LITTLE BO-PEEP'S DISCOVERY. It happen'd one day, as Bo-peep did stray Under a meadow hard by : There she espy'd their tails, side by side, All hung on a tree to dry. LITTLE BO-PEEP'S REMEDY. She heaved a sigh, and wiped her eye, And over the hillocks went race-o; And tried what she could, as a shepherdess should, To tack again each to its place-o. ONE fine summer morning a Hen was picking peas in a farm-yard under a pea-stack, when a pea fell on her head such a thump that she thought the sky was falling. And she thought she would go to the court and tell the king that the sky was falling: so she gaed, and she gaed, and she gaed, and she met a Cock. And the Cock said, "Where are you going to-day, Henny-penny?" And she said, "Oh, Cocky-locky, the sky is falling, and I am going to tell the king." And Cocky-locky said,— "I will go with you, Henny-penny." So Cocky-locky and Henny-penny, they gaed, and they gaed, and they gaed, till they met a Duck. So the Duck said,- "Where are you going to-day, Cocky-locky and Henny-penny?" And they said, "Oh, Ducky-daddles, the sky is falling, and we are going to tell the king." And Ducky-daddles said,— "I will go with you, Cocky-locky and Hennypenny." So Ducky-daddles, and Cocky-locky, and Hennypenny, they gaed, and they gaed, and they gaed, till they met a Goose. |
