 Little Dame Crump with her httle hair broom 
 One morning was sweeping her httle bed room, 
 And casting her little grey eyes on the ground, 
 In a httle sly corner 9 penny she found. 
 
Odds bobs ! cried the Dame, 
 While she started with surprise, 
 
 How lucky I am ! 
 
 Bless my heart, what a prize ! 
 
 To market I'll go. 
 And a Pig I will buy, 
 
 And little John Gubbins 
 
 Shall make him a sty. 
 
So she wash'd her face clean, 
 
 And put on her gown, 
 Then lock'd up her house, 
 And set off for the town, 
 
 Where to market she went, 
 
 And a bargain she made, 
 
 For a little white pig 
 The penny she paid.

When she purchased the pig, 
 
 She was puzzled to know, 
 How they both should get home 
 
 If the pig would not go : 
 So fearing that piggy 
 
 Might play her a trick, 
 She drove him along 
 
 With a little crab stick. 
 
Piggy ran till he came 
 
 To the foot of a hill, 
 Where a little bridge stood 
 
 O'er the stream of a Mill, 
 
 When he grunted, and squeak'd, 
 
 And no further would go ; 
 O fie ! little pig, 
 
 To serve little Dame so. 
 
 10 
 
Now she went to the Mill, 
 Where she borrowed a sack, 
 
 Which she popped the pig in, 
 And took on her back ; 
 
 Piggy cried to get out, 
 But the little Dame said. 
 
 If you wont go by fair means, 
 
 You then ipust be made. 
 
 11 
 
She soon to the end 
 
 Of her journey was come, 
 And was mightly pleased 
 
 When she got piggy home; 
 So she carried the pig 
 
 To his nice Httle sty, 
 And made him a bed 
 
 Of clean straw, snug and dry. 
 
 14 
 
With a handful of peas, 
 
 Little pig she then fed ; 
 Then she put on her nightcap, 
 
 And went into bed 
 
 Having first said her prayers, 
 Then she put out the light, 
 
 And being quite tired, 
 
 We'll bid her good night,

There was once a good lit-tle Boy, and his name 
 was Ed-ward, his Mam-raa gave him two Or-an- 
 ges, as he had been to School and learnt his Book. 
 Now this good Boy was not gree-dy, nor stin-gy, 
 
 nor cross, and 
 he said to him- 
 self, " Mv Sis- 
 ter and me will 
 eat this one Or- 
 ange, and I will 
 take the oth-er 
 to my Cou-sin 
 Hen-ry for he 
 is sick in bed.
