"Nurse says she has found
The book of great use,
For children are pleased
To hear Mother Goose.
"Now, is it not wrong
To tell them a lie?
If not, I am sure
I cannot see why."
"I think you are right,"
Her mother replied;
"Nurse must try to amuse him
With something beside.
"But babies are pleased
With the jingle of rhyme,
And old Mother Goose
Has been used a long time.
"We must find Wee-Wee Songs,
That are not quite so silly,
And buy them for nurse,
To amuse little Willy.
"We give him, each day,
Fresh milk and sweet bread,
And his dear little mind
Must be properly fed.
