Never look down.

That was the saying at Pennarby mine.
A stranger came to Pennarby shaft

White IN the collar and s.in in the hat,
With his patent boots and his silk cravat.
Picking his way.
Dainty and fine,
Stepping tiptoe TO Pennarby mine.

II he tried with shovel might he get some?
Was bad for the spire:
Anc wasn't IL warmish In Pennarby mine?
Twas like two worlds that met that day
The world Of work and the world OF play;
And the griIny lads from the reeking shaft
Nucged each other and grinned and chaffed.
Get EN- all out.
"a cousin OF mine,''
So ran the banter at Pe1narby mine.
And Csrnbrae Bob. the Pennarhy wit,
Told him the facts about the pit:
How they bored the shaft tin the birthstone smell
Warned them of from the tapping-weII,
He wouldn't say what.
But they took IL sign
To dig no deeper in PennaTby mine.
Then leaning over and pserlng In.
He was pointing out what he said was tin
In the ten-Icot lOde-a CraSnt Jar

Gone IN his strength.

Far down a narrow ledge.
