Old Mother Goose whenA
She wanted to wanderB
Would ride through the airC
On a very fine ganderB
-
Mother Goose had a houseD
'Twas built in a woodE
Where an owl at the doorF
For sentinel stoodE
-
This is her son JackG
A plain looking ladH
He is not very goodE
Nor yet very badH
-
She sent him to marketI
A live goose he boughtJ
Here mother says heK
It will not go for noughtJ
-
Jack's goose and her ganderB
Grew very fondJ
They'd both eat togetherB
Or swim in one pondJ
-
Jack found one morningL
As I have been toldJ
His goose had laid himM
An egg of pure goldJ
-
Jack rode to his motherB
The news for to tellN
She call'd him a good boyO
And said it was wellN
-
Jack sold his gold eggP
To a rogue of a JewQ
Who cheated him out ofR
The half of his dueQ
-
Then Jack went a courtingL
A lady so gayS
As fair as the lilyK
And sweet as the MayS
-
The Jew and the SquireT
Came behind his backG
And began to belabourT
The sides of poor JackG
-
The old Mother GooseU
That instant came inV
And turned her son JackG
Into fam'd HarlequinW
-
She then with her wandJ
Touch'd the lady so fineX
And turn'd her at onceY
Into sweet ColumbineX
-
The gold egg into the seaK
Was thrown thenA
When Jack jump'd inV
And got the egg back againA
-
The Jew got the gooseU
Which he vow'd he would killZ
Resolving at onceY
His pockets to fillZ
-
Jack's mother came inV
And caught the goose soonA2
And mounting its backG
Flew up to the moonA2
