That pome of Gamble's, as he's a worritin' with now, about the creation of man and the locomotive's good, but I says to him, mind you don't leave out the keb.  The locomotive, or puffing billy, as we calls him, makes a deal of noise, but ain't entitled to a better place among the works of creation than the keb.  Being a morning kebman, I might do a bit of compo at night, but my lamps is getting so precious dim by candlelight.
