	10	MOTHER GOOSE'S MELODIES.
	When I was a bachelor, I lived by myself, And all the bread and cheese I got I put upon the shelf But the rats and the mice they made such a strife, I was forced to go to London to get myself a wife: The roads were so bad, and the lanes were so narrow, I was forced to take my wife home in a wheelbarrow. The wheelbarrow broke, and my wife had a fall, Down came the wheelbarrow, my wife and all.
			LITTLE Jack Horner Sat in a corner, Eating a Christmas pie; He put in his thumb And pull'd out a plum, And said, "What a brave boy am T!"
