I gave him some garters, to garter up his hose, And a little pocket-handkerchief to wipe his pretty nose. I have a little sister; they call her Peep, Peep, She wades the water, deep, deep, deep; She climbs the mountains, high, high, high. Poor little thing! she has but one eye. [Illustration: Music: Goosey, goosey, gander, whither shall I wander, Up stairs, and down stairs, and in my lady's chamber. There I met an old man, who would not say his prayers, I took him by his left leg, and threw him down the stairs.] [Illustration] Handy Spandy, Jack-a-dandy, Loves plum-cake and sugarcandy; He brought some at a grocer's shop, And out he came, hop-hop-hop. If all the world were water, And all the water were ink, What should we do for bread and cheese? What should we do for drink? Hey, my kitten, my kitten, Hey, my kitten, my deary; Such a sweet pet as this Was neither far nor neary. Here we go up, up, up, Here we go down, down, down; Here we go backwards and forwards, And here we go round, round, round. [Illustration] I had a little pony; They called him Dapple-grey. I lent him to a lady, To ride a mile away. She whipped him, she slashed him, She rode him through the mire; I would not lend my pony now, For all the lady's hire. See, see. What shall I see? A horse's head where his tail should be. Pussy cat, Pussy cat, where have you been? I've been to London to look at the Queen. Pussy cat, Pussy cat, what did you do there? I frightened a little mouse under the chair. [Illustration] Little Tommy Tittlemouse Lived in a little house; He caught fishes In other men's ditches. [Illustration: "THIS IS THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT."] THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT. This is the MALT That lay in the house that Jack built. [Illustration] This is the RAT That ate the malt, That lay in the house that Jack built. [Illustration] This is the CAT, That killed the rat, That ate the malt, That lay in the house that Jack built. [Illustration] This is the DOG, That worried the cat, That killed the rat, That ate the malt, That lay in the house that Jack built. [Illustration] This is the COW with the crumpled horn, That tossed the dog, That worried the cat, That killed the rat, That ate the malt, That lay in the house that Jack built. [Illustration] This is the MAIDEN all forlorn, That milked the cow with the crumpled horn, That tossed the dog, That worried the cat, That killed the rat, That ate the malt, That lay in the house that Jack built.
