I was walking up the street,

The steeple bells were ringing

[23]

Five little sisters walking in a row:

Now, isn't that the best way for little girls to go?

[24]

In go-cart so tiny

My sister I drew

[25]

Some geese went out a-walking,

To breakfast and to dine

[26]

You are going out to tea to-day,

So mind how you behave

[27]

Poor Dicky's dead!—The bell we toll,

And lay him in the deep, dark hole

Up you go, shuttlecocks, ever so high!

Why come you down again, shuttlecocks—why?

[29]

Tommy was a silly boy,

"I can fly," he said

[30]

Higgledy, piggledy, see how they run!

Hopperty, popperty! what is the fun?

[31]

Which is the way to Somewhere Town?

Oh, up in the morning early

[32]

The boat sails away, like a bird on the wing,

And the little boys dance on the sands in a ring

[33]

Pipe thee high, and pipe thee low,

Let the little feet go faster

Polly's, Peg's, and Poppety's

Mamma was kind and good

[35]

Bowl away! bowl away!

Fast as you can

[36]

"For what are you longing, you three little boys?

Or what would you like to eat?

[37]

O ring the bells! O ring the bells!

We bid you, sirs, good morning

[38]

Then ring the bells! then ring the bells!

For this fair time of Maying

[39]

I saw a ship that sailed the sea,

It left me as the sun went down
