through. And now, as he went bowing down, his wreaking head full low, the bottle's twain behind his back was shattered at a blow. Down ran the wine into the road, most pitiest to be seen, which made his horses flanks to smoke as they had basted bean. But still he seemed to carry weight, with leather and girdle braced for all might see the bottle next still dangling at his waist. That's all through Mary Islington, these gambles he did play until he came and to the wash of Edmonton so gay. And there he threw the wash about on both sides of the way, just like and to a trembling mop

7:38or a wild goose had played. At Edmonton, his loving wife, from the balcony spied, her tender husband, wondering much to see how he did ride. Stop, stop, John gilpin, here's the house. They all at once did cry. They didn't wait until we are tired. Said gilpin, so am I. But yet his horse was not a wit, inclined to carry there for why his owner had a house full ten miles off at where. So like an arrow swift he flew, shot by an archer strong, so did he fly, which brings me to the middle of my song. A way went gilpin out of breath and soar against his will, till at his friend that calendars his horse at last stood still. The calendar, amazed to see his neighbour in such trim, laid down his pipe through to the gate and thus accosted him. What news, what news, your tidings tell tell me you must and shall,

8:41say why bare headed you are come, or why you come at all. Now gilpin had a pleasant wit and loved a timely joke and thus until the calendar in merry guise he spoke. A king because your horse would come, and if I were for bowed my hat and wig will soon be here they are upon the road. The calendar, right glad to find his friend in merry pin, returned him not a single word but to the house went in. When straight came with hat and wig a wig that flowed behind had not much the worst for where each cumbly in its kind. He held him up and in his turn the showed his ready wit. I hate these twice as big as yours, they therefore need must fit. But let me scrape the dirt away that hangs upon your face and stop and eat for when you may be in a hungry case. Said John, it is my wedding day and all the world would stare if wife should dine at Edmund

9:44and I should dine at where. So turning to his horse he said, I am in haste to dine, to us for your pleasure you came here, you shall go back for mine. A luckless speech and bootless boast, for which he paid full dear, for while he spoke, a brain-ass did sing most loud and clear. Where at his horse did snort as he had heard a lion roar and galloped off with all his might, as he had done before. A way went Gilpin and a way went Gilpin's hat and wig, he lost them sooner than at first, for why they were too big. Now Mr. Gilpin, when she saw her husband posting down into the country far away, she pulled out half a crown, and thus, unto the youth she said that drove them to the bell, this shall be yours when you bring back my husband safe and well. The youth did ride and soon did meet John coming back, come in.

10:44Whom in a trice he tried to stop by catching at his reign. But not performing what he meant, and gladly would have done, the frightened steed he frightened more and made him faster run. A way went Gilpin and a way went post-boy at his heels. The post-boy's horse, right glad to miss the lumbering of the wheels. Six gentlemen upon the road thus seeing Gilpin fly with post-boy scampering in the rear, they raised the human cry. Stop thief, stop thief, they highwaymen! Not one of them was mute, and all and each that passed that way did join in the pursuit. And now the turnpike gates again flew open in short space, the tall men thinking as before that Gilpin rode a race. And so he did, and won it too, for he got first to town, nor stopped to where he had got up, he did again get down. Now let us sing Long Live the King, and Gilpin Long Live he,

11:48and when he next to Threada Broad may I be there to see. End of poem, this recording is in the public domain.
