Now Sally is married, we wish her much joy, First a girl and then a boy; Seven years after a son and a daughter, Please to come and kiss together. —Summertown, Oxford (A. H. Franklin in _Midland Garner_, N. S. ii. 32). XI. Sally, Sally Waters, sprinkle in the pan; Rise, Sally, rise, Sally, for a young man. Choose for the worst, choose for the best,[7] Choose for the prettiest that you loves best. Now you are married, &c. —Longcot, Berkshire, (Miss J. Barclay). XII. Sally, Sally Waters, Sprinkle in a pan; Cry, Sally, cry, Sally, For a young man. Rise up, Sally, Dry your tears; Choose the one you love the best, Sally, my dear. —Earls Heaton, Yorks. (Herbert Hardy). XIII. Sally, Sally Water, sprinkle in the pan, Is not —— a nice young man? and Is not (girl’s name) as good as he? They shall be married if they can agree. I went to her house and I dropped a pin, I asked if Mrs. —— was in. She is not within, she is not without, She is up in the garret walking about. Down she comes as white as milk, With a rose in her bosom as soft as silk. She off with her glove and showed me her ring, To-morrow, to-morrow the wedding begins. —Surrey (_Folk-lore Record_, v. 88). XIV. Sally, Sally Walker, come sprinkle your pan, For down in the meadows there’s a nice young man; Rise up, Sally, don’t look sad, For you shall have a husband, good or bad. On the carpet you shall kneel Till the grass grows round your feet; Stand up straightly on your feet, And choose the one you love so sweet. Now Sally’s married, we wish her joy, First a girl, then a boy; If it’s a boy, we’ll buy him a cap, If it’s a girl, we will buy her a hat. If one won’t do, will buy you two, If two won’t do, will buy you three, If three won’t do, will get you four, If four won’t do, will get no more, So kiss and shake hands, and come out. —Tong, Shropshire (Miss C. F. Keary). XV. Sally, Sally Water, come sprinkle your pan (_or_ plants), For down in the meadows there lies a young man. Rise, Sally, rise, and don’t you look sad, For you shall have a husband, good or bad. Choose you one, choose you two, Choose the fairest you can see! The fairest one as I can see, Is _Jenny Wood_, pray come to me!
