Synopsis
Excerpt from Specimens of Cornish Provincial Dialect: Collected and Arranged Uncle Jan Treenoodle, With Some Introducory Remarks, and a Glossary, by an Antiquarian Friend, Also a Selection of Songs and Other Pieces Connected With Cornwall
The Trenoodles was well to do as long agone as one thousand and one hundred years before the Chris tian aera; for, about this time, the grand wrestling bout corned off at the Hoe at Plemouth, between Corinaeus, and Gog-magog, when Corinacus thraw'd his man by a Cornish hug (then first found out by he), and gived his name to Cornwall, which were the prize as they wrastled for.
