IV. THE NUT TREE
I had a little nut tree, nothing would it bear
But a silver nutmeg, and a golden pear.
The King of Spain's daughter came to visit me,
And all was because of my little nut tree.
I skipped over the water, I danced over the sea,
And all the birds of the air, they couldn't catch me.
V. THE FOX
The Fox went out one moonshiny night
And prayed for the moon to give him good light,
For he'd many a mile to go that night
Before he came to his den, O!
Chorus—Den, O! Den, O!
For he'd many a mile to go that night
Before he came to his den, O!
At last he came to a large farmyard,
Where the ducks and the geese cackled, all afeared.
'The best of all shall grease my beard
Before I get to my den, O!'
Chorus—Den, O! etc.
