My a drouvyas hedna; scrifys o ev nanj ew termyn hir. Wojava whei ell gweles an keth scrif en spellyans moy "arnowydh".

I found this; it was written a long time ago. After it you can see the same text in more "modern" spelling.

Capt. Noel Carter of St.Agnes 1698
Ha me a moaz

A Mi a moaz, a mi a moaz in Goon Glaze,
Mi a clouaz, a clouaz, a clouaz, a troz, a troz, a troz, an pysgaz miniz.
Bez mi a trouviaz un pysg brawze, Naw Losia,
Olla Boble en Porthia ha Marazjowan
Ne mi ôr Dho Gan Zingy.
(Bor.MS: Nevra ni ôr dho ganzingy.)

(in Borlase & Tonkin) 1698 OC Vol I (Tonkin MS)

Ha my ow mos, ha my o mos en Goon Las,
My a glowas, a glowas, a glowas, an tros, an tros, an tros an puskes
 münys.
Bes my a drouvyas

As I was going on a Green Down,
I heard the noise of the tiny fishes.
But I found one big fish, with nine tails,
that neither all the people in St Ives and Marazion,
nor I can (know how to) catch
