St. Nicholas/Volume 40/Number 2/Mother Goose

​
I

Ring a ring o' roses
A pocket full of posies!
Hush! Hush! Hush! Hush!
We all fall down together!

II

Little Tommy Tucker
Sings for his supper.
What shall he eat?
White bread and butter.

How can he cut it
Without e’er a knife?
How can he marry
Without e’er a wife?
