Original text and translations

English text

One morning, Dame Turner's brisk maid Betty Dyer
Was laid on her back and son Johnny stood by her;
His mother saw all and roar'd out "Oh burn her. John Turner".
When John to his mother cried "No, no, Oh fie,
She lies very well, I'll not turn her, not I".
