+
+There was a crooked man, and he went a crooked mile,
+He found a crooked sixpence against a crooked stile:
+He bought a crooked cat, which caught a crooked mouse,
+And they all lived together in a little crooked house.
+
+Curly locks, curly locks, wilt thou be mine?
+Thou shalt not wash dishes, nor yet feed the swine;
+But sit on a cushion, and sew a fine seam,
+And feed upon strawberries, sugar, and cream.
+
+My little old man and I fell out,
+I'll tell you what it was all about;
+I had money and he had none,
+And that's the way the noise begun.
+
+Bow-wow-wow, whose dog art thou?
+Little Tom Tucker's dog, bow-wow-wow.
+
+Multiplication is vexation,
+Division is as bad;
+The Rule of Three doth puzzle me,
+And Practice drives me mad.
+
+See a pin and pick it up,
+All the day you'll have good luck;
+See a pin and let it lay,
+Bad luck you'll have all the day.
+
+Jack Sprat could eat no fat,
+His wife could eat no lean;
+And so betwixt them both, you see,
+They made the platter clean.
+
+(A Star)
+Higher than a house, higher than a tree;
+Oh! Whatever can that be?
+
+Little Miss Muffett
+She sat on a tuffett,
+Eating of curds and whey;
+There came a great spider
+Who sat down beside her,
+And frightened Miss Muffett away.
+
+Little Bo-peep has lost her sheep,
+And cannot tell where to find them;
+Leave them alone, and they'll come home,
+And bring their tails behind them.
+
+1. This pig went to market;
+2. This pig stayed at home;
+3. This pig had a bit of meat;
+4. And this pig had none;
+5. This pig said, Wee, wee, wee!
+6. I can't find my way home.
+
+Little Polly Flinders
+Sate among the cinders
+Warming her pretty little toes!
+Her mother came and caught her,
+And whipped her little daughter,
+For spoiling her nice new clothes.
+
+Dance little baby, dance up high,
+Never mind baby, mother is nigh;
+Crow and caper, caper and crow,
+There little baby, there...you go;
+Up to the ceiling, down to the ground
+Backwards and forwards, round and round.
+Dance little baby, mother will sing,
+With the merry coral, ding, ding, ding.
+
+Here sits the Lord Mayor.........................forehead.
+ Here sits his two men ......................eyes.
+Here sits the cock...............................right cheek.
+ Here sits the hen...........................left cheek.
+Here sit the little chickens.....................tip of nose.
+ Here they run in............................mouth
+Chin-chopper, chin-chopper, chin-chopper, chin!..chuck the chin.
+
+To market, To market, to buy a fat pig,
+Home again, home again, jiggety jig.
+To market, To market, to buy a fat hog,
+Home again, home again, jiggety jog.
+
+Jack and Jill went up the hill,
+To fetch a pail of water;
+Jack fell down, and broke his crown,
+And Jill came tumbling after.
+
+Swan, swan, over the sea;
+Swim, swan, swim.
+Swan, swan, back again;
+Well swam, swan.
+
+Humpty-Dumpty sat on a wall,
+Humpty-Dumpty had a great fall;
+All the king's horses, and all the king's men,
+Cannot put Humpty-Dumpty together again.
+
+I had a little hobby horse,
+ And it was dapple grey;
+Its head was made of pea-straw,
+ Its tail was made of hay.
+I sold it to an old woman
+ For a copper groat;
+And I'll not sing my song again
+ Without a new coat.
+
+Handy Spanky, Jack-a-dandy,
+Loves plum-cake and sugar-candy;
+He bought some at a grocer's shop.
+And out he came, hop-hop-hop.
+
+Jack be nimble, Jack be quick;
+And Jack jump over the candlestick.
+
+Little Tom Tucker sings for his supper;
+What shall he eat? White bread an butter.
+How shall he cut it without e'er a knife?
+How will he marry without e'er a wife?
+
+Three straws on a staff
+Would make a baby cry and laugh.
+
+Ride a cock horse to Banbury Cross,
+To see an old lady ride on a white horse,
+Rings on her fingers and bells on her toes.
+So she makes music wherever she goes.
+
+How many days has my baby to play?
+Saturday, Sunday, Monday,
+Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday,
+Saturday, Sunday, Monday.
+
+Dickery, Dickery, Dock!
+The mouse ran up the clock;
+The clock struck One!
+And down the mouse ran,
+Dickery, Dickery, Dock!
+
+Some little mice sat in a barn to spin;
+Pussy came by, and popped her head in;
+"Shall I come in, and cut your threads off?"
+"Oh, no, kind sir, you will snap our heads off!"
+
+Needles and pins, needles and pins,
+When a man marries his trouble begins.
+
+Deedle, deedle, dumpling, my son John,
+He went to bed with his stockings on;
+One shoe off, and one shoe on,
+Deedle, deedle, dumpling, my son John.
+
+All of a row, bend the bow;
+Shot at a pigeon and killed a crow.
+
+You shall have a fish, in a little dish,
+You shall have a fish, when the boat comes in.
+
+Robin and Richard were two pretty men,
+They laid in bed till the clock struck ten;
+Then up starts Robin, and looks in the sky,
+"Oh, brother Richard, the sun's very high!
+The bull's in the barn threshing the corn;
+The cocks on the hayrick blowing his horn."
+
+The Queen of Hearts, she made some tarts,
+ All on a summer's day;
+The knave of Hearts, he stole the tarts,
+ And took them clean away.
+
+Sing a song of sixpence, a bag full of Rye,
+Four-and-twenty Blackbirds baked in a Pie;
+When the Pie was opened, the Birds began to sing,
+Was not that a dainty dish to set before a King?
+
+Young lambs to sell, young lambs to sell;
+If I had as much money as I could tell,
+I never would cry, young lambs to sell.
+Young lambs to sell, young lambs to sell,
+I never would cry, young lambs to sell.
+
+Ding, dong, bell; Pussy's in the well.
+Who put her in? Little Tommy Green.
+Who pulled her out? Little Tommy Trout.
+What a naughty boy was that,
+To drown poor Pussy Cat.
+
+Polly, put the kettle on,
+Polly, put the kettle on,
+Polly, put the kettle on,
+ And let's drink tea.
+Sukey, take it off again,
+Sukey, take it off again,
+Sukey, take it off again,
+ They're all gone away.
+
+Pussy-cat, Pussy-cat where have you been?
+I've been to London to look at the Queen.
+Pussy-cat, Pussy-cat, what did you there?
+I frightened a little mouse under a chair.
+
+Blow, wind blow--
+And go, mill, go--
+That the miller
+May grind his corn;
+That the baker may take it,
+And into rolls make it,
+And bring us some hot in the morn.
+
+Mary had a pretty bird,
+Feathers bright and yellow,
+Slender legs upon my word
+He was a pretty fellow.
+The sweetest notes he always sung,
+Which much delighted Mary;
+And near the cage she'd often sit
+To hear her own canary.
+
+Tom, he was a piper's son.
+He learned to play when he was young.
+But all the tunes that he could play,
+Was "Over the hills and far away."
+Tom with his pipe did play with such skill,
+That those who heard him could never keep still;
+Whenever they heard him they began to dance,
+Even pigs on their hind legs would after him prance.
+
+I saw a ship a-sailing,
+A-sailing on the sea
+And, oh! it was all laden
+With pretty things for thee.
+There were comfits in the cabin
+And apples in the hold,
+The sails were made of silk,
+The masts were made of gold.
+
+What's the news of the day, good neighbour, I pray?
+They say the balloon is gone up to the moon.
+
+There were two birds sat on a stone,
+ Fa, la, la, la, lal, de;
+One flew away, and then there was one,
+ Fa, la, la, la, lal, de;
+The other flew after, and then there was none,
+ Fa, la, la, la, lal, de;
+And so the poor stone was left all alone,
+ Fa, la, la, la, lal, de!
+
+A sunshiny shower
+Won't last half an hour.
+
+Leg over leg, as the dog went to Dover;
+When he came to a style, jump he went over.
+
+Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled pepper;
+ A peck of pickled pepper Peter Piper picked;
+If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled pepper,
+ Where's the peck of pickled pepper Peter Piper picked?
+
+Hush a by, Baby
+On the tree top,
+When the wind blows the cradle will rock:
+When the bough bends the cradle will fall.
+Down will come Baby cradle and all.
+
+Matthew,
+Mark,
+Luke,
+And John.
+Guard the bed that I lie on
+Four corners to my bed,
+Four angels round my head,
+One to watch, and one to pray,
+And two to bear my soul away.
+
+Three wise men of Gotham
+Went to sea in a bowl.
+And if the bowl had been stronger,
+My song would have been longer.
+
+Doctor Foster went to Gloster,
+ In a shower of rain,
+He stepped in a puddle, up to the middle,
+ And never went there again.
+
+There was an old woman tossed up in a basket,
+ Ninety times as high as the moon;
+And where she was going, I couldn't but ask it,
+ For in her hand she carried a broom.
+Old woman, old woman, old woman, quoth I,
+O whither, O whither, O whither, so high?
+To sweep the cobwebs off the sky!
+ Shall I go with you? Aye, by and by.
+
+Once I saw a little bird
+ Come hop, hop, hop;
+So I cried "Little bird,
+ Will you stop, stop, stop?"
+And was going to the window
+ To say "How do you do?"
+But he shook his little tail,
+ And far away he flew.
+
+Is John Smith within? Yes, that he is.
+Can he set a shoe? Ay, marry, two;
+Here a nail, there a nail, tick, tack too.
+
+See, see. What shall I see?
+A horse's head where his tail should be.
+
+(A Cherry)
+As I went through the garden gap,
+Who should I meet but Dick Red-cap!
+A stick in his hand, a stone in his throat,
+If you'll tell me this riddle,
+I'll give you a groat.
+
+Bless you, bless you, bonny bee:
+Say, When will your wedding be?
+If it be to-morrow day,
+Take your wings and fly away.
+
+I like little Pussy, her coat is so warm,
+And if I don't hurt her she'll do me no harm;
+So I'll not pull her tail, nor drive her away,
+But Pussy and I very gently will play.
+
+Go to bed first, a golden purse.
+Go to bed second, a golden pheasant;
+Go to bed third, a golden bird.
+
+Goosey, Goosey, gander, whither shall I wander?
+Upstairs, and downstairs, and in my lady's chamber.
+There I met an old man, who would not say his prayers,
+I took him by the left leg, and threw him down stairs.
+
+The cock doth crow to let you know,
+If you be wise, 't is time to rise.
+
+Eat, birds, eat, and make no waste,
+I lie here and make no haste;
+If my master chance to come,
+You must fly, and I must run.
+
+Where are you going to, my pretty maid?
+I am going a milking, sir, she said.
+May I go with you, my pretty maid?
+You're kindly welcome, sir, she said.
+
+Shoe the wild horse, and shoe the grey mare,
+If the horse wont be shod, let him go bare.
+
+Bye, baby bunting,
+Father's gone a hunting,
+Mother's gone a milking,
+Sister's gone a silking,
+Brother's gone to buy a skin
+To wrap the baby bunting in.
+
+Daffy-down-Dilly has come up to town,
+In a yellow petticoat and a green gown.
+
+Ba-a, Ba-a, black sheep, have you any wool?
+Yes, sir, yes, sir, three bags full:
+One for my master, one for my dame,
+And one for the little boy that lives in our lane.
+
+As I was going up Pippen Hill,
+Pippen Hill was dirty,
+There I met a pretty miss,
+And she dropped me a curtsey.
+Little mis, pretty miss,
+Blessings shine upon you!
+If I had half a crown a day,
+I'd spend it all upon you.
+
+Ride a cock-horse to Banbury Cross,
+ To see what Tommy can buy;
+A penny white loaf, a penny white cake,
+ And a twopenny apple pie.
+
+See, saw, Margery Daw,
+Jenny shall have a new master;
+She shall have but a penny a day,
+Because she can't work any faster.
+
+When I was a batchelor, I lived by myself,
+And all the meat I got, I put upon the shelf;
+The rats and the mice did lead me such a life,
+That I went to London to get myself a wife,
+The streets were so broad and the lanes were so narrow,
+I could not get my wife home without a wheelbarrow;
+The wheelbarrow broke, my wife got a fall,
+Down tumbled wheelbarrow, little wife and all.
+
+I had a little pony,
+ His name was Dapple-gray,
+I lent him to a lady,
+ To ride a mile away.
+She whipped him, she slashed him,
+ She rode him through the mire;
+I would not lend my pony now
+ For all the lady's hire.
+
+Come, let's to bed,
+Says Sleepy Head,
+Tary a while,
+Says Slow'
+Put on the pan,
+Says Greedy Nan,
+Let's sup before we go.
+
+Simple Simon met a pieman,
+Going to the fair;
+Says Simple Simon to the Pieman,
+"Let me taste your ware."
+Says the pieman to Simple Simon,
+"Show me first your penny."
+Says Simple Simon to the pieman,
+"Indeed, I have not any."
+
+Cock-a-doodle-doo!
+My dame has lost her shoe;
+My master's lost his fiddling stick,
+And don't know what to do.
+Cock-a-doodle-doo!
+What is my dame to do?
+Till master finds his fiddling stick,
+She'll dance without her shoe.
+
+Little Robin Redbreast sat upon a tree,
+Up went Pussy-cat, and down went he;
+Down came Pussy-cat, and away Robin ran;
+Says little Robin Redbreast, "Catch me if you can."
+Little Robin Redbreast flew upon a wall,
+Pussy-cat jumped after him, and almost got a fall;
+Little Robin chirp'd and sang, and what did Pussy say?
+Pussy-cat said "Mew," and Robin flew away.
+
+ A little cock-sparrow sat on a tree,
+Looking as happy as happy could be,
+Till a boy came by, with his bow and arrow,
+Says he, I will shoot the little cock-sparrow.
+ His body will make me a nice stew,
+And his giblets will make me a little pie, too.
+Says the little cock-sparrow, I'll be shot if I stay,
+So he clapped his wings and then flew away.
+
+Cuckoo, cherry tree,
+Catch a bird, and give it me.
+Let the tree be high or low,
+Let it hail, rain, or snow.
+
+There was a little man, and he had a little gun,
+And his bullets were made of lead, lead, lead;
+He shot Johnny Sprig through the middle of his wig,
+And knocked it right off his head, head, head.
+
+Pat a cake, pat a cake, baker's man,
+Bake me a cake as fast as you can;
+Pat it and prick it and mark it with T,
+And put in the oven for Tommy and me.
+
+Taffy was a Welshman, Taffy was a thief;
+Taffy came to my house and stole a piece of beef;
+I went to Taffy's house, Taffy was not at home;
+Taffy came to my house and stole a marrow bone.
+
+In the merry month of May
+ When green leaves begin to spring,
+Little lambs do skip like fairies,
+ Birds do couple, build, and sing.
+
+(An Egg)
+In marble walls as white as milk,
+Lined with a skin as soft as silk,
+Within a fountain crystal clear,
+A golden apple doth appear,
+No doors there are to this stronghold,
+Yet things break in and steal the gold.
+
+Little Cock Robin peeped out of his nest,
+ To see the cold winter come in,
+Tit for tat, what matter for that,
+ He'll hide his head under his wing!
+
+Thirty days hath September,
+April, June, and November;
+February has twenty-eight alone;
+All the rest have thirty-one,
+Excepting leap-year--that's the time
+When February's days are twenty-nine.
+
+The man in the wilderness asked me,
+How many strawberries grew in the sea;
+I answered him, as I thought good,
+As many as red herrings grew in the wood.
+
+Molly, my sister, and I fell out,
+And what do you think it was about?
+She loved coffee and I loved tea,
+And that was the reason we could not agree.
+
+My maid Mary, she minds her dairy,
+ While I go hoeing and mowing each morn;
+Merrily run the reel and the little spinning wheel,
+ Whilst I am singing and mowing my corn.
+
+A little boy went into a barn,
+ And lay down on some hay;
+An owl came out and flew about,
+ And the little boy ran away.
+
+Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
+How does your garden grow?
+Silver bells, and cockle shells and pretty maids all in a row.
+
+Little girl, little girl, where have you been?
+Gathering roses to give to the Queen.
+Little girl, little girl, what gave she you?
+She gave me a diamond as big as my shoe.
+
+Diddley, Diddley, Dumpty;
+The cat ran up the plum tree.
+I'll wager a crown
+I'll fetch you down;
+Sing, Diddledy, Diddledy, Dumpty.
+
+I'll sing you a song
+ Though not very long
+ Yet I think it
+ As pretty as any.
+Put your hand in your purse
+ You'll never be worse
+ An give the poor singer
+ A penny.
+
+Rain, rain go away,
+Come again some April day,
+Little Johnny wants to play.
+
+Little Betty Blue, lost her holiday shoe;
+ What can little Betty do?
+Give her another to match the other,
+ And then she may walk in two.
+
+Here am I, little jumping Joan;
+When nobody's with me,
+I am always alone.
+
+Solomon Grundy, born on a Monday,
+Christened on Tuesday, married on Wednesday,
+Took ill on Thursday, worse on Friday,
+Died on Saturday, buried on Sunday,
+This is the end of Solomon Grundy.
+
+The man in the moon came tumbling down,
+ And asked his way to Norwich,
+He went by the south, and burnt his mouth
+ With supping cold pease-porridge.
+
+The North Wind doth blow,
+And we shall have snow,
+ And what will poor Robin do then?
+He will hop to a barn,
+And to keep himself warm
+ Will hide his head under his wint,
+ Poor thing.
+
+(Coals)
+Black we are, but much admired;
+Men seek for us till they are tired.
+We tire the horse, but comfort the man;
+Tell me this riddle if you can?
+
+I had a little hen, the prettiest ever seen,
+She washed me the dishes, and kept the house clean:
+She went to the mill to fetch me some flour,
+She brought it home in less than an hour;
+She baked me my bread, she brew'd me my ale,
+She sat by the fire and told many a fine tale.
+
+Bat Bat (clap hands) come under my hat,
+And I'll give you a slice of bacon;
+And when I bake, I'll give you a cake
+ If I am not mistaken.
+
+There was an old woman of Leeds;
+Who spent all her time in good deeds;
+ She worked for the poor
+ Till her finger were sore,
+This pious old woman of Leeds!
+
+Little Tommy Tittlemouse lived in a little house;
+He caught fishes in other men's dishes.
+
+As I was going to St. Ives,
+I met a man with seven wives;
+Every wife had seven sacks;
+Every sack had seven cats;
+Every cat had seven kits.
+Kits, cats, sacks and wives,
+How many were there going to St. Ives?
+
+
+There was a little man
+And he woo'd a little a little main,
+And he said "Little main will you wed, wed, wed,
+I have little more to say,
+Than will you, yea or nay,
+For the least said soonest men ded, ded, ded.
+The little maid replied
+(Some say a little sighed)
+But what shall we have for to eat, eat, eat,
+Will the love that you are so rich in
+Make a fire in the kitchen,
+Or the little God of Love turn the spit, spit, spit.

+We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002
+If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total
+will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end.

+The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks!
+This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers,
+which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users.
