THE MAN IN THE MOON.
The Man in the Moon Came tumbling down, And asked his way to Norwich;
[Illustration]
They told him south, And he burnt his mouth With eating cold pease-porridge.

TO MARKET, TO MARKET.
To market, to market, to buy a fat Pig; Home again, home again, dancing a jig.

THERE WAS A MAN.
There was a man, and he had nought, And robbers came to rob him;
[Illustration]
He crept up to the chimney-pot,
[Illustration: AND THEN THEY THOUGHT THEY HAD HIM]
[Illustration: BUT HE GOT DOWN ON T'OTHER SIDE]
[Illustration]
And then they could not find him;
[Illustration]
He ran fourteen miles in fifteen days, And never looked behind him.

THE LION AND THE UNICORN.
The Lion and the Unicorn Were fighting for the Crown; The Lion beat the Unicorn All round about the town.

Some gave them white bread, And some gave them brown; Some gave them plum-cake, And sent them out of town.
