XLVI.

Little boy Blue, blow your horn,
The cow's in the meadow, the sheep in the corn.
But where is the little boy tending the sheep?
He's under the hayrick fast asleep.


XLVII.

Humpty-dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty-dumpty had a great fall;
Not all the king's horses, nor all the king's men
Can put Humpty-dumpty on the wall again.


XLVIII.

Daddy-daddy longlegs
Wouldn't say his prayers.
Take him by the left leg
Throw him downstairs.


XLIX.

Yanky Doodle came to town,
How do you think they served him?
One took his bag, another his gown,
The quicker for to starve him.


L.

Tom Thumb, the Piper's son,
Stole a pig and away did run.
The pig was eat, and Tom was beat,
Till he ran crying down the street.
