=Little Bo-Peep=;
AND
OTHER TALES.
[Ill.u.s.tration]
=Edited by Madame de Chatelain.=
=Little Bo-Peep.=
Little Bo-peep has lost her sheep, And cannot tell where to find 'em; Leave them alone, and they'll come home, And bring their tails behind 'em.
Little Bo-peep fell fast asleep, And dreamt she heard them bleating; When she awoke, she found it a joke, For still they all were fleeting.
Then up she took her little crook, Determined for to find them; She found them indeed, but it made her heart bleed, For they'd left their tails behind them.
It happened one day, as Bo-peep did stray Unto a meadow hard by; There she espied their tails side by side, All hung on a tree to dry.
She heaved a sigh, and wiped her eye, And over the hillocks she raced; And tried what she could, as a shepherdess should, That each tail should be properly placed.
[Ill.u.s.tration]
=The Old Woman and her Eggs.=
[Ill.u.s.tration]
There was an old woman, as I've heard tell, She went to the market her eggs for to sell, She went to the market, all on a market day, And she fell asleep on the king's highway.
There came a little pedlar, his name it was Stout, He cut off her petticoats all round about; He cut off her petticoats up to her knees, Until her poor knees began for to freeze.
When the little old woman began to awake, She began to s.h.i.+ver, and she began to shake; Her knees began to freeze, and she began to cry, "Oh lawk! oh mercy on me! this surely can't be I.
"If it be not I, as I suppose it be, I have a little dog at home, and he knows me; If it be I, he will wag his little tail, But if it be not I, he'll bark and he'll rail."
Up jumped the little woman, all in the dark, Up jump'd the little dog, and he began to bark; The dog began to bark, and she began to cry, "O lawk! oh mercy on me! I see it is not I."
[Ill.u.s.tration]
=Old Mother Goose.=
[Ill.u.s.tration]
Old Mother Goose, when She wanted to wander, Would ride through the air On a very fine gander.
