Three Merry Rhymes

A Dog and a Cat

A dog and a cat went out together

To see some friends just out of town.

Said the cat to the dog,

“What do you think of the weather?”

“I think, ma’am, the rain will come down;

But don’t be alarmed, for I’ve an umbrella

That will shelter us both,”

said the amiable fellow.

Little Betty Blue

Lost her holiday shoe.

What shall little Betty do?

Buy her another

To match the other,

And then she’ll walk in two.

Deedle Deedle Dumpling, my son John,

Went to bed with trousers on,

One shoe off, one shoe on,

Deedle Deedle Dumpling, my son John.
