m. Little Bo-peep fell fast asleep, And dreamt she heard them bleating; But when she awoke, she found it a joke,For still they all were fleeting. Then up she took her little crook, Determined for to find them ;She found them, indeed, but it made her heart bleed, For theyd left their tails behind… … CURLY LOCKS. 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! 26 MARY HAD A PRETTY BIRD.
