Of Pigs
LONG-TAILED pig and a short-tailed pig,
Or a pig without e’er a tail,
A sow pig, or a boar pig,
Or a pig with a curly tail.
Good King Arthur
WHEN good King Arthur ruled this land
He was a goodly king;
He stole three pecks of barley-meal
To make a bag-pudding.
A bag-pudding the king did make,
And stuff’d it well with plums;
And in it put great lumps of fat,
As big as my two thumbs.
The king and queen did eat thereof,
And noble men beside;
And what they could not eat that night,
The queen next morning fried.
