’Ch was bore at Taunton-dean, where should I be bore else?

That is, a parcel of ground round about Taunton, very pleasant and populous (containing many parishes), and so fruitful, to use their own phrase, with the zun and the zoil alone, that it needs no manuring at all. The peasantry therein are as rude as rich, and so highly conceited of their own country, tht they conceive it a disparagement to be born in any other place.
