Rhyme Scheme: A BCDC EFGF HIJI

This nursery song may probably commemorate a part of Tom Thumb's history extant in a Little Danish work treating of 'Swain Tomling a man no bigger than a thumb who would be married to a woman three ells and three quarters long ' See Mr Thoms' Preface to 'Tom Lincoln ' p xiA
-
I had a little husbandB
No bigger than my thumbC
I put him in a pint potD
And there I bid him drumC
-
I bought a little horseE
That galloped up and downF
I bridled him and saddled himG
And sent him out of townF
-
I gave him some gartersH
To garter up his hoseI
And a little handkerchiefJ
To wipe his pretty noseI
