The DT text is accurately copied from Sedley's book (though he is not credited), where the (presumably original) dialect spelling given by Lloyd has been rendered mostly into standard forms.

There isn't much to add to Kennedy's references, except that Roud lists this one (print examples only) at number 3504.
