sugar and cream.
HE very title, Nursery Rhymes, which has come to be associated with a great body of familiar verse, is in
itself sufficient indication of the manner in which that verse has been passed down from generation to
generation. Who composed the little pieces it is, save in a few cases, impossible to say: some are certainly
very old and were doubtless repeated thousands of times before their first appearance in print. References to
certain favourites may be found in the pages of the dramatists of Elizabeth's time.
Attempts are sometimes made to read into these Rhymes a deeper significance than the obvious and simple
one which has accounted for their enduring popularity in the Nursery, but this volume has no concern with
such profound interpretations, any more than have the little people who love the old jingles best.
The earliest known collection of Nursery Rhymes was published about 1760 by John Newbery, the first
publisher who devoted his attention to very young readers. In his book, which included songs from the
plays of Shakespeare, some of the Rhymes appeared with titles which sound strange to our ears; thus "Ding,
Dong, Bell" was called "Plato's Song", while "There were Two Birds sat on a Stone" was "Aristotle's Song".
To each Rhyme was appended a moral maxim, as for example, to "Is John Smith within?" is added
"Knowledge is a treasure, but practice is the key to it". Most of the Rhymes in this little Newbery collection,
amongst them "There was a little Man and he wooed a little Maid" and "The Wise Men of Gotham", are
repeated in the present volume so far as may be in accordance with that early text. Others have been
compared with early versions in chap-books issued late in the eighteenth century or early in the nineteenth.
Students divide our rhymes into narrative pieces, historical, folk-lore, game rhymes, counting-out rhymes,
jingles, fragments, and so forth, but for the children for whom and by whom they are remembered, and for
whose sake they are here collected and pictured anew, they are just—Nursery Rhymes.

Then I'll hop away to the next meadow stream,
There I will drink, and eat worms and slugs too,
And then I shall have a good dinner like you."
LITTLE JACK HORNER
Cock-a-doodle-do!
My dame has lost her shoe;
My master's lost his fiddle-stick,
And don't know what to do.
Cock-a-doodle-do!
What is my dame to do?
Till master finds his fiddle-stick,
She'll dance without her shoe.

O my kitten, a kitten,
And ho! my kitten, my deary!
Such a sweet pet as this
Was neither far nor neary.

The fly shall marry the humble-bee;
Bat, bat,
Come under my hat,
And I'll give you a slice of bacon;
On Saturday night
Shall be all my care
To powder my locks
And curl my hair.
On Sunday morning
My love will come in,
When he will marry me
With a gold ring.
MERCHANTS OF LONDON

Great A, little A,
This is pancake day;

Throw the ball low,
Those that come after
May sing heigh-ho!
HUSH-A-BYE BABY

Shot at a pigeon,
And killed a crow.

BIRDS OF A FEATHER
But while they were all a merry-making,
Heigho! says Rowley,
A cat with her kittens came tumbling in.
With a rowley powley, gammon and spinach,
Heigho! says Anthony Rowley.
IDDLEY-DIDDLEY-DUMPTY,
The cat ran up the plum-tree,
Half a crown
To fetch her down,
Diddley-diddley-dumpty.
SAMMY SOAPSUDS
UY me a milking-pail,
Mother, mother."

Or a mouse in the dark?"
"Purr," says the cat.
IF

Jerry and James and John;
Jerry was hung, James was drowned,
John was lost, and never was found;
And there was an end of her three sons,
Jerry and James and John!
THE OLD WOMAN WHO LIVED IN A
SHOE
As I walked by myself,
And talked to myself,
Myself said unto me:
Look to thyself,
Take care of thyself,
For nobody cares for thee.
I answered myself,
And said to myself,
In the self-same repartee:
Look to thyself,
Or not look to thyself,
The self-same thing will be.
TIT-TAT-TOE
IT-TAT-TOE,

Three jolly butcher-boys
All of a row;
Stick one up,
Stick one down,
Stick one in the old man's crown.

That is the way to London town.
CÆSAR'S SONG
OLOMON Grundy,
Born on a Monday,
Christened on Tuesday,
Married on Wednesday,
Took ill on Thursday,
Worse on Friday,
Died on Saturday,
Buried on Sunday,
This is the end
Of Solomon Grundy.
THREE BLIND MICE
My father he left me three acres of land,
Sing ivy, sing ivy;
My father he left me three acres of land,
Sing holly, go whistle, and ivy!
Ride a cock-horse
To Banbury Cross,
To see what Tommy can buy;
A penny white loaf,
A penny white cake,
And a twopenny apple-pie.
SEEKING A WIFE
ULTIPLICATION is vexation,
Division is as bad;
The Rule of Three doth puzzle me,
And Practice drives me mad.
OVER THE WATER TO CHARLEY
A diller, 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.
A PIE SAT ON A PEAR-TREE
Rub-a-dub-dub,
Three men in a tub;
And who do you think they be?
In April,
Come he will.
In May,
He sings all day.
In June,
He changes his tune.
In July,
He prepares to fly.
In August,
Go he must.

LITTLE BO-PEEP
Then up she took her little crook,
Determined for to find them;
Go to bed first,
A golden purse;
Go to bed second,
A golden pheasant;
Go to bed third,
A golden bird.
GRACE BEFORE MEAT

[171]
JACK AND JILL
N old woman was sweeping her house, and she found a little crooked sixpence.
"What," said she, "shall I do with this little sixpence? I will go to market, and
buy a little pig."
As she was coming home she came to a stile; but Piggy would not go over the
stile.
HE went a little farther and she met a dog.
So she said to the dog:
So she said:
HE went a little farther and she met a fire.
So she said:
HE went a little farther and she met some water.
So she said:
HE went a little farther and she met an ox.
So she said:
HE went a little farther and she met a butcher.
So she said:
HE went a little farther and she met a rope.
So she said:
HE went a little farther and she met a rat.
So she said:
HE went a little farther and she met a cat.
So she said:
The cat said: "If you will get me a saucer of milk from the cow in yonder field I
will kill the rat."
So the old woman went to the cow and said: "Cow, cow, will you give me a
saucer of milk?" And the cow said: "If you will get me a bucket full of water
from yonder brook I will give you the milk." And the old woman took the bucket
to the brook; but the water all rushed out through the holes in the bottom. So she
filled the holes up with stones, got the water, and took it to the cow, who at once
gave her the saucer of milk. Then the old woman gave the cat the milk, and
when she had lapped up the milk—
Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake,
Baker's man!
That I will master,
As fast as I can.
Tell-tale-tit,
Your tongue shall be slit,
And all the dogs in our town
Shall have a little bit.

MOTHER GOOSE
The lion and the unicorn were fighting for the crown;
The lion beat the unicorn all round about the town.
Some gave them white bread, and some gave them brown;
Some gave them plum-cake, and sent them out of town.
THE LITTLE MOUSE
HAVE seen you, little mouse,
Running all about the house,
Through the hole, your little eye
In the wainscot peeping sly,
Hoping soon some crumbs to steal,
To make quite a hearty meal.
Look before you venture out,
See if pussy is about,
If she's gone, you'll quickly run
To the larder for some fun,
Round about the dishes creep,
Taking into each a peep,
To choose the daintiest that's there,
Spoiling things you do not care.
THE NUT-TREE
Little Tom Tucker sings for his supper.
What shall he eat? White bread and butter.
How will he cut it without e'er a knife?
How will he be married without e'er a wife?
OLD WOMAN, OLD WOMAN
Lucy Locket

Kitty Fisher

Nothing in it,
Nothing in it,

Round it.

The fifth of November,
Gunpowder treason and plot.
I see no reason
Why gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy, Guy, Guy,
Stick him up on high,

And there let him die.
BILLY, BILLY
HERE was a crooked man, and he went a crooked mile,
He found a crooked sixpence beside a crooked stile;
He bought a crooked cat, which caught a crooked mouse,
And they all lived together in a little crooked house.

The cat's in the cupboard
And can't see me.
COMICAL FOLK

Went to her cupboard,
To give her poor dog a bone;
