DripBiTy, dibbity, dibbity, doe,
Give me a pancake

And I'll go.

Please to give me

A bit of a fritter.

A yard of pudding is not an ell;
Not forgetting tweedle-dye,

A tailor’s goose will never fly.

GILLY Silly Jarter,
Who has lost a garter,
In a shower of rain?
The miller found it,
The miller ground it,
And the miller gave it to Silly again.

Hey diddle, dinketty, poppety, pet,

The merchants of London they wear scarlet ;
Silk in the collar, and gold in the hem,

So merrily march the merchantmen.
