RELICS.

 

DCC,

AROUND the green gravel
the grass grows green.
And all the pretty maids
are plain to be seen;
Wash them with milk, and
clothe them with silk,
And write their names
with a pen and ink.
DCCI.
As I was going to sell
my eggs,

I met a man with bandy
legs,

Bandy legs and crooked
toes,—

I tripped up his heels,
and he fell on his nose.

DCCII.

OLD Sir Simon the
King,

And young Sir Simon
the ’squire,
And old Mrs. Hick-
about
Kicked Mrs. Kick-
about

Round about our coal

fire!
