A MAN went a-hunting at Reigate,

And wished to leap over a high gate;
Says the owner, “Go round,
With your gun and your hound,

For you never shall leap over my gate.”

And a great net of cabbage,

The best meal I have had to-day
Is a good bowl of porridge.

My father and mother, my uncle and aunt,
Be all gone to Norton, but little Jack and I.
