Wee Willie Winkie runs through the town, Upstairs and downstairs, in his nightgown, Rapping at the window, cry- ing through the lock,

"Are the children in their beds? now it's
eight o'clock."

---

I had a little husband,
No bigger than my thumb,
I put him in a pint-pot,
And then I bade him drum.

I bought a little horse,
That galloped up and down;
I bridled him, and saddled him.
And sent him out of town.

I gave him little garters,
To garter up his hose,
And a little handkerchief,
To wipe his little nose.
