A Little Pretty Pocket-book/Boys and Girls come out to Play

by John Newbery

Boys and Girls come out to Play.

After a sultry Summer's Day,
When the Moon shines, and Stars are gay;
The Nymphs and Swains well pleas'd advance,
And spend the Ev'ning in a Dance.

Rule of Life.

Reflect To-day upon the Last,
And freely own thy Errours past.
