Forcing the City Gates
HE stuck a feather in his hat,
And hurried to the town,
And children met him with a horse,
For the gates
were
broken
down.
Home on the Mountain
ON a very high mountain
A family dwell,
Of ten of their rooms,
Nine of them fell.
The old man comes out
With a great deal of trouble;
His wife hobbles after,
Her body bent double.
Their three-legged dog
Is as thin as a rail,
And their rat-fearing cat
Is minus a tail.
