ROOK, rook,
Read in a book!
Mouse, mouse,
Build a house!
Bee, bee,
Get your tea!
Pig, pig,
Dance a jig!
Goose, goose,
Put on shoes!
Snail, snail,
Fill the pail!
Rabbit, rabbit,
Mind you stab it!
Cricket, cricket,
Mind you kick it!

My maid Molly,
She pricked her thumb,
But only with holly,
And the blood wouldn’t come.
III
Martin, Martin
Went a carting;
And why did he travel?
To bring home some gravel.
