The gillyflower sweet — and so are you.
These are the words you bade me say
For a pair of new gloves on Easter-day.
| [Great A, little a, bouncing B,] The Cat’s in the Cupboard, and she can’t see. |
| [The little black dog ran round the house,] And set the bull a roaring, And drove the monkey in the boat, Who set the oars a rowing, And scared the cock upon the rock, Who cracked his throat with crowing. |
| [Oh, what a sweet little white Mouse!] Oh, what a dear little bright Mouse! With his eyes of pink, Going winky-wink, Oh, what a sweet little white Mouse. [My little Pink,] I suppose you think, I cannot do without you, I’ll let you know Before I go, How little I care about you. |
