Please, mamma, give me some dinner.

Old mother Twitchet had but one eye,

And a long tail which she let fly;

And every time she went over a gap,

She left a bit of her tail in a trap.

[A needle and thread.]

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 there?

I frighten’d a little mouse under the chair.
