AIN, rain, go away,
Come again another day;
Little Susy wants to play.

As the days

As the days grow longer
The storms grow stronger.

Bessy Bell and Mary Gray

ESSY BELL and Mary Gray,
They were two bonny lasses:
They built their house upon the lea,
And covered it with rashes.
Bessy kept the garden gate,
And Mary kept the pantry:
Bessy always had to wait,
While Mary lived in plenty.

Jack Sprat's pig

Jack Sprat's pig,
He was not very little,
Nor yet very big;
He was not very lean,
He was not very fat;
He'll do well for a grunt,
Says little Jack Sprat.
