A Little Pretty Pocket-book/Thread the Needle

by John Newbery

Thread the Needle.

Here Hand in Hand the Boys unite,
⁠And form a very pleasing Sight;
Then thro' each other's Arms they fly,
⁠As Thread does thro' the Needle's Eye.

Rule of Life.

Talk not too much; sit down content,
That your Discourse be pertinent.
