+
+  PETER PATTER _told them to me,
+  All the little rimes,
+  Whispered them among the bushes
+  Half a hundred times.
+
+  Peter lives upon a mountain
+  Pretty near the sun,
+  Knows the bears and birds and rabbits
+  Nearly every one;
+  Has a home among the alders,
+  Bed of cedar bark,
+  Walks alone beneath the pine trees
+  Even when it's dark.
+
+  Squirrels tell him everything
+  That happens in the trees,
+  Cricket in the gander-grass
+  Sings of all he sees;
+  Rimes from bats and butterflies,
+  Crabs and waterfowl;
+  But the best of all he gets
+  From his Uncle Owl.
+
+  Sometimes when its day-time,
+  But mostly in the night,
+  They sit beneath an oak tree
+  And hug each other tight,
+  And tell their rimes and riddles
+  Where the catty creatures prowl--
+  Funny little Peter Patter
+  And his Uncle Owl._

+
+  A COPPER DOWN A CRACK
+
+
+  Jingle, jingle, Jack,
+  A copper down a crack.
+  Twenty men and all their wives,
+  With sticks and picks and pocket knives,
+  Digging for their very lives
+  To get the copper back.
+
+
+
+
+  I'M MUCH TOO BIG FOR A FAIRY
+
+
+  I'm much too big for a fairy,
+  And much too small for a man,
+  But this is true:
+  Whatever I do,
+  I do it the best I can.
+
+
+
+
+  DID YOU EVER PLAY TAG WITH A TIGER?
+
+
+  Did you ever play tag with a tiger,
+  Or ever play boo with a bear;
+  Did you ever put rats in the rain-barrel
+  To give poor old Granny a scare?
+
+  It's fun to play tag with a tiger,
+  It's fun for the bear to say "boo,"
+  But if rats are found in the rain-barrel
+  Old Granny will put you in too.
+
+
+
+
+  [Illustration]
+
+  THE BLUE SONG
+
+
+  Hot mush and molasses all in a blue bowl--
+  Eat it, it's good for you, sonny.
+  'T will make you grow tall as a telephone pole--
+  Eat it, it's good for you, sonny.
+
+  Fresh fish and potatoes all on a blue plate--
+  Eat it up smart now, my sonny.
+  'T will make you as jolly and fat as Aunt Kate--
+  Eat it up quick now, my sonny.
+
+  Sweet milk from a nanny-goat in a blue cup--
+  Drink it, it's good for you, sonny,
+  'T will fill you, expand you, and help you grow up,
+  And make a real man of you, sonny.
+
+
+
+
+  HIPPITY HOP TO BED
+
+
+  O it's hippity hop to bed!
+  I'd rather sit up instead.
+  But when father says "must,"
+  There's nothing but just
+  Go hippity hop to bed.

+
+  AWAY TO THE RIVER
+
+
+  Away to the river, away to the wood,
+  While the grasses are green and the berries are good!
+  Where the locusts are scraping their fiddles and bows,
+  And the bees keep a-coming wherever one goes.
+
+  Oh, it's off to the river and off to the hills,
+  To the land of the bloodroot and wild daffodils,
+  With a buttercup blossom to color my chin,
+  And a basket of burs to put sandberries in.
+
+
+
+
+  [Illustration]
+
+  OUR LITTLE PAT
+
+
+  Our little Pat
+  Was chasing the cat
+  And kicking the kittens about.
+  When mother said "Quit!"
+  He ran off to sit
+  On the top of the woodpile and pout;
+  But a sly little grin
+  Soon slid down his chin
+  And let all the sulkiness out.
+
+
+
+
+  THE ANIMAL SHOW
+
+
+  Father and mother and Bobbie will go
+  To see all the sights at the animal show.
+  Where lions and bears
+  Sit on dining room chairs,
+  Where a camel is able
+  To stand on a table,
+  Where monkeys and seals
+  All travel on wheels,
+  And a Zulu baboon
+  Rides a baby balloon.
+  The sooner you're ready, the sooner we'll go.
+  Aboard, all aboard, for the Animal Show!

+  TOMMY TRIMBLE
+
+
+  Billy be nimble,
+  Hurry and see
+  Old Tommy Trimble
+  Climbing a tree.
+  He claws with his fingers
+  And digs with his toes.
+  The longer he lingers
+  The slower he goes.

+  DICKIE, DICKIE DEXTER

+  Dickie, Dickie Dexter
+  Had a wife and vexed her.
+  She put him in a rabbit cage
+  And fed him peppermint and sage--
+  Dickie, Dickie Dexter.

+
+  ON THE ROAD TO TATTLETOWN
+
+
+  On the road to Tattletown
+  What is this I see?
+  A pig upon a pedestal,
+  A cabbage up a tree,
+  A rabbit cutting capers
+  With a twenty dollar bill--
+  Now if I don't get to Tattletown
+  Then no one ever will.
+
+
+
+
+  POLLY AND PETER
+
+
+  Polly had some china cows
+  And Peter had a gun.
+  She turned the bossies out to browse,
+  And Peterkin, for fun,
+  Just peppered them with butter beans
+  And blew them all to smithereens.
+
+         *       *       *
+
+  Now what will pretty Polly do
+  For milk and cream and butter too?
+
+
+
+
+  I WENT TO TOWN ON MONDAY
+
+
+  I went to town on Monday
+  To buy myself a coat,
+  But on the way I met a man
+  Who traveled with a caravan,
+  And bought a billy-goat.
+
+  I went to town on Tuesday
+  And bought a fancy vest.
+  I kept the pretty bucklestraps,
+  Buttonholes and pocketflaps,
+  And threw away the rest.
+
+  [Illustration]
+
+  I went to town on Thursday

+  But the naughty little snowflakes didn't mind a word she said,

+  They thought that they'd be back in time enough to go to bed.
+  But they found out that their mother wasn't quite the dunce they

+  He bellows awfully loud.
+
+  And when he's crying, sometimes
+  You can hear his teardrops fall
+  With a patter, patter, patter,
+  Against the garden wall.
+
+  But when he's madder'n mischief,
+  He rolls, and growls, and spits,
+  And kicks the clouds all forty ways,
+  And gives the weather fits.
+
+  Then tears come down in bucketfuls,
+  And children dance for joy,
+  Till the sun comes out and soundly spanks
+  Her Thunder Baby Boy.

+
+
+  Old Father Annum on New Year's Day
+  Picked up his bag of months and years,
+  Thrust in his hand in a careless way,
+  And pulled a wee fellow out by the ears.
+  "There you are," said he to the waiting crowd,
+  "He's as good as any I have in my pack.
+  I never can tell, but I hope to be proud
+  Of the little rascal when I come back."

+  Here comes a cabbage with a bonnet on its head,
+  A pretty purple bonnet with a bow of blue and red;
+  And here comes a bottle with a collar 'round its neck,
+  A handsome linen collar, too, without a spot or speck;
+  Next comes a meat-saw, his job is biting beef,
+  And according to the cleaver he has gold in all his teeth;
+  And last of all there comes along, amid the ringing cheers,
+  A princely Indian corn-stalk with rings in both his ears.

+
+  THE RUNAWAYS
+
+
+  A pipe and a spoon and a tenpenny nail
+  Stole a tin dishpan and went for a sail.
+  But the cook he grew curious,
+  Fussy, and furious;
+  Gathered his trappings, and went on their trail.
+  He found them that night in a pitiful plight,
+  And sent them all home on the ten o'clock mail.

+  To a croaking meadowlark,

+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all

+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.

+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+

+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation

+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at

+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations.  To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
