The leaf has been trimmed down to 21 x 16 cm. with rounded corners around the poem's decorative border. The poem consists of 96 lines in twelve eight-line stanzas; it is arranged in two columns beneath the title: 'ON THE WING. BY JOHN LAWTON.' First stanza reads: 'I wor thinkin one neet wol sit i mi cheer Wot thowts enter sum people's pates; Wot useful invenshuns they'n plan'd everywheer To benefit people un states. Locomotives un steomers I think yol find Un hundreds o things I might name Fast flitted e fancy throo somebody's mind Un war plann'd by sombody's brain.' The second stanza expands on the theme: 'Tho swift wi con travil on land and on sea Discontent is still to be seen; For sum want to travil o new-fanglt wey Throo th'air in o flyin machine: Un shud they succeed as sum think ut they will In thus navigatin the air Streets un roads wod soon be desertud un still Un oytch thing wod look very quare.' Third stanza: 'One fellow is tryin to make o balloon To go ogen th'wint like o ship Un wen it is reddy he'll start very soon Un go on o grand trial trip. Then another I yerd on made sum big wings - He sed he felt shure he cud fly: He geet on o barn un adjusted his things Determin'd he'd have o good try.' The twelfth and last stanza reads: 'To think wot greyt changes this flyin wod bring I fashuns amusements un trade Wod make sum foak deawtful iv onny sitch thing In this world cud ever be made. Fur my part I expect to see flyin foak Soon after I see flyin pigs; Ur elephants makin gowd watches ov oak Ur crocodiles ridin i gigs.'
