Curly-Locks

Curly-Locks

Curly-locks, Curly-locks, wilt thou be mine?
Thou shalt not wash the dished nor yet feed the swine;
But sit on a cushion and sew a fine seam
And feed upon strawberries sugar and cream.

Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary

Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary

Mary, Mary, quite contrary
How does your garden grow?
With silver bells and cockle-shells
And pretty maids all in a row.

The Pumpkin Eater

Peter, Peter, pumpkin-eater
Had a wife and couldn’t keep her
Put her in a pumpkin shell
And there he kept her very well.
