How now brown cow?

My father was taught the following extension of the phrase ‘How now brown cow’ (used in elocution):

Mr Brown came out of his house on the South Downs to find a brown cow browsing on the plough. Out bounced trouncer, growling loudly. “Down foul hound”, he shouted and clouted him soundly round the snout.

Apparently, there was a second verse about Mr Brown going down the ‘mountain’ to fishing for ‘brown trout’. Does anyone know it?

A quick search doesn’t find. Where was your dad living when he heard this?

Those “How now, brown cow” exercises are designed to teach Canadians and tidewater Virginians(as I was by birth) how to avoid saying “Hou Nou Broun Cou” and other stupid words (hoose, aboot). :smiley:
