An illustration from Sing-song : a nursery rhyme book, 1915, leaf 117
A ring upon her finger, Walks the bride,With the bridegroom tall and handsome At her side. A veil upon her forehead, Walks the bride,With the bridegroom proud and merry At her side. Fling flowers beneath the footsteps Of the bride ;Fling flowers before the bridegroom At her side. 95 … Ferry me across the water, Do, boatman, do. If you Ve a penny in your purse I 11 ferry you. 1 have a penny in my purse,And my eyes are blue ; So ferry me across the water,Do, boatman, do. Step into my ferry-boat, Be they black or blue,And for the penny in your purse I 11 ferry you. 96
