ed to the five toes.

The girl in the lane,
That couldn't speak plain,
Cried gobble, gobble,
Gobble:
The man on the hill,
That couldn't stand still,
Went hobble, hobble,
Hobble.

Bah, bah, black sheep,
Have you any wool?
Yes, marry, have I,
Three bags full:
One for my master,
And one for my dame,
And one for the little boy
Who lives in the lane.

A Dillar a dollar,
A ten o'clock scholar,
What makes you come so soon?
You used to come at ten o'clock,
But now you come at noon.

One, two, three, four, five,
I caught a hare alive;
Six, seven, eight, nine, ten,
And let it go again.

Hark! hark! the dogs do bark,
Beggars are coming to town,
Some in jags, and some in rags,
And some in velvet gown.

Four little mice sat down to spin,
Pussy pass'd by and she peep'd in;
"What are you at, my fine little men?"
"Making coats for gentlemen."
"Shall I come in, and cut off your thread?"
"No! no! Miss Pussy, you'll bite off our head."

To market, to market, to buy a plum bun.
Home again, home again, market is done.

There was a piper who had a cow,
But he had no hay to give her;
So he took his pipes and played a tune,
Consider, old cow, consider!

There was an old woman
Who lived in a shoe,
She had so many children
She didn't know what to do;
She gave them some broth
Without any bread,
She whipp'd them all soundly
And sent them to bed.

Lady-bird, lady-bird,
Fly away home,
Your house is on fire,
Your children will burn.

Rain, rain,
Go away,
Come again
Another day,
Little Harry
Wants to play.

The man in the wilderness asked me
How many strawberries grew in the sea?
I answered him, as I thought good,
As many red herrings as grew in the wood.

Hiccory, diccory, dock,
The mouse ran up the clock;
The clock struck one,
The mouse ran down,
Hiccory, diccory, dock.

Daffy-down-dilly has come up to town,
In a yellow petticoat and a green gown.

Hey, my kitten, my kitten,
And hey, my kitten, my deary,
Such a sweet pet as this
Was neither far nor neary.

Hey diddle diddle,
The cat and the fiddle,
The cow jump'd
