one o'clock at night
Pore Nancy , her and Andy war libing together in dar nice little cabin , and Nancy did keep ebery ting shinin ' like a new pin , 'cause she would work so hard when she was done her task for Missus . But one day Missus got de debil in her , and sayed Andy should n't come der any more , and she jist had all Nancy 's tings took out de cabin and shut it up , and made her come and sleep in de house . Pore Nancy , she cried as if her heart would break right in two ; and she says why does you take my husban ' from me ? and Missus said I did it to please my own self , and den Nancy kneeled at her feet and said , ` Missus I 'll get up before day and set up till twelve or one o'clock at night and work for you , but please do n't take me from my husban ' . An ' what do you think ole Missus did ? Why she jist up wid her foot and kicked Nancy in de mouf , and knocked out two of her teef . I seed her do it wid my own blessed eyes .
