Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake,
Baker's man!
That I will master,
As fast as I can.

Pat it, and prick it,
And mark it with T,
And there will be enough
For Jacky and me.


THE MAN OF THESSALY

There was a man of Thessaly,
And he was wond'rous wise,
He jump'd into a quickset hedge,
And scratched out both his eyes:

But when he saw his eyes were out,
With all his might and main
He jump'd into another hedge,
And scratch'd them back again.
