Wid dat dey put out, dey did, en dey hunt en hunt clean 'cross de country.
— from Nights With Uncle Remus by Joel Chandler Harris

— from Arts and Crafts in the Middle Ages A Description of Mediaeval Workmanship in Several of the Departments of Applied Art, Together with Some Account of Special Artisans in the Early Renaissance by Julia de Wolf Gibbs Addison
