Mother Raven
Nursery Rhymes

by Peter Redvers

Jack and Jill
Jack and Jill chopped through the ice
To fetch a pail of water
The ice was thin
And Jack fell in
And Jill came sliding after.

Then up they popped
And home they hopped
Before their bodies froze,
Jack caught a chill
And got quite ill
And Jill lost all her toes.

An Old Woman
There was an old woman
Who lived in a tent,
Her children had left her
Her money was spent;
She walked in the bush
And checked all her snares,
She cooked up some rabbit
And kept saying her prayers.
