Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDEF GGHIGGG GJGKLMN GOGGPQC| This is a dark house very big | A |
| I made it myself | B |
| Cell by cell from a quiet corner | C |
| Chewing at the grey paper | C |
| Oozing the glue drops | D |
| Whistling wiggling my ears | E |
| Thinking of something else | F |
| - | |
| It has so many cellars | G |
| Such eelish delvings | G |
| U an round as an owl | H |
| I see by my own light | I |
| Any day I may litter puppies | G |
| Or mother a horse My belly moves | G |
| I must make more maps | G |
| - | |
| These marrowy tunnels | G |
| Moley handed I eat my way | J |
| All mouth licks up the bushes | G |
| And the pots of meat | K |
| He lives in an old well | L |
| A stoney hole He's to blame | M |
| He's a fat sort | N |
| - | |
| Pebble smells turnipy chambers | G |
| Small nostrils are breathing | O |
| Little humble loves | G |
| Footlings boneless as noses | G |
| It is warm and tolerable | P |
| In the bowel of the root | Q |
| Here's a cuddly mother | C |
