“ How does your garden grow?
With silver bells, and cockle shells,
And cowslips all of a row.
[Pg 31]
Bonny lass, pretty lass, wilt thou be mine?
Thou shall not wash dishes,
Nor yet serve the swine;
Thou shalt sit on a cushion, and sew a fine seam,
And thou shalt eat strawberries, sugar, and cream!
[Pg 32]
A dillar, a dollar,
A ten o’clock scholar;
What makes you come so soon? ”

“ Billy boy blue, come blow me your horn,
The sheep’s in the meadow, the cow’s in the corn;
Is that the way you mind your sheep,
Under the haycock fast asleep!
[Pg 35]
Girls and boys come out to play,
The moon it shines as bright as day ”
