A BOOK OF NURSERY RHYMES

Hey ding a ding,
what shall I sing?
How many holes in
a skimmer?
Four and twenty,—
I'm feeling quite
empty;
Pray, mamma, give
me some dinner.


Pease porridge hot,
Pease porridge cold,
Pease porridge in the
pot,
Nine days old.
Some like it hot,
Some like it cold,
Some like it in the
pot,
Nine days old.
