BY MARK LONSDALE. TH UPSHOT TTS hey for th lads of our town eyne! I trow theyre like nea ither, --Theer Wulliam Brough, an Jwoney Heyne, An Kursty Kit for anither; Theer Geordy Waugh, a teeran haund At berryan bigg or shearan; But Ritson Joe can cap them aw For jinkan an careeran. The following piece, taken from Jollies Sketch of Cumberland Manners and Customs, 8vo. , Carlisle, 1811, was written by Mr. Mark Lonsdale, and intended by him to have been published in Hutchinsons History of Cumberland, but it arrived too late for insertion. It gives a true and natural description of the manners of the district of which it treats; it is a plain unvarnished story, but on that account preferable, as affording a specimen of the humour and customs of the Cumberland peasantry which, in this age of refinement, are fast going to decay, though the same general characteristics are yet extant. Information is the first object of the poem, and next to that, entertainment, but without attempting to gratify either the antiquarian or the satirist; for the virtues, foibles, merits, and eccentricities of men and things are as Thur Worton lads an twea three mair--Theer might be six or seeven--Tawkt of an Upshot lang an sair To keep up Fassens-even.
