LXIII.

Dance to your daddy,
My little laddy!
Dance to your daddy,
My little lamb!
You shall have a fishy,
In a little dishy,
You shall have a fishy
When the boat comes in.


LXIV.

Tom shall have a new bonnet,
With ribbons so blue upon it.
With a hush-a-bye, and with a lull-a-bye,
And the moon is sailing all in the sky.


LXV.

Rock-a-bye, baby, thy cradle is green,
Father's a nobleman, mother's a queen.
And Betty's a lady, and wears a gold ring,
And Johnny's a drummer, and drums for the king.


LXVI.

Some little mice sat in a barn to spin;
Pussy came by, and popped her head in;
'Shall I come in, and cut your threads off?'
'Oh no, kind sir! you will snap our heads off.'
