Miss Jane had a bag, and a mouse was in it,She opened the bag, he was out in a minute;The Cat saw him jump, and run under the table,And the dog said, catch him, puss, soon as youre able. Cross Patch, draw the latch,Sit by the fire and spin; Take a cup, and drink it up,Then call your neighbours in.… … *V See-saw, Margery Daw,Sold her bed, and lay upon straw.Was not she a dirty slut,To sell her bed and lay in the dirt ? What care I how black I be ?Twenty pounds will marry meIf twenty wont, forty shall,Im my mothers bouncing girl. 96
