61 … Pretty John Watts,We are troubled with rats,Will you drive them out of the house ?We have mice too in plenty,That feast in the pantry,But let them stay and nibble away,What harm in a little brown mouse ? 4 Shake a leg, wag a leg, when will you gang ?At midsummer, mother, when the days are lang. 62
