Vy Snook is that you! Vell if I arnt completely struck! Vy Ven did you change your Vooden Legs for Cork'uns!___?
Cork ones! now do they look like a Pair of Cork ones. No old Boy they are real Flesh and Blood, and ten times a Better Pair than wot I was Born with, it'll only cost you a Shilling my Tulip and you'll have a good a Pair of Stumps as myself
Yesterday you must know, I bought a Box of Morrisons Uniwersal Wegetable Pills, for a Swelling in my Thighs, well, so I took'em all afore I went to Bed and when I awakes in the morning to kick of the clothes I'm bless'd if I did'nt find myself with these 'ere Couple of Jolly good Legs and my Old Wooden ones right at the bottom of the Bed!!!
