| Summary: | dodge v Man frightened by falling over a bull [check] one dark night. H. But that's not the biggest fright I got! The biggest fright I got I got with a bloody bull! - a dark night. Ouph! (? ?) in the night, and Will Snow, a feller that lived up here in the bottom,had a big black government GOVERNER? [check]bull, way back, we'll say, that was, Jesus, back years ago!.I was dodgin' off in the night, a[n]d dark as the grave - no road, you know - a rock stickin' up perhaps that high out o' the ground and.there was this and that and a mud, (and an old BRIDGE??). So I was _dodgin'_ on, happy as a lark, you know, - by the Jesus, what was goin' to happen when you get there! And I never knowed nothing, sir, afore I measured my length, right sprawlin', face and eyes in the road! Up jumps this bull! Aaaaagh! And this was a God-damn big black bull! And of course I took off so fast as the Devil could let me up the road. Couldn't go no fast(er) [THAN] the legs WOULD carry me: I was gone, see. And of course when I come to look around and consider, this was this government bull. Aye, he was laid down in the road and I fell right over un, souse! He's as black as the tar-barrell (ON UN THE BUL WAS?)I knowed all about the bull, but never knowed the son of a gun was around, you know! But sir an' he's knees never stodd 'fore I went right sprawlin' over! I never seen un no more sir than I sees the king in England now; 'fore I landed my length. measured my length right over un! and he jumped up, you know, like the bull, up on th' hinder legs first with the big, "Aaaaagh!" [MOOING SOUND] and I took off. If that's not the Devil after (THIS) I'd know him since! .the lane we had, there was no lights, what I mean to say, and the roads all CAPPED? ->kept in with alders and.and one thing [or] another, you know.
