From: MARRIED LIFE RHYME SECTION

SLAVE MARRIAGE CEREMONY SUPPLEMENT

Dark an' stormy may come de wedder;
I jines dis he-male an' dis she-male togedder.
Let none, but Him dat makes de thunder,
Put dis he-male an' dis she-male asunder.
I darfore 'nounce you bofe de same.
Be good, go 'long, an' keep up y[=o]' name.
De broomstick's jumped, de worl's not wide.
She's now y[=o]' own. Salute y[=o]' bride!
