Here in Yorkshire they'd say something like :-
'Ow doost tha save thee sen?
In this part of rural US, they'd say: "You'd $&%ed, ain't ya?" :-p

Seems legitimate.
Interesting. Is that assumed from reading the Bible? The traditional KJB is in Elizabethan English, but it wasn't written until after King James was crowned, which wasn't until after Elizabeth I died. I'm not sure why they call it Elizabethan English, but it's probably due to the large rise in drama in here time, especially Shakespeare. It might also have to do with the changes in English during the Renaissance and things like Shakespeare's works were during the reign of Elizabeth.
