THE LION’S O-PIN-ION OF HIM-SELF.
A SONG OF SIX-PENCE.
Sing a song, a brand new song:
“Sing a song of six-pence,
A pock-et full of rye.”
John and Jim-my both picked some,
So they could have a pie.
And when they’d filled their pock-ets full,
Down in the field of rye,
They found some cun-ning lit-tle birds,
To put in-to the pie.
Six pret-ty lit-tle hid-den nests,
Down in the yel-low rye,
Held four-and-twen-ty ba-by birds,
E-nough to fill the pie.
They set them all with-in the dish,
Lined with a crust of rye;
But soon the four-and-twen-ty birds
Cried out in-side the pie.
Then Jim-my turned and looked at John,
And John took up the pie,
And back the lit-tle lad-dies went
In-to the field of rye.
The moth-er bird flew up and shrieked,
“O, have you baked that pie?
How can you bring the cru-el dish,
And eat it in the rye!” John—
And soon they ate the pie;
The birds flew out and found their nests
Down in the yel-low rye.
