Josh Billings, begs leaf tu state:

That onions are good for a bad breth.

That Rockawa clams are a good opening for enny
yung man.

That ships are kalled she bekauze tha alwus keep
a man on the lookout.

That “turning water into wine” is a mirakle in
theze days worth, at least, 300 per cent.

That boys aint ap to turn out well who dont git up
till 10 o'clock in the morning.

That, if a man is agoing tu make a bizness ov
sarving the Lord, he likes tu see him du it when he
measures up onions as well as when he hollers glory
halleluyer!

That wisdum aint nothing more than edikated
cunning.
