+
+ [Illustration: INTRODUCTION]
+
+It is a good many years since Peacock, in one of those curiously
+ill-tempered and not particularly happy attacks on the Lake poets, with
+which he chose to diversify his earlier novels, conceived, as an
+ornament of "Mainchance Villa," a grand allegorical picture, depicting
+the most famous characters of English Nursery Tales, Rhymes,
+&c.--Margery Daw, Jack and Jill, the other Jack who built the House, the
+chief figures of "that sublime strain of immortal genius" called
+_Dickory Dock_, and the third Jack, Horner, eating a symbolic Christmas
+pie. At the date of _Melincourt_, in which this occurs, its even then
+admirable author was apt to shoot his arrows rather at a venture; and it
+may be hoped, without too much rashness, that he did not mean to speak
+disrespectfully of the "sublime strain of immortal genius" itself, but
+only of what he thought Wordsworth's corrupt following of that and
+similar things.
+
+Nevertheless, if he had lived a little longer, or if (for he lived quite
+long enough) he had been in the mind for such game, he might have found
+fresh varieties of it in certain more modern handlings of the same
+subject. Since the Brothers Grimm founded modern folklore, it has
+required considerable courage to approach nursery songs and nursery
+tales in any but a spirit of the severest "scientism," which I presume
+to be the proper form for the method of those who call themselves
+"scientists." We have not only had investigations--some of them by no
+means unfruitful or uninteresting investigations--into certain things
+which are, or may be, the originals of these artless compositions in
+history or in popular manners. We have not only had some of their queer
+verbal jingles twisted back again into what may have been an articulate
+and authentic meaning. I do not know that many of them have been made
+out to be sun-myths; but that yesterday popular, to-day rather
+discredited, system of exposition is very evidently as applicable to
+them as to anything else. The older variety of mystical and moral
+interpretation having gone out of fashion before they had emerged from
+the contempt of the learned, it has not been much applied to them,
+though the temptation is great, for, as King Charles observes in
+"Woodstock," most things in the world remind one of the tales of Mother
+Goose.
+
+But the most special attentions that nursery rhymes have received have,
+perhaps, taken the form of the elaborate and ingenious divisions
+attempted by Halliwell and others. Indeed, something of the kind has
+been so common that the absence here of anything similar may excite some
+surprise, and look like disrespect to a scientific age. The omission,
+however, is designed, and a reason or two may be rendered for it.
+Halliwell (to take the most generally known instance) has no less than
+seventeen compartments in which he stows remorselessly these "things
+that are old and pretty," to apply to them a phrase that Lamb loved.
+There are, it seems, historical nursery rhymes, literal nursery rhymes;
+nursery rhymes narrative, proverbial, scholastic, lyrical, riddlesome;
+rhymes dealing with charms, with gaffers and gammers, with games, with
+paradoxes, with lullabies, with jingles, with love and matrimony, with
+natural (I wish he had called it unnatural) history, with accumulative
+stories, with localities, with relics. It may be permitted to cry "Mercy
+on us," when one thinks of the poor little wildings, so full of nature
+and, if not ignorant of art, of an art so cunningly concealed, being
+subjected to the trimmings and torturings of the _Ars Topiaria_ after
+this fashion. The division is clearly arbitrary and non-natural; it is
+often what logicians very properly object to as a "cross"-division; it
+leads to the inclusion of many things which are not properly nursery
+rhymes at all; and it necessitates, or at least gives occasion to, a
+vast amount of idle talk. For instance, take King Arthur, this way, that
+way, which way you please: as a hero of history, as a great central
+figure of romance, or even (I grieve to say a learned friend of mine is
+wont to speak of him so) as a "West-Welsh thief." Are we called upon in
+the very slightest degree to connect any of these Arthurs with the
+artist of the bag-pudding? to discuss what was the material that Queen
+Guinevere preferred for frying, and to select the most probable
+"noblemen" from the Table Round? Does anybody, except as a rather
+ponderous joke, care to discuss whether King Cole was really father of
+Constantine's mother, and had anything to do with Colchester? Though it
+may be admitted that a "Colchester carpet-bag," that is to say, a very
+thick steak all but sliced through and stuffed with oysters, would
+probably not have been unacceptable to the monarch as a preliminary to
+the bowl.
+
+The simple fact seems to be, that one of Halliwell's
+partitions--"jingles"--will do for the whole seventeen, and do a great
+deal better than the other sixteen of them. It may be perfectly true
+that most of the things indicated in these class-names supplied, in this
+case and that, basis for the jingle, starting-points, texts, and so
+forth. But all genuine nursery rhymes (even in fragments such as
+"Martin Swart and his men, Sodledum [saddle them], sodledum," if it is
+genuine, and others where definite history comes in) have never become
+nursery rhymes until the historical fact has been practically forgotten
+by those who used them, and nothing but the metrical and musical
+attraction remains. Some of the alphabet and number rhymes may possibly
+(it is sad to have to confess it) have been composed with a deliberate
+purpose of instruction; but it is noticeable that these have never
+become quite the genuine thing, except in cases such as--
+
+ "Big A, little a, bouncing B,
+ The cat's in the cupboard, and she can't see,"
+
+where the subtle tendency to nonsense takes the weak intention of sense
+on its back as a fox does a chicken and runs right away with it. Again,
+it would be rash to say that it is impossible to make out popular
+customs and popular beliefs from these texts. But it is quite certain
+that they have for the most part left the customs and the beliefs a long
+way behind them, that these things are, to vary the metaphor, merely in
+palimpsest relation to the present purport and contents of the rhymes.
+
+Perhaps, therefore, while not grudging folklorists their perquisitions
+in this delightful region, and while acknowledging that there are many
+interesting things to be found out by them in it, we may be permitted to
+look at nursery rhymes from a rather different point of view. And from
+this point it will not, I think, be fanciful to see in them, to a great
+extent, the poetical appeal of sound as opposed to that of meaning
+expressed in its simplest and most unmistakable terms. We shall find in
+these pieces the two special pillars of all modern poetry, alliteration
+and rhyme, or at least assonance, which is only rhyme undeveloped. And
+we shall find something else, which I venture to call the attraction of
+the inarticulate. It is not necessary to take the cynical sense of the
+famous saying, that language was given to man to conceal his thoughts,
+in order to admit that in moments of more intense and genuine feeling,
+if not of thought, he does not as a rule use or at least confine himself
+to articulate speech. If the "little language" of mothers to babies be
+set down to a supposition that the object addressed does not understand,
+that will hardly explain the other "little language" of lovers to
+lovers, which has a tendency to be nearly as inarticulate as a
+cradle-song, and quite as corruptive of dictionary speech as a nursery
+rhyme. In the very stammering of rage there may be thought to be
+something more than a simple inability to choose between words; and in
+the moaning of sorrow something more than an inability to find suitable
+expression. All children--and children, as somebody (I forget who he
+was, but he was a wise man) has said, are usually very clever people
+till they get spoilt--fall naturally, long after they are quite able to
+express themselves as it is called rationally, into a sort of pleasant
+gibberish when they are alone and pleased, or even displeased. And I
+dare say that a fair number of very considerably grown-up folk, who have
+not only come to the legal years of discretion but to the poetical age
+of wisdom, do the like now and then.
+
+ "As one walks by oneself,
+ And talks to oneself,"
+
+by the seaside or on a lonely country road, it must be a not infrequent
+experience of most people that one frequently falls into pure jingle and
+nonsense-verse of the nursery kind. In fact, it must have happened to
+more people than one, or one thousand, by the malice of a sudden corner
+or the like, to have been caught doing so to their great confusion, and
+to the comfortable conviction of the other party that he has met with
+an escaped lunatic.
+
+I should myself, though I may not carry many people with me, go farther
+than this and say that this "attraction of the inarticulate," this
+allurement of mere sound and sequence, has a great deal more to do than
+is generally thought with the charm of the very highest poetry, and that
+no merely valuable thought presented without this accompaniment can
+possibly affect us as it does when it summons to its aid such concert of
+vowels and consonants as--
+
+ "Peace! peace!
+ Dost thou not see my baby at my breast
+ That sucks the nurse asleep?"
+
+or as--
+
+ "Quærens me sedisti lassus,
+ Redemisti crucem passus;
+ Tantus labor non sit cassus!"
+
+In the best nursery rhymes, as in the simpler and more genuine ballads
+which have so close a connection with them, we find this attraction of
+the inarticulate--this charm of pure sound, this utilising of
+alliteration and rhyme and assonance, and the cunning juxtaposition now
+of similar, now of contrary vowels--not in a passionate, but in a frank
+and simple form. Many of them probably, some of them certainly, had, as
+has been said, a definite meaning once, and we may attend to the
+folklorist as he expounds what it was or may have been; but for the most
+part they have very victoriously got the better of that meaning, have
+bid it, in their own lingo, "go to Spain," without the slightest
+meditation or back-thought whether Spain is the proper place for it or
+not. In that particular _locus classicus_ "Spain" rhymes to "rain," and
+that is not merely the chief and principal, but the absolutely
+all-sufficient thing. So, too, there is no doubt a most learned
+explanation of the jargon (variously given and spelt)--
+
+ "Hotum-potum, paradise tantum, perry-merry-dictum, domaree,"
+
+at which a friend of mine used to laugh consumedly, declaring that this
+cavalier coupling of "paradise _tantum_" "_only_ paradise," was the
+nicest thing he knew. But the people who mellowed it into that form, and
+recited it afterwards, never cared one scrap for the meaning. They had
+got it into a pleasant jingle of vowels, a desirable sequence of
+consonants, and a good swing of cadence, and that was enough. When
+"Curlylocks" is invited to be "mine" by the promise "thou shalt sew a
+fine seam," does anybody suppose that this housewifely operation was
+much more (it may have been a little more) of a bait to the Curlylocks
+of those days than to the Curlylocks of these? Not at all. "Sew" and
+"seam" went naturally together, they made a pleasing alliteration, and
+the latter word rhymed to "cream," of which the Curlylocks of all days
+has been not unusually fond.
+
+Not, of course, that there is not much wit and much wisdom, much
+picturesqueness and not a little pathos in our rhymes. All good men have
+justly admired these qualities in "Sing a Song of Sixpence" and
+"Ding-dong Bell," in "Margery Daw" and "Who Killed Cock Robin?" I rather
+suspect the wicked literary man of having more to do than genuine
+popular sentiment with the delightful progress and ending of "There was
+a Little Boy and a Little Girl." But the undoubtedly genuine notes are
+numerous enough and various enough, from that previously mentioned and
+admirable thrift of good King Arthur, or rather of Queen Guinevere (from
+whom, according to naughty romancers, we should have less expected it),
+to the sound common-sense of "Three Children;" from the decorative
+convention of "Little Boy Blue" to the arabesque and even grotesque of
+"Hey-diddle-diddle."
+
+But I shall still contend that the main, the pervading, the
+characteristic attraction of them lies in their musical accompaniment of
+purely senseless sound, in their rhythm, rhyme, jingle, refrain, and the
+like, in the simplicity and freshness of their modulated form. For thus
+they serve as anthems and doxologies to the goddess whom in this context
+it is not satirical to call "_Divine_ Nonsensia," who still in all lands
+and times condescends now and then to unbind the burden of meaning from
+the backs and brains of men, and lets them rejoice once more in pure,
+natural, senseless sound.

+
+ My lady Wind, my lady Wind,
+ Went round about the house to find
+ A chink to get her foot in:
+ She tried the key-hole in the door,
+ She tried the crevice in the floor,
+ And drove the chimney soot in.
+
+ And then one night when it was dark,
+ She blew up such a tiny spark,
+ That all the house was pothered:
+ From it she raised up such a flame,
+ As flamed away to Belting Lane,
+ And White Cross folks were smothered.
+
+ And thus when once, my little dears,
+ A whisper reaches itching ears,

+
+ Have you seen the old woman of Banbury Cross,
+ Who rode to the fair on the top of her horse?
+ And since her return she still tells, up and down,
+ Of the wonderful lady she saw when in town.
+ She has a small mirror in each of her eyes,
+ And her nose is a bellows of minnikin size;
+ There's a neat little drum fix'd in each of her ears,
+ Which beats a tattoo to whatever she hears.
+ She has in each jaw a fine ivory mill,
+ And day after day she keeps grinding it still.
+ Both an organ and flute in her small throat are placed,
+ And they are played by a steam engine worked in her breast.
+ But the wonder of all, in her mouth it is said,
+ She keeps a loud bell that might waken the dead;
+ And so frightened the woman, and startled the horse,
+ That they galloped full speed back to Banbury Cross.

+ _The Spider and the Fly_
+
+ "Will you walk into my parlour?" said the spider to the fly,--
+ "'Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever you did spy.
+ The way into my parlour is up a winding stair;
+ And I have many curious things to show you when you're there."
+ "Oh no, no," said the little fly; "to ask me is in vain;
+ For who goes up your winding stair can ne'er come down again."
+
+ "I'm sure you must be weary, dear, with soaring up so high;
+ Will you rest upon my little bed?" said the spider to the fly.
+ "There are pretty curtains drawn around; the sheets are fine and
+ thin;
+ And if you like to rest awhile, I'll snugly tuck you in!"
+ "Oh no, no," said the little fly; "for I've often heard it said,
+ They never, never wake again, who sleep upon your bed!"
+
+ Said the cunning spider to the fly--"Dear friend, what can I do
+ To prove the warm affection I've always felt for you?
+ I have within my pantry good store of all that's nice;
+ I'm sure you're very welcome--will you please to take a slice?"
+ "Oh no, no," said the little fly, "kind sir, that cannot be;
+ I've heard what's in your pantry, and I do not wish to see."
+
+ "Sweet creature," said the spider, "you're witty and you're wise;
+ How handsome are your gauzy wings, how brilliant are your eyes!
+ I have a little looking-glass upon my parlour shelf,
+ If you'll step in one moment, dear, you shall behold yourself."
+ "I thank you, gentle sir," she said, "for what you're pleased to
+ say,
+ And bidding you good-morning now, I'll call another day."
+
+ The spider turned him round about, and went into his den,
+ For well he knew the silly fly would soon come back again;
+ So he wove a subtle web in a little corner sly,
+ And set his table ready, to dine upon the fly.
+ Then he came out to his door again, and merrily did sing,--
+ "Come hither, hither, pretty fly, with the pearl and silver wing;
+ Your robes are green and purple--there's a crest upon your head!
+ Your eyes are like the diamond bright, but mine are dull as lead!"
+
+ Alas! alas! how very soon this silly little fly,
+ Hearing his wily, flattering words, came slowly flitting by.
+ With buzzing wings she hung aloft, then near and nearer drew,
+ Thinking only of her brilliant eyes, her green and purple hue--
+ Thinking only of her crested head--poor foolish thing! At last,
+ Up jumped the cunning spider, and fiercely held her fast!
+ He dragged her up his winding stair, into his dismal den,
+ Within his little parlour--but she ne'er came out again!
+
+ And now, dear little children, who may this story read,
+ To idle, silly flattering words, I pray you, ne'er give heed;
+ Unto an evil counsellor close heart, and ear, and eye.
+ And take a lesson from this tale of the Spider and the Fly.

+ _Old Mother Goose_
+
+ Old Mother Goose, when
+ She wanted to wander
+ Would ride through the air
+ On a very fine gander.
+
+ Mother Goose had a house,
+ 'Twas built in a wood,
+ Where an owl at the door
+ For sentinel stood.
+
+ She had a son Jack,
+ A plain-looking lad,
+ He is not very good,
+ Nor yet very bad.
+
+ She sent him to market,
+ A live goose he bought,
+ "Here, mother," says he,
+ "It will not go for nought."
+
+ Jack's goose and her gander,
+ Grew very fond;
+ They'd both eat together,
+ Or swim in one pond.
+
+ Jack found one morning,
+ As I have been told,
+ His goose had laid him
+ An egg of pure gold.
+
+ Jack ran to his mother,
+ The news for to tell,
+ She called him a good boy,
+ And said it was well.
+
+ Jack sold his gold egg
+ To a rogue of a Jew,
+ Who cheated him out of
+ The half of his due.
+
+ Then Jack went a courting,
+ A lady so gay,
+ As fair as the lily,
+ And sweet as the May.
+
+ The Jew and the Squire
+ Came behind his back,
+ And began to belabour
+ The sides of poor Jack,
+
+ Then old Mother Goose,
+ That instant came in,
+ And turned her son Jack
+ Into famed Harlequin.
+
+ She then with her wand,
+ Touched the lady so fine,
+ And turned her at once
+ Into sweet Columbine.
+
+ The gold egg into the sea
+ Was thrown then,--
+ When Jack jumped in,
+ And got the egg back again.
+
+ The Jew got the goose,
+ Which he vowed he would kill,
+ Resolving at once
+ His pockets to fill.
+
+ Jack's mother came in,
+ And caught the goose soon,
+ And mounting its back,
+ Flew up to the moon.

+ _The Babes in the Wood_
+
+ A Gentleman of good account
+ In Norfolk dwelt of late,
+ Whose wealth and riches did surmount
+ Most men of his estate.
+
+ Sore sick he was, and like to die,
+ No help his life could save;
+ His wife by him as sick did lie,
+ And both were near the grave.
+
+ No love between these two was lost:
+ Each to the other kind;
+ In love they lived, in love they died,
+ And left two babes behind.
+
+ Now, if the children chanced to die,
+ Ere they to age should come,
+ Their uncle should possess their wealth!
+ For so the will did run.
+
+ "Now, brother," said the dying man,
+ "Look to my children dear;
+ Be good unto my boy and girl,
+ No friends else have they here."
+
+ Their parents being dead and gone,
+ The children home he takes,
+ And brings them both unto his house,
+ Where much of them he makes.
+
+ He had not kept those pretty babes
+ A twelvemonth and a day,
+ When, for their wealth, he did devise
+ To make them both away.
+
+ He bargained with two ruffians bold,
+ Who were of savage mood,
+ That they should take the children twain,
+ And slay them in a wood.
+
+ They prate and prattle pleasantly,
+ While riding on the way,
+ To those their wicked uncle hired,
+ These lovely babes to slay:
+
+ So that the pretty speech they had,
+ Made the ruffians' heart relent;
+ And they that took the deed to do,
+ Full sorely did repent.
+
+ Yet one of them, more hard of heart,
+ Did vow to do his charge,
+ Because the wretch that hired him
+ Had paid him very large.
+
+ The other would not agree thereto,
+ So here they fell at strife;
+ With one another they did fight,
+ About the children's life.
+
+ [Illustration: "WENT WANDERING UP AND DOWN."]
+
+ And he that was of milder mood
+ Did slay the other there,
+ Within an unfrequented wood,
+ The babes did quake for fear!
+
+ He took the children by the hand,
+ While they for bread complain:
+ "Stay here," quoth he, "I'll bring ye bread,
+ When I do come again."
+
+ These pretty babes, with hand in hand,
+ Went wandering up and down;
+ But never more they saw the man
+ Approaching from the town.
+
+ Thus wandered these two pretty dears,
+ Till death did end their grief;
+ In one another's arms they died,
+ Poor babes! past all relief.
+
+ No burial these innocents
+ Of any man receives,
+ But Robin Redbreast lovingly
+ Did cover them with leaves.
+
+ The fellow that did take in hand
+ These children for to kill,
+ Was for a robbery judged to die,
+ As was God's blessed will:
+
+ And did confess the very truth,
+ The which is here expressed;
+ Their uncle died while he for debt
+ Did long in prison rest.

+
+ _History of John Gilpin_
+
+ John Gilpin was a citizen
+ Of credit and renown,
+ A train-band captain eke was he,
+ Of famous London town.
+
+ John Gilpin's spouse said to her dear,
+ "Though wedded we have been
+ These twice ten tedious years, yet we
+ No holiday have seen.
+
+ "To-morrow is our wedding-day,
+ And we will then repair
+ Unto the 'Bell' at Edmonton,
+ All in a chaise and pair.
+
+ "My sister, and my sister's child,
+ Myself, and children three
+ Will fill the chaise; so you must ride
+ On horseback after we."
+
+ He soon replied, "I do admire
+ Of womankind but one,
+ And you are she, my dearest dear,
+ Therefore it shall be done.
+
+ "I am a linendraper bold,
+ As all the world doth know,
+ And my good friend the calender
+ Will lend his horse to go."
+
+ Quoth Mrs. Gilpin, "That's well said;
+ And for that wine is dear,
+ We will be furnished with our own,
+ Which is both bright and clear."
+
+ John Gilpin kissed his losing wife,
+ O'erjoyed was he to find,
+ That though on pleasure she was bent,
+ She had a frugal mind.
+
+ The morning came, the chaise was brought,
+ But yet was not allowed
+ To drive up to the door, lest all
+ Should say that she was proud.
+
+ So three doors off the chaise was stayed,
+ Where they did all get in;
+ Six precious souls, and all agog
+ To dash through thick and thin.
+
+ Smack went the whip, round went the wheels,
+ Were never folks so glad!
+ The stones did rattle underneath,
+ As if Cheapside were mad.
+
+ John Gilpin at his horse's side
+ Seized fast the flowing mane,
+ And up he got, in haste to ride,
+ But soon came down again.
+
+ For saddletree scarce reached had he,
+ His journey to begin,
+ When, turning round his head, he saw
+ Three customers come in.
+
+ So down he came; for loss of time,
+ Although it grieved him sore,
+ Yet loss of pence, full well he knew,
+ Would trouble him much more.
+
+ 'Twas long before the customers
+ Were suited to their mind,
+ When Betty screaming came downstairs,
+ "The wine is left behind!"
+
+ "Good lack!" quoth he, "yet bring it me,
+ My leathern belt likewise,
+ In which I bear my trusty sword
+ When I do exercise."
+
+ Now Mistress Gilpin (careful soul!)
+ Had two stone bottles found,
+ To hold the liquor that she loved,
+ And keep it safe and sound.
+
+ Each bottle had a curling ear,
+ Through which the belt he drew,
+ And hung a bottle on each side,
+ To make his balance true.
+
+ Then over all, that he might be
+ Equipped from top to toe,
+ His long red cloak, well brushed and neat,
+ He manfully did throw.
+
+ Now see him mounted once again
+ Upon his nimble steed,
+ Full slowly pacing o'er the stones,
+ With caution and good heed.
+
+ But finding soon a smoother road
+ Beneath his well-shod feet,
+ The snorting beast began to trot,
+ Which galled him in his seat.
+
+ "So, fair and softly!" John he cried,
+ But John he cried in vain;
+ That trot became a gallop soon,
+ In spite of curb and rein.
+
+ So stooping down, as needs he must
+ Who cannot sit upright,
+ He grasped the mane with both his hands,
+ And eke with all his might.
+
+ His horse, who never in that sort
+ Had handled been before,
+ What thing upon his back had got,
+ Did wonder more and more.
+
+ Away went Gilpin, neck or nought;
+ Away went hat and wig;
+ He little dreamt, when he set out,
+ Of running such a rig.
+
+ The wind did blow, the cloak did fly
+ Like streamer long and gay,
+ Till, loop and button failing both,
+ At last it flew away.
+
+ Then might all people well discern
+ The bottles he had slung;
+ A bottle swinging at each side,
+ As hath been said or sung.
+
+ The dogs did bark, the children screamed.
+ Up flew the windows all;
+ And every soul cried out, "Well done!"
+ As loud as he could bawl.
+
+ Away went Gilpin--who but he?
+ His fame soon spread around:
+ "He carries weight! he rides a race!
+ 'Tis for a thousand pound!"
+
+ And still as fast as he drew near,
+ 'Twas wonderful to view
+ How in a trice the turnpike-men
+ Their gates wide open threw.
+
+ And now, as he went bowing down
+ His reeking head full low,
+ The bottles twain behind his back
+ Were shattered at a blow.
+
+ Down ran the wine into the road,
+ Most piteous to be seen,
+ Which made the horse's flanks to smoke
+ As they had basted been.
+
+ But still he seemed to carry weight,
+ With leathern girdle braced;
+ For all might see the bottle-necks
+ Still dangling at his waist.
+
+ Thus all through merry Islington
+ These gambols he did play,
+ Until he came unto the Wash
+ Of Edmonton so gay;
+
+ And there he threw the wash about
+ On both sides of the way,
+ Just like unto a trundling mop.
+ Or a wild goose at play.
+
+ At Edmonton his loving wife
+ From the balcony spied
+ Her tender husband, wondering much
+ To see how he did ride.
+
+ "Stop, stop, John Gilpin!--Here's the house!"
+ They all at once did cry;
+ "The dinner waits, and we are tired,"
+ Said Gilpin--"So am I!"
+
+ But yet his horse was not a whit
+ Inclined to tarry there;
+ For why?--his owner had a house
+ Full ten miles off, at Ware.
+
+ So like an arrow swift he flew,
+ Shot by an archer strong;
+ So did he fly--which brings me to
+ The middle of my song.
+
+ Away went Gilpin out of breath
+ And sore against his will,
+ Till at his friend the calender's.
+ His horse at last stood still.
+
+ The calender, amazed to see
+ His neighbour in such trim,
+ Laid down his pipe, flew to the gate,
+ And thus accosted him:
+
+ "What news? what news? your tidings tell;
+ Tell me you must and shall--
+ Say why bareheaded you are come,
+ Or why you come at all?"
+
+ Now Gilpin had a pleasant wit,
+ And loved a timely joke;
+ And thus unto the calender
+ In merry guise he spoke:
+
+ "I came because your horse would come:
+ And, if I well forebode,
+ My hat and wig will soon be here,
+ They are upon the road."
+
+ The calender, right glad to find
+ His friend in merry pin,
+ Returned him not a single word,
+ But to the house went in;
+
+ Whence straight he came with hat and wig,
+ A wig that flowed behind,
+ A hat not much the worse for wear,
+ Each comely in its kind.
+
+ He held them up, and in his turn
+ Thus showed his ready wit,
+ "My head is twice as big as yours,
+ They therefore needs must fit.
+
+ "But let me scrape the dirt away,
+ That hangs upon your face;
+ And stop and eat, for well you may
+ Be in a hungry case."
+
+ Said John, "It is my wedding-day,
+ And all the world would stare
+ If wife should dine at Edmonton,
+ And I should dine at Ware."
+
+ So turning to his horse, he said,
+ "I am in haste to dine;
+ 'Twas for your pleasure you came here,
+ You shall go back for mine."
+
+ Ah! luckless speech, and bootless boast!
+ For which he paid full dear;
+ For while he spake, a braying ass
+ Did sing most loud and clear;
+
+ Whereat his horse did snort, as he
+ Had heard a lion roar,
+ And galloped off with all his might,
+ As he had done before.
+
+ Away went Gilpin, and away
+ Went Gilpin's hat and wig:
+ He lost them sooner than at first,
+ For why--they were too big.
+
+ Now Mistress Gilpin, when she saw
+ Her husband posting down
+ Into the country far away,
+ She pulled out half-a-crown;
+
+ And thus unto the youth she said,
+ That drove them to the "Bell,"
+ "This shall be yours when you bring back
+ My husband safe and well."
+
+ The youth did ride, and soon did meet
+ John coming back amain;
+ Whom in a trice he tried to stop,
+ By catching at his rein;
+
+ But not performing what he meant,
+ And gladly would have done,
+ The frighted steed he frighted more,
+ And made him faster run.
+
+ Away went Gilpin, and away
+ Went postboy at his heels,
+ The postboy's horse right glad to miss
+ The lumbering of the wheels.
+
+ Six gentlemen upon the road,
+ Thus seeing Gilpin fly,
+ With postboy scampering in the rear,
+ They raised the hue and cry.
+
+ "Stop thief! stop thief! a highwayman!"
+ Not one of them was mute;
+ And all and each that passed that way
+ Did join in the pursuit.
+
+ And now the turnpike gates again
+ Flew open in short space;
+ The toll-men thinking, as before,
+ That Gilpin rode a race.
+
+ And so he did, and won it too,
+ For he got first to town;
+ Nor stopped till where he had got up,
+ He did again get down.
+
+ Now let us sing, "Long live the King,
+ And Gilpin, long live he;"
+ And when he next doth ride abroad,
+ May I be there to see.

+ So off he set with his opera hat,

+ "Pray, Mr. Rat, will you go with me,"

+
+ "Pray, Mr. Frog, will you give us a song?

+ But let it be something that's not very long."
+ With a rowley powley, gammon and spinach,

+ "Indeed, Mrs. Mouse," replied Mr. Frog,

+
+ But while they were all a merry-making,
+ Heigho, says Rowley,
+ A cat and her kittens came tumbling in.
+ With a rowley powley, gammon and spinach,
+ Heigho, says Anthony Rowley!
+
+ The cat she seized the rat by the crown;
+ Heigho, says Rowley,
+ The kittens they pulled the little mouse down.
+ With a rowley powley, gammon and spinach,
+ Heigho, says Anthony Rowley!
+
+ This put Mr. Frog in a terrible fright;
+ Heigho, says Rowley,
+ He took up his hat, and he wished them good-night.
+ With a rowley powley, gammon and spinach,
+ Heigho, says Anthony Rowley!
+
+ But as Froggy was crossing over a brook,
+ Heigho, says Rowley,
+ A lily-white duck came and gobbled him up.
+ With a rowley powley, gammon and spinach,

+ So there was an end of one, two, and three,

+ And ran through the town, the town, oh!
+
+ When he got to the top of the hill,
+ He blew his trumpet both loud and shrill,
+ For joy that he was safe
+ Through the town, oh!

+
+ Then the traveller in the dark
+ Thanks you for your tiny spark:
+ How could he see where to go,
+ If you did not twinkle so?
+
+ In the dark blue sky you keep,
+ Often through my curtains peep,
+ For you never shut your eye,
+ Till the sun is in the sky.
+
+ As your bright and tiny spark
+ Lights the traveller in the dark,
+ Though I know not what you are,
+ Twinkle, twinkle, little star.

+ _On Christmas eve I turned the spit_
+
+ On Christmas eve I turned the spit,
+ I burnt my fingers, I feel it yet;
+ The cock sparrow flew over the table,
+ The pot began to play with the ladle;
+ The ladle stood up like a naked man,
+ And vowed he'd fight the frying-pan;
+ The frying-pan behind the door
+ Said he never saw the like before;
+ And the kitchen clock I was going to wind,
+ Said he never saw the like behind.

+ Good people all, of every sort,

+ It cannot hold you long.
+
+ In Islington there was a man,
+ Of whom the world might say,
+ That still a Godly race he ran,
+ Whene'er he went to pray.
+
+ A kind and gentle heart he had,
+ To comfort friends and foes;
+ The naked every day he clad,
+ When he put on his clothes.
+
+ And in that town a dog was found:
+ As many dogs there be--
+ Both mongrel, puppy, whelp, and hound,
+ And curs of low degree.
+
+ This dog and man at first were friends,
+ But, when a pique began,
+ The dog, to gain some private ends,
+ Went mad, and bit the man.
+
+ Around from all the neighbouring streets
+ The wondering neighbours ran;
+ And swore the dog had lost his wits,
+ To bite so good a man.
+
+ The wound it seemed both sore and sad
+ To every Christian eye;
+ And while they swore the dog was mad,
+ They swore the man would die.
+
+ But soon a wonder came to light,
+ That showed the rogues they lied--
+ The man recovered of the bite;
+ The dog it was that died.
+
+
+ _There was an old woman_

+
+ The Pig is not a feeder nice,
+ The Squirrel loves a nut,
+ The Wolf would eat you in a trice,
+ The Buzzard's eyes are shut.
+ The Lark sings high up in the air,
+ The Linnet in the tree;

+
+ Oh, yes, the Peacock is more proud,
+ Because his tail has eyes;
+ The Lion roars so very loud,
+ He'd fill you with surprise.

+ _I had a little husband_
+
+ I had a little husband,
+ No bigger than my thumb;

+
+ I bought a little horse,
+ That galloped up and down;
+ I bridled him, and saddled him,
+ And sent him out of town.

+
+ Come take up your hats, and away let us haste,
+ To the Butterfly's Ball, and the Grasshopper's Feast.
+ The trumpeter, Gad-fly, has summoned the crew,
+ And the revels are now only waiting for you.
+
+ On the smooth shaven grass, by the side of a wood,
+ Beneath a broad oak which for ages had stood,
+ See the children of earth, and the tenants of air,
+ To an evening's amusement together repair.
+
+ And there came the Beetle so blind and so black,
+ Who carried the Emmet, his friend, on his back.
+ And there came the Gnat and the Dragonfly too,
+ With all their relations, green, orange, and blue.
+
+ And there came the Moth, with her plumage of down,
+ And the Hornet with jacket of yellow and brown;
+ And with him the Wasp, his companion, did bring,
+ But they promised that evening to lay by their sting.
+
+ Then the sly little Dormouse peeped out of his hole,
+ And led to the Feast his blind cousin the Mole:
+ And the Snail, with her horns peeping out of her shell,
+ Came, fatigued with the distance, the length of an ell.
+
+ A mushroom the table, and on it was spread
+ A water-dock leaf, which their table-cloth made.
+ The viands were various, to each of their taste,
+ And the Bee brought the honey to sweeten the feast.
+
+ With steps most majestic the Snail did advance,
+ And he promised the gazers a minuet to dance;
+ But they all laughed so loud that he drew in his head,
+ And went in his own little chamber to bed.
+
+ Then, as evening gave way to the shadows of night,
+ Their watchman, the Glow-worm, came out with his light.
+ So home let us hasten, while yet we can see,
+ For no watchman is waiting for you or for me.
+
+

+ When I was but a child.

+
+ I begged for my master,
+ And got him store of pelf;
+ And now, Jove be praised!
+ I'm begging for myself.
+ And a-begging we will go, we'll go, we'll go;
+ And a-begging we will go!
+
+ In a hollow tree
+ I live, and pay no rent;
+ Providence provides for me,
+ And I am well content.
+ And a-begging we will go, we'll go, we'll go;
+ And a-begging we will go!
+
+ Of all the occupations,
+ A beggar's life's the best;
+ For whene'er he's weary,
+ He'll lay him down and rest.
+ And a-begging we will go, we'll go, we'll go,
+ And a-begging we will go!
+
+ I fear no plots against me,
+ I live in open cell;
+ Then who would be a king,
+ When beggars live so well?
+ And a-begging we will go, we'll go, we'll go;
+ And a-begging we will go!

+ An old woman was sweeping her house, and she found a little crooked

+ will go to market, and buy a little pig."
+
+ As she was coming home, she came to a stile; but the pig would not
+ go over the stile.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met a dog. So she said to the
+ dog--
+
+ "Dog, dog, bite pig!
+ Pig won't get over the stile;
+ And I shan't get home to-night."
+
+ But the dog would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met a stick. So she said--
+
+ "Stick, stick, beat dog!
+ Dog won't bite pig;
+ Pig won't get over the stile;
+ And I shan't get home to-night."
+
+ But the stick would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met a fire. So she said--
+
+ "Fire, fire, burn stick!
+ Stick won't beat dog;
+ Dog won't bite pig;
+ Pig won't get over the stile;
+ And I shan't get home to-night."
+
+ But the fire would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met some water. So she said--
+
+ "Water, water, quench fire!
+ Fire won't burn stick;
+ Stick won't beat dog;
+ Dog won't bite pig;
+ Pig won't get over the stile;
+ And I shan't get home to-night."
+
+ But the water would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met an ox. So she said--
+
+ "Ox, ox, drink water!
+ Water won't quench fire;
+ Fire won't burn stick;
+ Stick won't beat dog;
+ Dog won't bite pig;
+ Pig won't get over the stile;

+ But the ox would not.
+

+ Water won't quench fire;

+ Dog won't bite pig;

+
+ But the butcher would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met a rope. So she said--
+
+ "Rope, rope, hang butcher!
+ Butcher won't kill ox;
+ Ox won't drink water;
+ Water won't quench fire;
+ Fire won't burn stick;
+ Stick won't beat dog;

+ Pig won't get over the stile;
+ And I shan't get home to-night."
+
+ But the rope would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met a rat. So she said--
+
+ "Rat, rat, gnaw rope!
+ Rope won't hang butcher;
+ Butcher won't kill ox;
+ Ox won't drink water;
+ Water won't quench fire;
+ Fire won't burn stick;
+ Stick won't beat dog;
+ Dog won't bite pig;
+ Pig won't get over the stile;
+ And I shan't get home to-night."
+
+ But the rat would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met a cat. So she said--
+
+ "Cat, cat, kill rat!
+ Rat won't gnaw rope;
+ Rope won't hang butcher;
+ Butcher won't kill ox;
+ Ox won't drink water;
+ Water won't quench fire;
+ Fire won't burn stick;
+ Stick won't beat dog;
+ Dog won't bite pig;
+ Pig won't get over the stile;
+ And I shan't get home to-night."
+
+ The cat said, "If you will give me a saucer of milk, I will kill the
+ rat."
+
+ So the old woman gave the cat the milk, and when she had lapped up
+ the milk--
+
+ The cat began to kill the rat;
+ The rat began to gnaw the rope;
+ The rope began to hang the butcher;
+ The butcher began to kill the ox;
+ The ox began to drink the water;
+ The water began to quench the fire;
+ The fire began to burn the stick;

+
+ Ah! Doctor Fox,
+ You are very cunning,

+
+ Why, Doctor Goose,
+ You're very wise,

+ _I had a little castle_
+
+ I had a little castle upon the sea-shore,
+ One half was water, the other was land;
+ I opened the castle door, and guess what I found,
+ I found a fair lady with a cup in her hand.
+ The cup was all gold, filled with wine,
+ "Drink, fair lady, and thou shalt be mine."

+ Cut them on Monday, you cut them for health;

+ Cut them on Thursday, a pair of new shoes;
+ Cut them on Friday, you cut them for sorrow;

+ Cut them on Sunday, and you'll have ill-fortune all through the

+
+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.

+
+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+
+<p class="caption">INTRODUCTION</p>
+
+<p>It is a good many years since Peacock, in one of those curiously
+ill-tempered and not particularly happy attacks on the Lake poets, with
+which he chose to diversify his earlier novels, conceived, as an
+ornament of "Mainchance Villa," a grand allegorical picture, depicting
+the most famous characters of English Nursery Tales, Rhymes,
+&amp;c.&mdash;Margery Daw, Jack and Jill, the other Jack who built the House, the
+chief figures of "that sublime strain of immortal genius" called
+<i>Dickory Dock</i>, and the third Jack, Horner, eating a symbolic Christmas
+pie. At the date of <i>Melincourt</i>, in which this occurs, its even then
+admirable author was apt to shoot his arrows rather at a venture; and it
+may be hoped, without too much rashness, that he did not mean to speak
+disrespectfully of the "sublime strain of immortal genius" itself, but
+only of what he thought Wordsworth's corrupt following of that and
+similar things.</p>
+
+<p>Nevertheless, if he had lived a little longer, or if (for he lived quite
+long enough) he had been in the mind for such game, he might have found
+fresh varieties of it in certain more modern handlings of the same
+<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_vi" id="Page_vi">[Pg vi]</a></span>subject. Since the Brothers Grimm founded modern folklore, it has
+required considerable courage to approach nursery songs and nursery
+tales in any but a spirit of the severest "scientism," which I presume
+to be the proper form for the method of those who call themselves
+"scientists." We have not only had investigations&mdash;some of them by no
+means unfruitful or uninteresting investigations&mdash;into certain things
+which are, or may be, the originals of these artless compositions in
+history or in popular manners. We have not only had some of their queer
+verbal jingles twisted back again into what may have been an articulate
+and authentic meaning. I do not know that many of them have been made
+out to be sun-myths; but that yesterday popular, to-day rather
+discredited, system of exposition is very evidently as applicable to
+them as to anything else. The older variety of mystical and moral
+interpretation having gone out of fashion before they had emerged from
+the contempt of the learned, it has not been much applied to them,
+though the temptation is great, for, as King Charles observes in
+"Woodstock," most things in the world remind one of the tales of Mother
+Goose.</p>
+
+<p>But the most special attentions that nursery rhymes have received have,
+perhaps, taken the form of the elaborate and ingenious divisions
+attempted by Halliwell and others. Indeed, something of the kind has
+been so common that the absence here of anything similar may excite some
+surprise, and look like disrespect to a scientific age. The omission,
+however, is designed, and a reason or two may be rendered for it.
+Halliwell (to take the most generally known instance) has no less than
+seventeen compartments in which he stows remorselessly these "things
+that are old and pretty," to apply to them a phrase that Lamb loved.
+There are, it seems, historical nursery rhymes, literal nursery rhymes;
+nursery rhymes narrative, proverbial, scholastic, lyrical, riddlesome;
+<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_vii" id="Page_vii">[Pg vii]</a></span>rhymes dealing with charms, with gaffers and gammers, with games, with
+paradoxes, with lullabies, with jingles, with love and matrimony, with
+natural (I wish he had called it unnatural) history, with accumulative
+stories, with localities, with relics. It may be permitted to cry "Mercy
+on us," when one thinks of the poor little wildings, so full of nature
+and, if not ignorant of art, of an art so cunningly concealed, being
+subjected to the trimmings and torturings of the <i>Ars Topiaria</i> after
+this fashion. The division is clearly arbitrary and non-natural; it is
+often what logicians very properly object to as a "cross"-division; it
+leads to the inclusion of many things which are not properly nursery
+rhymes at all; and it necessitates, or at least gives occasion to, a
+vast amount of idle talk. For instance, take King Arthur, this way, that
+way, which way you please: as a hero of history, as a great central
+figure of romance, or even (I grieve to say a learned friend of mine is
+wont to speak of him so) as a "West-Welsh thief." Are we called upon in
+the very slightest degree to connect any of these Arthurs with the
+artist of the bag-pudding? to discuss what was the material that Queen
+Guinevere preferred for frying, and to select the most probable
+"noblemen" from the Table Round? Does anybody, except as a rather
+ponderous joke, care to discuss whether King Cole was really father of
+Constantine's mother, and had anything to do with Colchester? Though it
+may be admitted that a "Colchester carpet-bag," that is to say, a very
+thick steak all but sliced through and stuffed with oysters, would
+probably not have been unacceptable to the monarch as a preliminary to
+the bowl.</p>
+
+<p>The simple fact seems to be, that one of Halliwell's
+partitions&mdash;"jingles"&mdash;will do for the whole seventeen, and do a great
+deal better than the other sixteen of them. It may be perfectly true
+that most of the things indicated in these class-names supplied, in this
+case and that, basis for the jingle, starting-points, texts, and so
+<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_viii" id="Page_viii">[Pg viii]</a></span>forth. But all genuine nursery rhymes (even in fragments such as
+"Martin Swart and his men, Sodledum [saddle them], sodledum," if it is
+genuine, and others where definite history comes in) have never become
+nursery rhymes until the historical fact has been practically forgotten
+by those who used them, and nothing but the metrical and musical
+attraction remains. Some of the alphabet and number rhymes may possibly
+(it is sad to have to confess it) have been composed with a deliberate
+purpose of instruction; but it is noticeable that these have never
+become quite the genuine thing, except in cases such as&mdash;</p>
+
+<p class="p6 noin">"Big A, little a, bouncing B,<br />
+The cat's in the cupboard, and she can't see,"</p>
+
+<p class="noin">where the subtle tendency to nonsense takes the weak intention of sense
+on its back as a fox does a chicken and runs right away with it. Again,
+it would be rash to say that it is impossible to make out popular
+customs and popular beliefs from these texts. But it is quite certain
+that they have for the most part left the customs and the beliefs a long
+way behind them, that these things are, to vary the metaphor, merely in
+palimpsest relation to the present purport and contents of the rhymes.</p>
+
+<p>Perhaps, therefore, while not grudging folklorists their perquisitions
+in this delightful region, and while acknowledging that there are many
+interesting things to be found out by them in it, we may be permitted to
+look at nursery rhymes from a rather different point of view. And from
+this point it will not, I think, be fanciful to see in them, to a great
+extent, the poetical appeal of sound as opposed to that of meaning
+expressed in its simplest and most unmistakable terms. We shall find in
+these pieces the two special pillars of all modern poetry, alliteration
+and rhyme, or at least assonance, which is only rhyme undeveloped. And
+we shall find something else, which I venture to call
+<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_ix" id="Page_ix">[Pg ix]</a></span>
+the attraction of
+the inarticulate. It is not necessary to take the cynical sense of the
+famous saying, that language was given to man to conceal his thoughts,
+in order to admit that in moments of more intense and genuine feeling,
+if not of thought, he does not as a rule use or at least confine himself
+to articulate speech. If the "little language" of mothers to babies be
+set down to a supposition that the object addressed does not understand,
+that will hardly explain the other "little language" of lovers to
+lovers, which has a tendency to be nearly as inarticulate as a
+cradle-song, and quite as corruptive of dictionary speech as a nursery
+rhyme. In the very stammering of rage there may be thought to be
+something more than a simple inability to choose between words; and in
+the moaning of sorrow something more than an inability to find suitable
+expression. All children&mdash;and children, as somebody (I forget who he
+was, but he was a wise man) has said, are usually very clever people
+till they get spoilt&mdash;fall naturally, long after they are quite able to
+express themselves as it is called rationally, into a sort of pleasant
+gibberish when they are alone and pleased, or even displeased. And I
+dare say that a fair number of very considerably grown-up folk, who have
+not only come to the legal years of discretion but to the poetical age
+of wisdom, do the like now and then.</p>
+
+<p class="p8 noin">"As one walks by oneself,<br />
+And talks to oneself,"</p>
+
+<p class="noin">by the seaside or on a lonely country road, it must be a not infrequent
+experience of most people that one frequently falls into pure jingle and
+nonsense-verse of the nursery kind. In fact, it must have happened to
+more people than one, or one thousand, by the malice of a sudden corner
+or the like, to have been caught doing so to their great confusion, and
+to the comfortable conviction<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_x" id="Page_x">[Pg x]</a></span> of the other party that he has met with
+an escaped lunatic.</p>
+
+<p>I should myself, though I may not carry many people with me, go farther
+than this and say that this "attraction of the inarticulate," this
+allurement of mere sound and sequence, has a great deal more to do than
+is generally thought with the charm of the very highest poetry, and that
+no merely valuable thought presented without this accompaniment can
+possibly affect us as it does when it summons to its aid such concert of
+vowels and consonants as&mdash;</p>
+<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 20em;">"Peace! peace!</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 12em;">Dost thou not see my baby at my breast</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 12em;">That sucks the nurse asleep?"</span><br />
+
+<p class="noin">or as&mdash;</p>
+
+<span style="margin-left: 12em;">"Qu&aelig;rens me sedisti lassus,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 12em;">Redemisti crucem passus;</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 12em;">Tantus labor non sit cassus!"</span><br />
+<br />
+<p>In the best nursery rhymes, as in the simpler and more genuine ballads
+which have so close a connection with them, we find this attraction of
+the inarticulate&mdash;this charm of pure sound, this utilising of
+alliteration and rhyme and assonance, and the cunning juxtaposition now
+of similar, now of contrary vowels&mdash;not in a passionate, but in a frank
+and simple form. Many of them probably, some of them certainly, had, as
+has been said, a definite meaning once, and we may attend to the
+folklorist as he expounds what it was or may have been; but for the most
+part they have very victoriously got the better of that meaning, have
+bid it, in their own lingo, "go to Spain," without the slightest
+meditation or back-thought whether Spain is the proper place for it or
+not. In that particular <i>locus classicus</i> "Spain" rhymes to "rain," and
+that is not merely the chief and principal, but the absolutely
+all-sufficient thing.<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_xi" id="Page_xi">[Pg xi]</a></span> So, too, there is no doubt a most learned
+explanation of the jargon (variously given and spelt)&mdash;</p>
+
+<p class="noin p4">"Hotum-potum, paradise tantum, perry-merry-dictum, domaree,"</p>
+
+<p>at which a friend of mine used to laugh consumedly, declaring that this
+cavalier coupling of "paradise <i>tantum</i>" "<i>only</i> paradise," was the
+nicest thing he knew. But the people who mellowed it into that form, and
+recited it afterwards, never cared one scrap for the meaning. They had
+got it into a pleasant jingle of vowels, a desirable sequence of
+consonants, and a good swing of cadence, and that was enough. When
+"Curlylocks" is invited to be "mine" by the promise "thou shalt sew a
+fine seam," does anybody suppose that this housewifely operation was
+much more (it may have been a little more) of a bait to the Curlylocks
+of those days than to the Curlylocks of these? Not at all. "Sew" and
+"seam" went naturally together, they made a pleasing alliteration, and
+the latter word rhymed to "cream," of which the Curlylocks of all days
+has been not unusually fond.</p>
+
+<p>Not, of course, that there is not much wit and much wisdom, much
+picturesqueness and not a little pathos in our rhymes. All good men have
+justly admired these qualities in "Sing a Song of Sixpence" and
+"Ding-dong Bell," in "Margery Daw" and "Who Killed Cock Robin?" I rather
+suspect the wicked literary man of having more to do than genuine
+popular sentiment with the delightful progress and ending of "There was
+a Little Boy and a Little Girl." But the undoubtedly genuine notes are
+numerous enough and various enough, from that previously mentioned and
+admirable thrift of good King Arthur, or rather of Queen Guinevere (from
+whom, according to naughty romancers, we should have less expected it),
+to the sound common-sense of "Three Children;" from<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_xii" id="Page_xii">[Pg xii]</a></span> the decorative
+convention of "Little Boy Blue" to the arabesque and even grotesque of
+"Hey-diddle-diddle."</p>
+
+<p>But I shall still contend that the main, the pervading, the
+characteristic attraction of them lies in their musical accompaniment of
+purely senseless sound, in their rhythm, rhyme, jingle, refrain, and the
+like, in the simplicity and freshness of their modulated form. For thus
+they serve as anthems and doxologies to the goddess whom in this context
+it is not satirical to call "<i>Divine</i> Nonsensia," who still in all lands
+and times condescends now and then to unbind the burden of meaning from
+the backs and brains of men, and lets them rejoice once more in pure,
+natural, senseless sound.</p>

+"'Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever you did spy.<br />
+The way into my parlour is up a winding stair;<br />
+And I have many curious things to show you when you're there."<br />
+"Oh no, no," said the little fly; "to ask me is in vain;<br />
+For who goes up your winding stair can ne'er come down again."<br />
+<br />
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_101" id="Page_101">[Pg 101]</a></span>
+"I'm sure you must be weary, dear, with soaring up so high;<br />
+Will you rest upon my little bed?" said the spider to the fly.<br />
+"There are pretty curtains drawn around; the sheets are fine and thin;<br />
+And if you like to rest awhile, I'll snugly tuck you in!"<br />
+"Oh no, no," said the little fly; "for I've often heard it said,<br />
+They never, never wake again, who sleep upon your bed!"<br />
+<br />
+Said the cunning spider to the fly&mdash;"Dear friend, what can I do<br />
+To prove the warm affection I've always felt for you?<br />
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_102" id="Page_102">[Pg 102]</a></span>
+I have within my pantry good store of all that's nice;<br />
+I'm sure you're very welcome&mdash;will you please to take a slice?"<br />
+"Oh no, no," said the little fly, "kind sir, that cannot be;<br />
+I've heard what's in your pantry, and I do not wish to see."<br />
+<br />
+"Sweet creature," said the spider, "you're witty and you're wise;<br />
+How handsome are your gauzy wings, how brilliant are your eyes!<br />
+I have a little looking-glass upon my parlour shelf,<br />
+If you'll step in one moment, dear, you shall behold yourself."<br />
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_103" id="Page_103">[Pg 103]</a></span>
+"I thank you, gentle sir," she said, "for what you're pleased to say,<br />
+And bidding you good-morning now, I'll call another day."<br />
+<br />
+The spider turned him round about, and went into his den,<br />
+For well he knew the silly fly would soon come back again;<br />
+So he wove a subtle web in a little corner sly,<br />
+And set his table ready, to dine upon the fly.<br />
+Then he came out to his door again, and merrily did sing,&mdash;<br />
+"Come hither, hither, pretty fly, with the pearl and silver wing;<br />
+Your robes are green and purple&mdash;there's a crest upon your head!<br />
+Your eyes are like the diamond bright, but mine are dull as lead!"<br />
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_104" id="Page_104">[Pg 104]</a></span>
+<br />
+Alas! alas! how very soon this silly little fly,<br />
+Hearing his wily, flattering words, came slowly flitting by.<br />
+With buzzing wings she hung aloft, then near and nearer drew,<br />
+Thinking only of her brilliant eyes, her green and purple hue&mdash;<br />
+Thinking only of her crested head&mdash;poor foolish thing! At last,<br />
+Up jumped the cunning spider, and fiercely held her fast!<br />
+He dragged her up his winding stair, into his dismal den,<br />
+Within his little parlour&mdash;but she ne'er came out again!<br />
+<br />
+And now, dear little children, who may this story read,<br />

+
+<p class="p7 m16"><b>OHN</b> Gilpin was a citizen<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Of credit and renown,</span><br />
+A train-band captain eke was he,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Of famous London town.</span><br />
+<br />
+John Gilpin's spouse said to her dear,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">"Though wedded we have been</span><br />
+These twice ten tedious years, yet we<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">No holiday have seen.</span><br />
+<br />
+"To-morrow is our wedding-day,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">And we will then repair</span><br />
+Unto the 'Bell' at Edmonton,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">All in a chaise and pair.</span><br />
+<br />
+"My sister, and my sister's child,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Myself, and children three</span><br />
+Will fill the chaise; so you must ride<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">On horseback after we."</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_151" id="Page_151">[Pg 151]</a></span>
+He soon replied, "I do admire<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Of womankind but one,</span><br />
+And you are she, my dearest dear,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Therefore it shall be done.</span><br />
+<br />
+"I am a linendraper bold,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">As all the world doth know,</span><br />
+And my good friend the calender<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Will lend his horse to go."</span><br />
+<br />
+Quoth Mrs. Gilpin, "That's well said;<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">And for that wine is dear,</span><br />
+We will be furnished with our own,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Which is both bright and clear."</span><br />
+<br />
+John Gilpin kissed his losing wife,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">O'erjoyed was he to find,</span><br />
+That though on pleasure she was bent,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">She had a frugal mind.</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_152" id="Page_152">[Pg 152]</a></span>
+
+The morning came, the chaise was brought,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">But yet was not allowed</span><br />
+To drive up to the door, lest all<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Should say that she was proud.</span><br />
+<br />
+So three doors off the chaise was stayed,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Where they did all get in;</span><br />
+Six precious souls, and all agog<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">To dash through thick and thin.</span><br />
+<br />
+Smack went the whip, round went the wheels,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Were never folks so glad!</span><br />
+The stones did rattle underneath,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">As if Cheapside were mad.</span><br />
+<br />
+John Gilpin at his horse's side<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Seized fast the flowing mane,</span><br />
+And up he got, in haste to ride,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">But soon came down again.</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_153" id="Page_153">[Pg 153]</a></span>
+
+For saddletree scarce reached had he,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">His journey to begin,</span><br />
+When, turning round his head, he saw<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Three customers come in.</span><br />
+<br />
+So down he came; for loss of time,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Although it grieved him sore,</span><br />
+Yet loss of pence, full well he knew,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Would trouble him much more.</span><br />
+<br />
+'Twas long before the customers<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Were suited to their mind,</span><br />
+When Betty screaming came downstairs,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">"The wine is left behind!"</span><br />
+<br />
+"Good lack!" quoth he, "yet bring it me,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">My leathern belt likewise,</span><br />
+In which I bear my trusty sword<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">When I do exercise."</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_154" id="Page_154">[Pg 154]</a></span>
+
+Now Mistress Gilpin (careful soul!)<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Had two stone bottles found,</span><br />
+To hold the liquor that she loved,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">And keep it safe and sound.</span><br />
+<br />
+Each bottle had a curling ear,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Through which the belt he drew,</span><br />
+And hung a bottle on each side,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">To make his balance true.</span><br />
+<br />
+Then over all, that he might be<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Equipped from top to toe,</span><br />
+His long red cloak, well brushed and neat,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">He manfully did throw.</span><br />
+<br />
+Now see him mounted once again<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Upon his nimble steed,</span><br />
+Full slowly pacing o'er the stones,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">With caution and good heed.</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_155" id="Page_155">[Pg 155]</a></span>
+
+But finding soon a smoother road<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Beneath his well-shod feet,</span><br />
+The snorting beast began to trot,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Which galled him in his seat.</span><br />
+<br />
+"So, fair and softly!" John he cried,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">But John he cried in vain;</span><br />
+That trot became a gallop soon,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">In spite of curb and rein.</span><br />
+<br />
+So stooping down, as needs he must<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Who cannot sit upright,</span><br />
+He grasped the mane with both his hands,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">And eke with all his might.</span><br />
+<br />
+His horse, who never in that sort<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Had handled been before,</span><br />
+What thing upon his back had got,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Did wonder more and more.</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_156" id="Page_156">[Pg 156]</a></span>
+
+Away went Gilpin, neck or nought;<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Away went hat and wig;</span><br />
+He little dreamt, when he set out,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Of running such a rig.</span><br />
+<br />
+The wind did blow, the cloak did fly<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Like streamer long and gay,</span><br />
+Till, loop and button failing both,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">At last it flew away.</span><br />
+<br />
+Then might all people well discern<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">The bottles he had slung;</span><br />
+A bottle swinging at each side,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">As hath been said or sung.</span><br />
+<br />
+The dogs did bark, the children screamed.<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Up flew the windows all;</span><br />
+And every soul cried out, "Well done!"<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">As loud as he could bawl.</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_157" id="Page_157">[Pg 157]</a></span>
+
+Away went Gilpin&mdash;who but he?<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">His fame soon spread around:</span><br />
+"He carries weight! he rides a race!<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">'Tis for a thousand pound!"</span><br />
+<br />
+And still as fast as he drew near,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">'Twas wonderful to view</span><br />
+How in a trice the turnpike-men<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Their gates wide open threw.</span><br />
+<br />
+And now, as he went bowing down<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">His reeking head full low,</span><br />
+The bottles twain behind his back<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Were shattered at a blow.</span><br />
+<br />
+Down ran the wine into the road,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Most piteous to be seen,</span><br />
+Which made the horse's flanks to smoke<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">As they had basted been.</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_158" id="Page_158">[Pg 158]</a></span>
+But still he seemed to carry weight,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">With leathern girdle braced;</span><br />
+For all might see the bottle-necks<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Still dangling at his waist.</span><br />
+<br />
+Thus all through merry Islington<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">These gambols he did play,</span><br />
+Until he came unto the Wash<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Of Edmonton so gay;</span><br />
+<br />
+And there he threw the wash about<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">On both sides of the way,</span><br />
+Just like unto a trundling mop.<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Or a wild goose at play.</span><br />
+<br />
+At Edmonton his loving wife<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">From the balcony spied</span><br />
+Her tender husband, wondering much<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">To see how he did ride.</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_159" id="Page_159">[Pg 159]</a></span>
+
+"Stop, stop, John Gilpin!&mdash;Here's the house!"<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">They all at once did cry;</span><br />
+"The dinner waits, and we are tired,"<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Said Gilpin&mdash;"So am I!"</span><br />
+<br />
+But yet his horse was not a whit<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Inclined to tarry there;</span><br />
+For why?&mdash;his owner had a house<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Full ten miles off, at Ware.</span><br />
+<br />
+So like an arrow swift he flew,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Shot by an archer strong;</span><br />
+So did he fly&mdash;which brings me to<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">The middle of my song.</span><br />
+<br />
+Away went Gilpin out of breath<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">And sore against his will,</span><br />
+Till at his friend the calender's.<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">His horse at last stood still.</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_160" id="Page_160">[Pg 160]</a></span>
+
+The calender, amazed to see<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">His neighbour in such trim,</span><br />
+Laid down his pipe, flew to the gate,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">And thus accosted him:</span><br />
+<br />
+"What news? what news? your tidings tell;<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Tell me you must and shall&mdash;</span><br />
+Say why bareheaded you are come,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Or why you come at all?"</span><br />
+<br />
+Now Gilpin had a pleasant wit,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">And loved a timely joke;</span><br />
+And thus unto the calender<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">In merry guise he spoke:</span><br />
+<br />
+"I came because your horse would come:<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">And, if I well forebode,</span><br />
+My hat and wig will soon be here,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">They are upon the road."</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_161" id="Page_161">[Pg 161]</a></span>
+
+The calender, right glad to find<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">His friend in merry pin,</span><br />
+Returned him not a single word,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">But to the house went in;</span><br />
+<br />
+Whence straight he came with hat and wig,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">A wig that flowed behind,</span><br />
+A hat not much the worse for wear,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Each comely in its kind.</span><br />
+<br />
+He held them up, and in his turn<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Thus showed his ready wit,</span><br />
+"My head is twice as big as yours,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">They therefore needs must fit.</span><br />
+<br />
+"But let me scrape the dirt away,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">That hangs upon your face;</span><br />
+And stop and eat, for well you may<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Be in a hungry case."</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_162" id="Page_162">[Pg 162]</a></span>
+
+Said John, "It is my wedding-day,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">And all the world would stare</span><br />
+If wife should dine at Edmonton,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">And I should dine at Ware."</span><br />
+<br />
+So turning to his horse, he said,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">"I am in haste to dine;</span><br />
+'Twas for your pleasure you came here,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">You shall go back for mine."</span><br />
+<br />
+Ah! luckless speech, and bootless boast!<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">For which he paid full dear;</span><br />
+For while he spake, a braying ass<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Did sing most loud and clear;</span><br />
+<br />
+Whereat his horse did snort, as he<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Had heard a lion roar,</span><br />
+And galloped off with all his might,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">As he had done before.</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_163" id="Page_163">[Pg 163]</a></span>
+
+Away went Gilpin, and away<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Went Gilpin's hat and wig:</span><br />
+He lost them sooner than at first,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">For why&mdash;they were too big.</span><br />
+<br />
+Now Mistress Gilpin, when she saw<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Her husband posting down</span><br />
+Into the country far away,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">She pulled out half-a-crown;</span><br />
+<br />
+And thus unto the youth she said,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">That drove them to the "Bell,"</span><br />
+"This shall be yours when you bring back<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">My husband safe and well."</span><br />
+<br />
+The youth did ride, and soon did meet<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">John coming back amain;</span><br />
+Whom in a trice he tried to stop,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">By catching at his rein;</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_164" id="Page_164">[Pg 164]</a></span>
+But not performing what he meant,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">And gladly would have done,</span><br />
+The frighted steed he frighted more,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">And made him faster run.</span><br />
+<br />
+Away went Gilpin, and away<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Went postboy at his heels,</span><br />
+The postboy's horse right glad to miss<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">The lumbering of the wheels.</span><br />
+<br />
+Six gentlemen upon the road,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Thus seeing Gilpin fly,</span><br />
+With postboy scampering in the rear,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">They raised the hue and cry.</span><br />
+<br />
+"Stop thief! stop thief! a highwayman!"<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Not one of them was mute;</span><br />
+And all and each that passed that way<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Did join in the pursuit.</span><br />
+
+<br />
+
+<span class="pagelarge"><a name="Page_165" id="Page_165">[Pg 165]</a></span>
+
+And now the turnpike gates again<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">Flew open in short space;</span><br />
+The toll-men thinking, as before,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">That Gilpin rode a race.</span><br />
+<br />
+And so he did, and won it too,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">For he got first to town;</span><br />
+Nor stopped till where he had got up,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">He did again get down.</span><br />
+<br />
+Now let us sing, "Long live the King,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">And Gilpin, long live he;"</span><br />
+And when he next doth ride abroad,<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 1em;">May I be there to see.</span></p>

+electronic works
+
+1.A. By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg-tm

+and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
+(trademark/copyright) agreement. If you do not agree to abide by all
+the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy
+all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your possession.
+If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound by the
+terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the person or
+entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.
+
+1.B. "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark. It may only be
+used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
+even without complying with the full terms of this agreement. See
+paragraph 1.C below. There are a lot of things you can do with Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement
+and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works. See paragraph 1.E below.
+
+1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"
+or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States. If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work. You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently

+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges. If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.

+1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.

+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5. Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6. You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form. However, if you provide access to or

+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form. Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.

+ you already use to calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is
+ owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+ has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+ Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments
+ must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+ prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax
+ returns. Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and

+ License. You must require such a user to return or
+ destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+ and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+ Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+ money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+ electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days

+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.

+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.

+
+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,

+
+ [Illustration: INTRODUCTION]
+
+It is a good many years since Peacock, in one of those curiously
+ill-tempered and not particularly happy attacks on the Lake poets, with
+which he chose to diversify his earlier novels, conceived, as an
+ornament of "Mainchance Villa," a grand allegorical picture, depicting
+the most famous characters of English Nursery Tales, Rhymes,
+&c.--Margery Daw, Jack and Jill, the other Jack who built the House, the
+chief figures of "that sublime strain of immortal genius" called
+_Dickory Dock_, and the third Jack, Horner, eating a symbolic Christmas
+pie. At the date of _Melincourt_, in which this occurs, its even then
+admirable author was apt to shoot his arrows rather at a venture; and it
+may be hoped, without too much rashness, that he did not mean to speak
+disrespectfully of the "sublime strain of immortal genius" itself, but
+only of what he thought Wordsworth's corrupt following of that and
+similar things.
+
+Nevertheless, if he had lived a little longer, or if (for he lived quite
+long enough) he had been in the mind for such game, he might have found
+fresh varieties of it in certain more modern handlings of the same
+subject. Since the Brothers Grimm founded modern folklore, it has
+required considerable courage to approach nursery songs and nursery
+tales in any but a spirit of the severest "scientism," which I presume
+to be the proper form for the method of those who call themselves
+"scientists." We have not only had investigations--some of them by no
+means unfruitful or uninteresting investigations--into certain things
+which are, or may be, the originals of these artless compositions in
+history or in popular manners. We have not only had some of their queer
+verbal jingles twisted back again into what may have been an articulate
+and authentic meaning. I do not know that many of them have been made
+out to be sun-myths; but that yesterday popular, to-day rather
+discredited, system of exposition is very evidently as applicable to
+them as to anything else. The older variety of mystical and moral
+interpretation having gone out of fashion before they had emerged from
+the contempt of the learned, it has not been much applied to them,
+though the temptation is great, for, as King Charles observes in
+"Woodstock," most things in the world remind one of the tales of Mother
+Goose.
+
+But the most special attentions that nursery rhymes have received have,
+perhaps, taken the form of the elaborate and ingenious divisions
+attempted by Halliwell and others. Indeed, something of the kind has
+been so common that the absence here of anything similar may excite some
+surprise, and look like disrespect to a scientific age. The omission,
+however, is designed, and a reason or two may be rendered for it.
+Halliwell (to take the most generally known instance) has no less than
+seventeen compartments in which he stows remorselessly these "things
+that are old and pretty," to apply to them a phrase that Lamb loved.
+There are, it seems, historical nursery rhymes, literal nursery rhymes;
+nursery rhymes narrative, proverbial, scholastic, lyrical, riddlesome;
+rhymes dealing with charms, with gaffers and gammers, with games, with
+paradoxes, with lullabies, with jingles, with love and matrimony, with
+natural (I wish he had called it unnatural) history, with accumulative
+stories, with localities, with relics. It may be permitted to cry "Mercy
+on us," when one thinks of the poor little wildings, so full of nature
+and, if not ignorant of art, of an art so cunningly concealed, being
+subjected to the trimmings and torturings of the _Ars Topiaria_ after
+this fashion. The division is clearly arbitrary and non-natural; it is
+often what logicians very properly object to as a "cross"-division; it
+leads to the inclusion of many things which are not properly nursery
+rhymes at all; and it necessitates, or at least gives occasion to, a
+vast amount of idle talk. For instance, take King Arthur, this way, that
+way, which way you please: as a hero of history, as a great central
+figure of romance, or even (I grieve to say a learned friend of mine is
+wont to speak of him so) as a "West-Welsh thief." Are we called upon in
+the very slightest degree to connect any of these Arthurs with the
+artist of the bag-pudding? to discuss what was the material that Queen
+Guinevere preferred for frying, and to select the most probable
+"noblemen" from the Table Round? Does anybody, except as a rather
+ponderous joke, care to discuss whether King Cole was really father of
+Constantine's mother, and had anything to do with Colchester? Though it
+may be admitted that a "Colchester carpet-bag," that is to say, a very
+thick steak all but sliced through and stuffed with oysters, would
+probably not have been unacceptable to the monarch as a preliminary to
+the bowl.
+
+The simple fact seems to be, that one of Halliwell's
+partitions--"jingles"--will do for the whole seventeen, and do a great
+deal better than the other sixteen of them. It may be perfectly true
+that most of the things indicated in these class-names supplied, in this
+case and that, basis for the jingle, starting-points, texts, and so
+forth. But all genuine nursery rhymes (even in fragments such as
+"Martin Swart and his men, Sodledum [saddle them], sodledum," if it is
+genuine, and others where definite history comes in) have never become
+nursery rhymes until the historical fact has been practically forgotten
+by those who used them, and nothing but the metrical and musical
+attraction remains. Some of the alphabet and number rhymes may possibly
+(it is sad to have to confess it) have been composed with a deliberate
+purpose of instruction; but it is noticeable that these have never
+become quite the genuine thing, except in cases such as--
+
+ "Big A, little a, bouncing B,
+ The cat's in the cupboard, and she can't see,"
+
+where the subtle tendency to nonsense takes the weak intention of sense
+on its back as a fox does a chicken and runs right away with it. Again,
+it would be rash to say that it is impossible to make out popular
+customs and popular beliefs from these texts. But it is quite certain
+that they have for the most part left the customs and the beliefs a long
+way behind them, that these things are, to vary the metaphor, merely in
+palimpsest relation to the present purport and contents of the rhymes.
+
+Perhaps, therefore, while not grudging folklorists their perquisitions
+in this delightful region, and while acknowledging that there are many
+interesting things to be found out by them in it, we may be permitted to
+look at nursery rhymes from a rather different point of view. And from
+this point it will not, I think, be fanciful to see in them, to a great
+extent, the poetical appeal of sound as opposed to that of meaning
+expressed in its simplest and most unmistakable terms. We shall find in
+these pieces the two special pillars of all modern poetry, alliteration
+and rhyme, or at least assonance, which is only rhyme undeveloped. And
+we shall find something else, which I venture to call the attraction of
+the inarticulate. It is not necessary to take the cynical sense of the
+famous saying, that language was given to man to conceal his thoughts,
+in order to admit that in moments of more intense and genuine feeling,
+if not of thought, he does not as a rule use or at least confine himself
+to articulate speech. If the "little language" of mothers to babies be
+set down to a supposition that the object addressed does not understand,
+that will hardly explain the other "little language" of lovers to
+lovers, which has a tendency to be nearly as inarticulate as a
+cradle-song, and quite as corruptive of dictionary speech as a nursery
+rhyme. In the very stammering of rage there may be thought to be
+something more than a simple inability to choose between words; and in
+the moaning of sorrow something more than an inability to find suitable
+expression. All children--and children, as somebody (I forget who he
+was, but he was a wise man) has said, are usually very clever people
+till they get spoilt--fall naturally, long after they are quite able to
+express themselves as it is called rationally, into a sort of pleasant
+gibberish when they are alone and pleased, or even displeased. And I
+dare say that a fair number of very considerably grown-up folk, who have
+not only come to the legal years of discretion but to the poetical age
+of wisdom, do the like now and then.
+
+ "As one walks by oneself,
+ And talks to oneself,"
+
+by the seaside or on a lonely country road, it must be a not infrequent
+experience of most people that one frequently falls into pure jingle and
+nonsense-verse of the nursery kind. In fact, it must have happened to
+more people than one, or one thousand, by the malice of a sudden corner
+or the like, to have been caught doing so to their great confusion, and
+to the comfortable conviction of the other party that he has met with
+an escaped lunatic.
+
+I should myself, though I may not carry many people with me, go farther
+than this and say that this "attraction of the inarticulate," this
+allurement of mere sound and sequence, has a great deal more to do than
+is generally thought with the charm of the very highest poetry, and that
+no merely valuable thought presented without this accompaniment can
+possibly affect us as it does when it summons to its aid such concert of
+vowels and consonants as--
+
+ "Peace! peace!
+ Dost thou not see my baby at my breast
+ That sucks the nurse asleep?"
+
+or as--
+
+ "Quaerens me sedisti lassus,
+ Redemisti crucem passus;
+ Tantus labor non sit cassus!"
+
+In the best nursery rhymes, as in the simpler and more genuine ballads
+which have so close a connection with them, we find this attraction of
+the inarticulate--this charm of pure sound, this utilising of
+alliteration and rhyme and assonance, and the cunning juxtaposition now
+of similar, now of contrary vowels--not in a passionate, but in a frank
+and simple form. Many of them probably, some of them certainly, had, as
+has been said, a definite meaning once, and we may attend to the
+folklorist as he expounds what it was or may have been; but for the most
+part they have very victoriously got the better of that meaning, have
+bid it, in their own lingo, "go to Spain," without the slightest
+meditation or back-thought whether Spain is the proper place for it or
+not. In that particular _locus classicus_ "Spain" rhymes to "rain," and
+that is not merely the chief and principal, but the absolutely
+all-sufficient thing. So, too, there is no doubt a most learned
+explanation of the jargon (variously given and spelt)--
+
+ "Hotum-potum, paradise tantum, perry-merry-dictum, domaree,"
+
+at which a friend of mine used to laugh consumedly, declaring that this
+cavalier coupling of "paradise _tantum_" "_only_ paradise," was the
+nicest thing he knew. But the people who mellowed it into that form, and
+recited it afterwards, never cared one scrap for the meaning. They had
+got it into a pleasant jingle of vowels, a desirable sequence of
+consonants, and a good swing of cadence, and that was enough. When
+"Curlylocks" is invited to be "mine" by the promise "thou shalt sew a
+fine seam," does anybody suppose that this housewifely operation was
+much more (it may have been a little more) of a bait to the Curlylocks
+of those days than to the Curlylocks of these? Not at all. "Sew" and
+"seam" went naturally together, they made a pleasing alliteration, and
+the latter word rhymed to "cream," of which the Curlylocks of all days
+has been not unusually fond.
+
+Not, of course, that there is not much wit and much wisdom, much
+picturesqueness and not a little pathos in our rhymes. All good men have
+justly admired these qualities in "Sing a Song of Sixpence" and
+"Ding-dong Bell," in "Margery Daw" and "Who Killed Cock Robin?" I rather
+suspect the wicked literary man of having more to do than genuine
+popular sentiment with the delightful progress and ending of "There was
+a Little Boy and a Little Girl." But the undoubtedly genuine notes are
+numerous enough and various enough, from that previously mentioned and
+admirable thrift of good King Arthur, or rather of Queen Guinevere (from
+whom, according to naughty romancers, we should have less expected it),
+to the sound common-sense of "Three Children;" from the decorative
+convention of "Little Boy Blue" to the arabesque and even grotesque of
+"Hey-diddle-diddle."
+
+But I shall still contend that the main, the pervading, the
+characteristic attraction of them lies in their musical accompaniment of
+purely senseless sound, in their rhythm, rhyme, jingle, refrain, and the
+like, in the simplicity and freshness of their modulated form. For thus
+they serve as anthems and doxologies to the goddess whom in this context
+it is not satirical to call "_Divine_ Nonsensia," who still in all lands
+and times condescends now and then to unbind the burden of meaning from
+the backs and brains of men, and lets them rejoice once more in pure,
+natural, senseless sound.

+ Went round about the house to find

+ And drove the chimney soot in.
+
+ And then one night when it was dark,
+ She blew up such a tiny spark,
+ That all the house was pothered:
+ From it she raised up such a flame,
+ As flamed away to Belting Lane,
+ And White Cross folks were smothered.
+

+ Who rode to the fair on the top of her horse?
+ And since her return she still tells, up and down,
+ Of the wonderful lady she saw when in town.
+ She has a small mirror in each of her eyes,
+ And her nose is a bellows of minnikin size;
+ There's a neat little drum fix'd in each of her ears,
+ Which beats a tattoo to whatever she hears.
+ She has in each jaw a fine ivory mill,
+ And day after day she keeps grinding it still.
+ Both an organ and flute in her small throat are placed,
+ And they are played by a steam engine worked in her breast.
+ But the wonder of all, in her mouth it is said,
+ She keeps a loud bell that might waken the dead;
+ And so frightened the woman, and startled the horse,
+ That they galloped full speed back to Banbury Cross.

+ There was a man, and he had naught,
+ And robbers came to rob him;

+
+ But he got down on t'other side,

+ _The Spider and the Fly_
+
+ "Will you walk into my parlour?" said the spider to the fly,--
+ "'Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever you did spy.
+ The way into my parlour is up a winding stair;
+ And I have many curious things to show you when you're there."
+ "Oh no, no," said the little fly; "to ask me is in vain;
+ For who goes up your winding stair can ne'er come down again."
+
+ "I'm sure you must be weary, dear, with soaring up so high;
+ Will you rest upon my little bed?" said the spider to the fly.
+ "There are pretty curtains drawn around; the sheets are fine and
+ thin;
+ And if you like to rest awhile, I'll snugly tuck you in!"
+ "Oh no, no," said the little fly; "for I've often heard it said,
+ They never, never wake again, who sleep upon your bed!"
+
+ Said the cunning spider to the fly--"Dear friend, what can I do
+ To prove the warm affection I've always felt for you?
+ I have within my pantry good store of all that's nice;
+ I'm sure you're very welcome--will you please to take a slice?"
+ "Oh no, no," said the little fly, "kind sir, that cannot be;
+ I've heard what's in your pantry, and I do not wish to see."
+
+ "Sweet creature," said the spider, "you're witty and you're wise;
+ How handsome are your gauzy wings, how brilliant are your eyes!
+ I have a little looking-glass upon my parlour shelf,
+ If you'll step in one moment, dear, you shall behold yourself."
+ "I thank you, gentle sir," she said, "for what you're pleased to
+ say,
+ And bidding you good-morning now, I'll call another day."
+
+ The spider turned him round about, and went into his den,
+ For well he knew the silly fly would soon come back again;
+ So he wove a subtle web in a little corner sly,
+ And set his table ready, to dine upon the fly.
+ Then he came out to his door again, and merrily did sing,--
+ "Come hither, hither, pretty fly, with the pearl and silver wing;
+ Your robes are green and purple--there's a crest upon your head!
+ Your eyes are like the diamond bright, but mine are dull as lead!"
+
+ Alas! alas! how very soon this silly little fly,
+ Hearing his wily, flattering words, came slowly flitting by.
+ With buzzing wings she hung aloft, then near and nearer drew,
+ Thinking only of her brilliant eyes, her green and purple hue--
+ Thinking only of her crested head--poor foolish thing! At last,
+ Up jumped the cunning spider, and fiercely held her fast!
+ He dragged her up his winding stair, into his dismal den,
+ Within his little parlour--but she ne'er came out again!
+
+ And now, dear little children, who may this story read,
+ To idle, silly flattering words, I pray you, ne'er give heed;
+ Unto an evil counsellor close heart, and ear, and eye.
+ And take a lesson from this tale of the Spider and the Fly.

+ _Old Mother Goose_
+
+ Old Mother Goose, when
+ She wanted to wander
+ Would ride through the air
+ On a very fine gander.
+
+ Mother Goose had a house,
+ 'Twas built in a wood,
+ Where an owl at the door
+ For sentinel stood.
+
+ She had a son Jack,
+ A plain-looking lad,
+ He is not very good,
+ Nor yet very bad.
+
+ She sent him to market,
+ A live goose he bought,
+ "Here, mother," says he,
+ "It will not go for nought."
+
+ Jack's goose and her gander,
+ Grew very fond;
+ They'd both eat together,
+ Or swim in one pond.
+
+ Jack found one morning,
+ As I have been told,
+ His goose had laid him
+ An egg of pure gold.
+
+ Jack ran to his mother,
+ The news for to tell,
+ She called him a good boy,
+ And said it was well.
+
+ Jack sold his gold egg
+ To a rogue of a Jew,
+ Who cheated him out of
+ The half of his due.
+
+ Then Jack went a courting,
+ A lady so gay,
+ As fair as the lily,
+ And sweet as the May.
+
+ The Jew and the Squire
+ Came behind his back,
+ And began to belabour
+ The sides of poor Jack,
+
+ Then old Mother Goose,
+ That instant came in,
+ And turned her son Jack
+ Into famed Harlequin.
+
+ She then with her wand,
+ Touched the lady so fine,
+ And turned her at once
+ Into sweet Columbine.
+
+ The gold egg into the sea
+ Was thrown then,--
+ When Jack jumped in,
+ And got the egg back again.
+
+ The Jew got the goose,
+ Which he vowed he would kill,
+ Resolving at once
+ His pockets to fill.
+
+ Jack's mother came in,
+ And caught the goose soon,
+ And mounting its back,
+ Flew up to the moon.

+ _The Babes in the Wood_
+
+ A Gentleman of good account
+ In Norfolk dwelt of late,
+ Whose wealth and riches did surmount
+ Most men of his estate.
+
+ Sore sick he was, and like to die,
+ No help his life could save;
+ His wife by him as sick did lie,
+ And both were near the grave.
+
+ No love between these two was lost:
+ Each to the other kind;
+ In love they lived, in love they died,
+ And left two babes behind.
+
+ Now, if the children chanced to die,
+ Ere they to age should come,
+ Their uncle should possess their wealth!
+ For so the will did run.
+
+ "Now, brother," said the dying man,
+ "Look to my children dear;
+ Be good unto my boy and girl,
+ No friends else have they here."
+
+ Their parents being dead and gone,
+ The children home he takes,
+ And brings them both unto his house,
+ Where much of them he makes.
+
+ He had not kept those pretty babes
+ A twelvemonth and a day,
+ When, for their wealth, he did devise
+ To make them both away.
+
+ He bargained with two ruffians bold,
+ Who were of savage mood,
+ That they should take the children twain,
+ And slay them in a wood.
+
+ They prate and prattle pleasantly,
+ While riding on the way,
+ To those their wicked uncle hired,
+ These lovely babes to slay:
+
+ So that the pretty speech they had,
+ Made the ruffians' heart relent;
+ And they that took the deed to do,
+ Full sorely did repent.
+
+ Yet one of them, more hard of heart,
+ Did vow to do his charge,
+ Because the wretch that hired him
+ Had paid him very large.
+
+ The other would not agree thereto,
+ So here they fell at strife;
+ With one another they did fight,
+ About the children's life.
+
+ [Illustration: "WENT WANDERING UP AND DOWN."]
+
+ And he that was of milder mood
+ Did slay the other there,
+ Within an unfrequented wood,
+ The babes did quake for fear!
+
+ He took the children by the hand,
+ While they for bread complain:
+ "Stay here," quoth he, "I'll bring ye bread,
+ When I do come again."
+
+ These pretty babes, with hand in hand,
+ Went wandering up and down;
+ But never more they saw the man
+ Approaching from the town.
+
+ Thus wandered these two pretty dears,
+ Till death did end their grief;
+ In one another's arms they died,
+ Poor babes! past all relief.
+
+ No burial these innocents
+ Of any man receives,
+ But Robin Redbreast lovingly
+ Did cover them with leaves.
+
+ The fellow that did take in hand
+ These children for to kill,
+ Was for a robbery judged to die,
+ As was God's blessed will:
+
+ And did confess the very truth,
+ The which is here expressed;
+ Their uncle died while he for debt
+ Did long in prison rest.

+ _History of John Gilpin_
+
+ John Gilpin was a citizen
+ Of credit and renown,
+ A train-band captain eke was he,
+ Of famous London town.
+
+ John Gilpin's spouse said to her dear,
+ "Though wedded we have been
+ These twice ten tedious years, yet we
+ No holiday have seen.
+
+ "To-morrow is our wedding-day,
+ And we will then repair
+ Unto the 'Bell' at Edmonton,
+ All in a chaise and pair.
+
+ "My sister, and my sister's child,
+ Myself, and children three
+ Will fill the chaise; so you must ride
+ On horseback after we."
+
+ He soon replied, "I do admire
+ Of womankind but one,
+ And you are she, my dearest dear,
+ Therefore it shall be done.
+
+ "I am a linendraper bold,
+ As all the world doth know,
+ And my good friend the calender
+ Will lend his horse to go."
+
+ Quoth Mrs. Gilpin, "That's well said;
+ And for that wine is dear,
+ We will be furnished with our own,
+ Which is both bright and clear."
+
+ John Gilpin kissed his losing wife,
+ O'erjoyed was he to find,
+ That though on pleasure she was bent,
+ She had a frugal mind.
+
+ The morning came, the chaise was brought,
+ But yet was not allowed
+ To drive up to the door, lest all
+ Should say that she was proud.
+
+ So three doors off the chaise was stayed,
+ Where they did all get in;
+ Six precious souls, and all agog
+ To dash through thick and thin.
+
+ Smack went the whip, round went the wheels,
+ Were never folks so glad!
+ The stones did rattle underneath,
+ As if Cheapside were mad.

+ John Gilpin at his horse's side
+ Seized fast the flowing mane,
+ And up he got, in haste to ride,
+ But soon came down again.
+
+ For saddletree scarce reached had he,
+ His journey to begin,
+ When, turning round his head, he saw
+ Three customers come in.
+
+ So down he came; for loss of time,
+ Although it grieved him sore,
+ Yet loss of pence, full well he knew,
+ Would trouble him much more.
+
+ 'Twas long before the customers
+ Were suited to their mind,
+ When Betty screaming came downstairs,
+ "The wine is left behind!"
+
+ "Good lack!" quoth he, "yet bring it me,
+ My leathern belt likewise,
+ In which I bear my trusty sword
+ When I do exercise."
+
+ Now Mistress Gilpin (careful soul!)
+ Had two stone bottles found,
+ To hold the liquor that she loved,
+ And keep it safe and sound.
+
+ Each bottle had a curling ear,
+ Through which the belt he drew,
+ And hung a bottle on each side,
+ To make his balance true.
+
+ Then over all, that he might be
+ Equipped from top to toe,
+ His long red cloak, well brushed and neat,
+ He manfully did throw.
+
+ Now see him mounted once again
+ Upon his nimble steed,
+ Full slowly pacing o'er the stones,
+ With caution and good heed.
+
+ But finding soon a smoother road
+ Beneath his well-shod feet,
+ The snorting beast began to trot,
+ Which galled him in his seat.
+
+ "So, fair and softly!" John he cried,
+ But John he cried in vain;
+ That trot became a gallop soon,
+ In spite of curb and rein.
+
+ So stooping down, as needs he must
+ Who cannot sit upright,
+ He grasped the mane with both his hands,
+ And eke with all his might.
+
+ His horse, who never in that sort
+ Had handled been before,
+ What thing upon his back had got,
+ Did wonder more and more.
+
+ Away went Gilpin, neck or nought;
+ Away went hat and wig;
+ He little dreamt, when he set out,
+ Of running such a rig.
+
+ The wind did blow, the cloak did fly
+ Like streamer long and gay,
+ Till, loop and button failing both,
+ At last it flew away.
+
+ Then might all people well discern
+ The bottles he had slung;
+ A bottle swinging at each side,
+ As hath been said or sung.
+
+ The dogs did bark, the children screamed.
+ Up flew the windows all;
+ And every soul cried out, "Well done!"
+ As loud as he could bawl.
+
+ Away went Gilpin--who but he?
+ His fame soon spread around:
+ "He carries weight! he rides a race!
+ 'Tis for a thousand pound!"
+
+ And still as fast as he drew near,
+ 'Twas wonderful to view
+ How in a trice the turnpike-men
+ Their gates wide open threw.
+
+ And now, as he went bowing down
+ His reeking head full low,
+ The bottles twain behind his back
+ Were shattered at a blow.
+
+ Down ran the wine into the road,
+ Most piteous to be seen,
+ Which made the horse's flanks to smoke
+ As they had basted been.
+
+ But still he seemed to carry weight,
+ With leathern girdle braced;
+ For all might see the bottle-necks
+ Still dangling at his waist.
+
+ Thus all through merry Islington
+ These gambols he did play,
+ Until he came unto the Wash
+ Of Edmonton so gay;
+
+ And there he threw the wash about
+ On both sides of the way,
+ Just like unto a trundling mop.
+ Or a wild goose at play.
+
+ At Edmonton his loving wife
+ From the balcony spied
+ Her tender husband, wondering much
+ To see how he did ride.
+
+ "Stop, stop, John Gilpin!--Here's the house!"
+ They all at once did cry;
+ "The dinner waits, and we are tired,"
+ Said Gilpin--"So am I!"
+
+ But yet his horse was not a whit
+ Inclined to tarry there;
+ For why?--his owner had a house
+ Full ten miles off, at Ware.
+
+ So like an arrow swift he flew,
+ Shot by an archer strong;
+ So did he fly--which brings me to
+ The middle of my song.
+
+ Away went Gilpin out of breath
+ And sore against his will,
+ Till at his friend the calender's.
+ His horse at last stood still.
+
+ The calender, amazed to see
+ His neighbour in such trim,
+ Laid down his pipe, flew to the gate,
+ And thus accosted him:
+
+ "What news? what news? your tidings tell;
+ Tell me you must and shall--
+ Say why bareheaded you are come,
+ Or why you come at all?"
+
+ Now Gilpin had a pleasant wit,
+ And loved a timely joke;
+ And thus unto the calender
+ In merry guise he spoke:
+
+ "I came because your horse would come:
+ And, if I well forebode,
+ My hat and wig will soon be here,
+ They are upon the road."
+
+ The calender, right glad to find
+ His friend in merry pin,
+ Returned him not a single word,
+ But to the house went in;
+
+ Whence straight he came with hat and wig,
+ A wig that flowed behind,
+ A hat not much the worse for wear,
+ Each comely in its kind.
+
+ He held them up, and in his turn
+ Thus showed his ready wit,
+ "My head is twice as big as yours,
+ They therefore needs must fit.
+
+ "But let me scrape the dirt away,
+ That hangs upon your face;
+ And stop and eat, for well you may
+ Be in a hungry case."
+
+ Said John, "It is my wedding-day,
+ And all the world would stare
+ If wife should dine at Edmonton,
+ And I should dine at Ware."
+
+ So turning to his horse, he said,
+ "I am in haste to dine;
+ 'Twas for your pleasure you came here,
+ You shall go back for mine."
+
+ Ah! luckless speech, and bootless boast!
+ For which he paid full dear;
+ For while he spake, a braying ass
+ Did sing most loud and clear;
+
+ Whereat his horse did snort, as he
+ Had heard a lion roar,
+ And galloped off with all his might,
+ As he had done before.
+
+ Away went Gilpin, and away
+ Went Gilpin's hat and wig:
+ He lost them sooner than at first,
+ For why--they were too big.
+
+ Now Mistress Gilpin, when she saw
+ Her husband posting down
+ Into the country far away,
+ She pulled out half-a-crown;
+
+ And thus unto the youth she said,
+ That drove them to the "Bell,"
+ "This shall be yours when you bring back
+ My husband safe and well."
+
+ The youth did ride, and soon did meet
+ John coming back amain;
+ Whom in a trice he tried to stop,
+ By catching at his rein;
+
+ But not performing what he meant,
+ And gladly would have done,
+ The frighted steed he frighted more,
+ And made him faster run.
+
+ Away went Gilpin, and away
+ Went postboy at his heels,
+ The postboy's horse right glad to miss
+ The lumbering of the wheels.
+
+ Six gentlemen upon the road,
+ Thus seeing Gilpin fly,
+ With postboy scampering in the rear,
+ They raised the hue and cry.
+
+ "Stop thief! stop thief! a highwayman!"
+ Not one of them was mute;
+ And all and each that passed that way
+ Did join in the pursuit.
+
+ And now the turnpike gates again
+ Flew open in short space;
+ The toll-men thinking, as before,
+ That Gilpin rode a race.
+
+ And so he did, and won it too,
+ For he got first to town;
+ Nor stopped till where he had got up,
+ He did again get down.
+
+ Now let us sing, "Long live the King,
+ And Gilpin, long live he;"
+ And when he next doth ride abroad,
+ May I be there to see.

+
+ But while they were all a merry-making,
+ Heigho, says Rowley,
+ A cat and her kittens came tumbling in.
+ With a rowley powley, gammon and spinach,
+ Heigho, says Anthony Rowley!
+
+ The cat she seized the rat by the crown;
+ Heigho, says Rowley,
+ The kittens they pulled the little mouse down.
+ With a rowley powley, gammon and spinach,
+ Heigho, says Anthony Rowley!
+
+ This put Mr. Frog in a terrible fright;
+ Heigho, says Rowley,
+ He took up his hat, and he wished them good-night.
+ With a rowley powley, gammon and spinach,
+ Heigho, says Anthony Rowley!
+
+ But as Froggy was crossing over a brook,
+ Heigho, says Rowley,
+ A lily-white duck came and gobbled him up.
+ With a rowley powley, gammon and spinach,

+ So there was an end of one, two, and three,

+ Old Gammer Hipple-hopple hopped out of bed,
+ She opened the casement, and popped out her head;
+ Oh! husband, oh! husband, the grey goose is dead,
+ And the fox is gone through the town, oh!
+
+ Then the old man got up in his red cap,
+ And swore he would catch the fox in a trap;
+ But the fox was too cunning, and gave him the slip,
+ And ran through the town, the town, oh!
+
+ When he got to the top of the hill,
+ He blew his trumpet both loud and shrill,
+ For joy that he was safe
+ Through the town, oh!
+
+ When the fox came back to his den,
+ He had young ones both nine and ten,
+ "You're welcome home, daddy; you may go again,
+ If you bring us such nice meat
+ From the town, oh!"

+ And now, good Sir, your horse is shod."
+
+
+ _Twinkle, twinkle, little star_
+
+ Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
+ How I wonder what you are,
+ Up above the world so high,
+ Like a diamond in the sky.
+
+ When the blazing sun is gone,
+ When he nothing shines upon,
+ Then you show your little light,
+ Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.
+
+ Then the traveller in the dark
+ Thanks you for your tiny spark:
+ How could he see where to go,
+ If you did not twinkle so?
+
+ In the dark blue sky you keep,
+ Often through my curtains peep,
+ For you never shut your eye,
+ Till the sun is in the sky.
+
+ As your bright and tiny spark
+ Lights the traveller in the dark,
+ Though I know not what you are,
+ Twinkle, twinkle, little star.

+ _On Christmas eve I turned the spit_
+
+ On Christmas eve I turned the spit,
+ I burnt my fingers, I feel it yet;
+ The cock sparrow flew over the table,
+ The pot began to play with the ladle;
+ The ladle stood up like a naked man,
+ And vowed he'd fight the frying-pan;
+ The frying-pan behind the door
+ Said he never saw the like before;
+ And the kitchen clock I was going to wind,
+ Said he never saw the like behind.

+
+ In Islington there was a man,
+ Of whom the world might say,
+ That still a Godly race he ran,
+ Whene'er he went to pray.
+
+ A kind and gentle heart he had,
+ To comfort friends and foes;
+ The naked every day he clad,
+ When he put on his clothes.
+
+ And in that town a dog was found:
+ As many dogs there be--
+ Both mongrel, puppy, whelp, and hound,
+ And curs of low degree.
+
+ This dog and man at first were friends,
+ But, when a pique began,
+ The dog, to gain some private ends,
+ Went mad, and bit the man.
+
+ Around from all the neighbouring streets
+ The wondering neighbours ran;
+ And swore the dog had lost his wits,
+ To bite so good a man.
+
+ The wound it seemed both sore and sad
+ To every Christian eye;
+ And while they swore the dog was mad,
+ They swore the man would die.
+
+ But soon a wonder came to light,
+ That showed the rogues they lied--
+ The man recovered of the bite;
+ The dog it was that died.
+
+
+ _There was an old woman_

+ Or draw you in a chaise.
+
+ The Pig is not a feeder nice,
+ The Squirrel loves a nut,
+ The Wolf would eat you in a trice,
+ The Buzzard's eyes are shut.
+ The Lark sings high up in the air,
+ The Linnet in the tree;
+ The Swan he has a bosom fair,
+ And who so proud as he?
+
+ Oh, yes, the Peacock is more proud,
+ Because his tail has eyes;
+ The Lion roars so very loud,
+ He'd fill you with surprise.
+ The Raven's coat is shining black,
+ Or, rather, raven-grey:

+ _I had a little husband_
+
+ I had a little husband,
+ No bigger than my thumb;

+
+ I bought a little horse,
+ That galloped up and down;
+ I bridled him, and saddled him,
+ And sent him out of town.

+
+ Come take up your hats, and away let us haste,
+ To the Butterfly's Ball, and the Grasshopper's Feast.
+ The trumpeter, Gad-fly, has summoned the crew,
+ And the revels are now only waiting for you.
+
+ On the smooth shaven grass, by the side of a wood,
+ Beneath a broad oak which for ages had stood,
+ See the children of earth, and the tenants of air,
+ To an evening's amusement together repair.
+
+ And there came the Beetle so blind and so black,
+ Who carried the Emmet, his friend, on his back.
+ And there came the Gnat and the Dragonfly too,
+ With all their relations, green, orange, and blue.
+
+ And there came the Moth, with her plumage of down,
+ And the Hornet with jacket of yellow and brown;
+ And with him the Wasp, his companion, did bring,
+ But they promised that evening to lay by their sting.
+
+ Then the sly little Dormouse peeped out of his hole,
+ And led to the Feast his blind cousin the Mole:
+ And the Snail, with her horns peeping out of her shell,
+ Came, fatigued with the distance, the length of an ell.
+
+ A mushroom the table, and on it was spread
+ A water-dock leaf, which their table-cloth made.
+ The viands were various, to each of their taste,
+ And the Bee brought the honey to sweeten the feast.
+
+ With steps most majestic the Snail did advance,
+ And he promised the gazers a minuet to dance;
+ But they all laughed so loud that he drew in his head,
+ And went in his own little chamber to bed.
+
+ Then, as evening gave way to the shadows of night,
+ Their watchman, the Glow-worm, came out with his light.
+ So home let us hasten, while yet we can see,
+ For no watchman is waiting for you or for me.

+
+ I begged for my master,
+ And got him store of pelf;
+ And now, Jove be praised!
+ I'm begging for myself.
+ And a-begging we will go, we'll go, we'll go;
+ And a-begging we will go!
+
+ In a hollow tree
+ I live, and pay no rent;
+ Providence provides for me,
+ And I am well content.
+ And a-begging we will go, we'll go, we'll go;
+ And a-begging we will go!
+
+ Of all the occupations,
+ A beggar's life's the best;
+ For whene'er he's weary,
+ He'll lay him down and rest.
+ And a-begging we will go, we'll go, we'll go,
+ And a-begging we will go!
+
+ I fear no plots against me,
+ I live in open cell;
+ Then who would be a king,
+ When beggars live so well?
+ And a-begging we will go, we'll go, we'll go;
+ And a-begging we will go!

+ will go to market, and buy a little pig."
+
+ As she was coming home, she came to a stile; but the pig would not
+ go over the stile.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met a dog. So she said to the
+ dog--
+
+ "Dog, dog, bite pig!
+ Pig won't get over the stile;
+ And I shan't get home to-night."
+
+ But the dog would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met a stick. So she said--
+
+ "Stick, stick, beat dog!
+ Dog won't bite pig;
+ Pig won't get over the stile;
+ And I shan't get home to-night."
+
+ But the stick would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met a fire. So she said--
+
+ "Fire, fire, burn stick!
+ Stick won't beat dog;
+ Dog won't bite pig;
+ Pig won't get over the stile;
+ And I shan't get home to-night."
+
+ But the fire would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met some water. So she said--
+
+ "Water, water, quench fire!
+ Fire won't burn stick;
+ Stick won't beat dog;
+ Dog won't bite pig;
+ Pig won't get over the stile;
+ And I shan't get home to-night."
+
+ But the water would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met an ox. So she said--

+ "Ox, ox, drink water!
+ Water won't quench fire;
+ Fire won't burn stick;
+ Stick won't beat dog;

+ Pig won't get over the stile;

+ Water won't quench fire;

+ Dog won't bite pig;

+
+ But the butcher would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met a rope. So she said--
+
+ "Rope, rope, hang butcher!
+ Butcher won't kill ox;
+ Ox won't drink water;
+ Water won't quench fire;
+ Fire won't burn stick;
+ Stick won't beat dog;

+
+ But the rope would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met a rat. So she said--
+
+ "Rat, rat, gnaw rope!
+ Rope won't hang butcher;
+ Butcher won't kill ox;
+ Ox won't drink water;
+ Water won't quench fire;
+ Fire won't burn stick;

+ Dog won't bite pig;
+ Pig won't get over the stile;

+
+ But the rat would not.
+
+ She went a little farther, and she met a cat. So she said--
+
+ "Cat, cat, kill rat!
+ Rat won't gnaw rope;
+ Rope won't hang butcher;
+ Butcher won't kill ox;
+ Ox won't drink water;
+ Water won't quench fire;
+ Fire won't burn stick;
+ Stick won't beat dog;
+ Dog won't bite pig;
+ Pig won't get over the stile;
+ And I shan't get home to-night."
+
+ The cat said, "If you will give me a saucer of milk, I will kill the
+ rat."
+
+ So the old woman gave the cat the milk, and when she had lapped up
+ the milk--
+
+ The cat began to kill the rat;
+ The rat began to gnaw the rope;
+ The rope began to hang the butcher;
+ The butcher began to kill the ox;
+ The ox began to drink the water;
+ The water began to quench the fire;
+ The fire began to burn the stick;

+ Ah! Doctor Fox,
+ You are very cunning,

+ See here, see here!
+ See, we have found our mittens.
+
+ Put on your mittens,
+ You silly kittens,
+ And you shall have some pie.
+ Purr-r, purr-r, purr-r,
+ Oh! let us have the pie!
+ Purr-r, purr-r, purr-r.
+
+ The three little kittens put on their mittens
+ And soon ate up the pie;
+ Oh! mother dear,
+ We greatly fear,
+ That we have soiled our mittens.
+
+ Soiled your mittens!
+ You naughty kittens!
+ Then they began to sigh,
+ Mi-ow, mi-ow, mi-ow.
+ Then they began to sigh,
+ Mi-ow, mi-ow, mi-ow.
+
+ The three little kittens washed their mittens,
+ And hung them up to dry;
+ Oh! mother dear,
+ Do you not hear,
+ That we have washed our mittens?
+
+ Washed your mittens!
+ Oh! you're good kittens.
+ But I smell a rat close by.
+ Hush! hush! mee-ow, mee-ow.
+ We smell a rat close by,
+ Mee-ow, mee-ow, mee-ow.

+ _The cock's on the housetop_
+
+ The cock's on the housetop blowing his horn;
+ The bull's in the barn a-threshing of corn;
+ The maids in the meadows are making of hay,
+ The ducks in the river are swimming away.
+
+
+ _I do not like thee, Doctor Fell_
+
+ I do not like thee, Doctor Fell,
+ The reason why I cannot tell;

+ _My mammy's maid_
+
+ Dingty, diddledy, my mammy's maid,
+ She stole oranges, I'm afraid;
+ Some in her pockets, some in her sleeve,
+ She stole oranges, I do believe.
+
+
+ _I had a little castle_
+
+ I had a little castle upon the sea-shore,
+ One half was water, the other was land;
+ I opened the castle door, and guess what I found,
+ I found a fair lady with a cup in her hand.
+ The cup was all gold, filled with wine,
+ "Drink, fair lady, and thou shalt be mine."

+
+ My diddle dinkety poppety pet,

+ Little Betty Blue
+ Lost her holiday shoe.
+
+ What shall little Betty do?
+ Buy her another
+ To match the other,
+ And then she'll walk in two.
+
+
+ _A nick and a nock_
+
+ A nick and a nock,
+ A hen and cock,
+ And a penny for my master.
+
+
+ _Great A, little A_
+
+ Great A, little A,
+ This pancake day;
+ Toss the ball high,
+ Throw the ball low,
+ Those that come after
+ May sing heigh-ho!
+
+
+ _Upon St. Paul's steeple_
+
+ Upon St. Paul's steeple stands a tree.
+ As full of apples as may be,
+ The little boys of London town,
+ They run with hooks and pull them down;
+ And then they run from hedge to hedge
+ Until they come to London Bridge.
+
+ [Illustration: "THEY RUN WITH HOOKS AND PULL THEM DOWN."]

+
+ _Cherries are ripe_
+
+ Cherries are ripe, cherries are ripe,
+ Give the baby some;
+ Cherries are ripe, cherries are ripe,
+ Baby must have none.
+
+ Cherries are too sour to use,
+ Babies are too young to choose;
+ By-and-by, baked in a pie,
+ Baby shall have some.

+
+ _Old Rhyme on Cutting Nails_
+
+ Cut them on Monday, you cut them for health;
+ Cut them on Tuesday, you cut them for wealth;
+ Cut them on Wednesday, you cut them for news;
+ Cut them on Thursday, a pair of new shoes;
+ Cut them on Friday, you cut them for sorrow;
+ Cut them on Saturday, you'll see your true-love to-morrow;
+ Cut them on Sunday, and you'll have ill-fortune all through the
+ week.

+
+ _Here a little child I stand_
+
+ Here a little child I stand,
+ Heaving up my either hand;
+ Gold as paddocks though they be,
+ Here I lift them up to Thee,
+ For a benison to fall
+ On our meat and on us all!

+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.

+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate

+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
