A naughty boy came with his wee bow and arrow, (¢ris)
Determined to shoot this little cock sparrow, (cris)
A naughty boy, &c.
- Determined, &c.

This little cock sparrow shall make me a stew, (¢r7s)
And his giblets shall make me a little pie too; (és)
Oh, no! said the sparrow, I won’t make a stew,

So he flapped his wings and away he flew!

 

DCI.

BURNIE bee, burnie bee,

Tell me when your wedding be?
If it be to-morrow day,

Take your wings and fly away,
