The rose is red,
The violet's blue,
Sugar is sweet,
And so are you.
Little Boy Blue, come blow up your horn,
The sheep's in the meadow, the cow in the corn.
There was an old woman tossed up in a basket
Nineteen times as high as the moon;
Where she was going I couldn't but ask it,
For in her hand she carried a broom.
Old woman, old woman, old woman, quoth I,
O whither, O whither, O whither so high?
To brush the cobwebs off the sky!
Shall I go with thee? Aye, by-and bye.
